The university announced Feb. 17 that five student-athletes on the baseball team had committed secondary violations and would be ineligible for competition until the NCAA completes the reinstatement process.
I'm not anti NCAA or anything but this is insane. The overwhelming majority of college athletes play fantasy football. They probably won a few hundred dollars playing amongst themselves. Schools and the NCAA have better things to worry about kids playing fantasy football.
