I don't see this happening, I think the NCAA is way over stepping its bounds
and trying to become the Morality Police the end all to be all.
I can see this law not going over well at all. For instance the WCHA final Five
which is played in the EXCEL energy center would take a major hit finacially,
so would the Ralph as well as the Kohl Center in Wisconsin. I think the NCAA is
going to get a lot of push back from the member schools on these STUPID RULINGS.
