It only hurts the student athlete. But that is what the NCAA always tries to do.

all i think this is is the ncaa being afraid to govern the scc conference because they dont want an compatition

It only hurts the kids whose parents can afford to haul them around the country for camps. Stupid ruling by the NCAA and those six conferences. 2 that wanted to stop it and 4 who can't afford to do

This is proof that the SEC and ESPN are ruling College Football, and not in a good way. There are a lot of kids in the South that live in real poverty. They can't afford to go anywhere to Camp more than a short drive from home. Which is how the SEC and ACC like it.

Mike Leach said it best. The only reason anyone would want them banned is either they're lazy or they're selfishly guarding their recruiting area.

Anything that limits the opportunities for student athletes is a move in the wrong direction by the NCAA, and this limits opportunities. In addition, with official paid JR year visits not available yet, it is difficult for NU to get players onto campus until their SR year, which can be too late.

What's wrong with giving young men exposure to opportunities?

it does not help potential student athletes, especially those without the money to travel. Another door slams in the face of the lower income. A compromise between no camps and going wild with camps should have been reached.

Where is the democratic process. How about conducting a panel of all conferences to see if it is a viable option to create a bit more parody among them. Rather, let the powers that may be; ie SEC- inparticular Alabama Nick Saben...who, o BTW have 2 private jets to use to go after 4/5 star HS athlete

Underprivileged high school kids' exposure will be diminished or limited to just those universities in their region, and will not see additional opportunities/offers from other outside universities.

The only reason this has happened is that the SEC is trying to protect its territory at the expense of the student-athlete. The SEC wants to cherry pick and leave the also rans scrambling for schools to attend,

It's difficult to grasp how a regulation or restriction imposed from the top down can improve competition and help the quality of play. But that's not what they had in mind, of course.

Did the NCAA indicate why this was in the best interest of the Student-Athlete? Satellite camps provided more opportunities for the Student Athlete to gain exposure to coaches and programs they otherwise wouldn't. This is the SEC tail wagging the NCAA dog, protecting its 'turf'.

For northern schools, it is a chance to have greater visibility in the warmer climates. The southern schools do not want to lose recruits to the northern schools running camps in their back yard!

Because we as fans should let the team wear whatever makes them excited and quit bringing up times 30 plus years ago like the uniforms had anything to do with how the games turned out.

Traditional is much more intimidating. One color uniforms make players look smaller (except for all white.)

Bad choice and ugly. For those old enough to remember, we got Irvin Fryar out of New Jersey because he looked better in our uniforms than the ugly Penn State uniforms. Why change for the sake of change when you have the better all ready in place. Sounds like the management of Cracker Barrel.

I do not believe some of the glaring problems with the run defense have not been fixed, and Akron will exploit them.

The D-line against Cincy wasn't overly impressive, our run game was relatively unproductive, and we had some lucky breaks (even if good play contributed). The next two weeks will be important for closing gaps; I don't think we'll wallop Akron quite by 30+ points. I'm guessing we end up 17
