    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">SALT LAKE CITY -- The NCAA on Friday gave Utah permission to continue using its Utes nickname, just hours before the school's nationally televised football game against Arizona.

    The university sent a seven-page appeal to the college sports governing body Wednesday, asking that it be removed from a list of 18 schools subject to restrictions because they have American Indian nicknames, mascots or images.

    On Friday, the NCAA approved the removal of Utah and also the Central Michigan University Chippewas from the list.

    They really need to just forget about this rule if they are going to take all these schools off the ban list.
