- This is just astounding. A basketball player playing basketball. A real “threat to integrity.”Source: Houston senior guard Rob Gray has been suspended one game by the NCAA for participating in a church rec league game this offseason. He will not play in @UHCougarMBK season opener tonight against McNeese State.
- The players provide the NCAA members free labor that is sold for billions during the entire season.The NCAA provides free wi-fi to student-athletes at all of the team hotels during the DI men's basketball championship.

- UCF is 13-0 after beating Auburn, but had no shot to compete for the National Championship. Every game counts, huh? Not so much. Scott Frost and UCF should’ve been in the playoff.
