Quote:These are unprecedented times in college basketball. The confluence of a federal investigation into the sport and a decline in both the level of play and public interest has thrust the sport to a crossroads. The specter of wholesale change within the next few months looms over the sport, as the traditional avenues for recruiting, agent involvement, compensation and player eligibility are all being examined for change.
The NCAA Commission on College Basketball, led by former U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, has been tasked to make substantive changes to the way we operate college basketball. The recommendations are slated to be made in April. I think theres a lot of pent-up desire for this extent of reform, Pac-12 commissioner Larry Scott told Yahoo Sports in a phone interview. We havent seen it in the past. I think theres some quiet optimism. I sense theres enough of a sense of crisis and need that well get meaningful things done now.
