Have you ever wondered about the rule regarding championship rings in college? The answer is probably “no,” but please humor me.
Personally, I am very interested in the hardware that teams and individuals are awarded each year. Naturally then, I am interested in the rules regarding these trophies, rings, etc. So, when I came across this particular NCAA rule today, I figured I would share it with everyone else.

When I quote an entire article in one of my posts, I always feel as if I should start by saying, “I hate doing this.” However, in this case, there are simply far too many things in the article that I would like to highlight.

It has been my opinion that the NCAA, and President Mark Emmert, used their position to strong-arm Penn State into the heavy sanctions that were levied upon the school’s football program last month.

After yesterday’s announcement by the NCAA that it was levying heavy penalties against Penn State University, I have been scratching my head trying to figure out how to respond.
I still plan on coming up with my own personal response to this mess, but in the mean time, I am thrilled to see what some of the nation’s top college football writers have said. While my own thoughts are not completely formulated yet, I know which way I am leaning, and it’s not in the same direction as the NCAA.
