    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">SOUTH KINGSTOWN, R.I. -- The University of Rhode Island has reported six possible rules violations by its men's basketball program to the NCAA.




    The school, following an internal investigation which began last March, acknowledged possible violations during the coaching tenures of Jim Harrick and Jerry DeGregorio from 1997-2000. The violations were announced by the school Saturday. They included a coach giving about $250 in cash to a player and a former secretary in the men's basketball office typing course papers for players.


    It also acknowledged several players used telephones and computers in the men's basketball office without authorization, and a member of the coaching staff gave a ride to a player.</div>

    Is it just me,or are some of the NCAA's 'rules' absolutely ridiculous? I mean a coach gave someone a ride and it's a violation? That's completely stupid!

    Yea, some of the rules are pretty absurd...But I will say that Harrick himself has done some shady stuff in the past...

    Oh no doubt I agree....but the NCAA needs to either lighten up on this or give the kids some cash to use for everyday life. You know they makin' the cheddar off these young cats.
