    New NCAA President

    Multiple outlets reporting that Charlie Baker will replace Mark Emmert as NCAA President on March 1. Baker is currently the governor of Massachusetts. His term expires in January.

    Hopefully this translates into better leadership for whatever the NCAA becomes down the road.

          It couldn't get any worse than the direction that we are heading.

              They hired a career politician with no sports experience outside of playing baseball at Harvard. It can most certainly get worse.

                  That could be bad or it could be good. That organization is in desperate need of leadership without a historical way of doing things perspective to shake up the culture. Perhaps the new president will strike up a TV deal with Amazon to create an NCAA driven football playoff and bypass CFP Committee. The NCAA really missed the boat on this when tv revenue was just starting to bloom in late 80's/early 90's.
                  Red and Black are more of an Attitude than merely a color combination.

                          Baker's tenure began Wednesday. What are the main priorities for his first 100 days?

                              This is an all time quote regarding Emmert.

                              Multiple members of the D-1 Council have raved about new NCAA president Charlie Baker. “He’s smart, he listens, and you can tell that he truly wants to help,” one told me. “There’s no air of arrogance with him.” Not exactly the same description of his predecessor.

                                  Charlie Baker is getting the first big test to his administration and whether the NCAA is about become sane. This case is going to be one to watch regarding the transfer portal and eligibility for Aziz Bandaogo and Jamille Reynolds on the men's basketball side of things. It's not quite the same scenario but if the case doesn't come out in favor of the athlete, all the two time non-graduate transfers are screwed.
