Jim Moras refusal to release more information
Byron Buxton Jersey about Brett Hundleys injury has over whether college athletics should have uniform injury reports like the NFL. The advantages seem obvious. It helps the media in reporting and decreases the chance that gamblers or bookies have acce s to inside information. The downsides are minor: a little more work for trainers and sports information directors putting together the reports and the lo s of some competitive advantage for coaches. But if everyone is releasing the same type of injury reports at roughly the same time, the gain or lo s of an advantage is minimal.But injury reports are just the tip of the iceberg. The NCAA has a growing divide between schools that are relatively open and transparent and those that can get away with not releasing much of anything. This gap is driven by open records laws and interpretations of the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) on individual campuses. The result is that
Jason Castro Jersey public schools are under varying levels of obligation to release information which private institutions can sit on.This leads to more and more battles over the release of information. Media file open records requests for information that might involve a specific student and the school refuses to release it, arguing either that it is not covered by the open records laws or FERPA prevents them from releasing the information. Further complicating the matter
Justin Morneau Jersey is that in many cases, student-athletes sign broad FERPA releases, granting the institution permi sion to release information for many different purposes. This has never seriously be challenged before by a media outlet. If a student-athletesigns a FERPA release does the institution now have the discretion to make the decision to release the information or is it fair game in open records requests?Injury reports might best be left to individual conferences or sport committees but the NCAA should have a single national policy for the release of many other types of information. All schools should regularly publish their NCAA violations. All athletes should have
Glen Perkins Jersey their major published if they have granted the institution permi sion to publish this information. Financial data, especially salaries for coaches and top administrators, should be released by all institutions, not just public schools.There would
Bert Blyleven Jersey still be differences from one school to the next since it seems unlikely that an NCAA policy would not be as broad as the most aggre sive open records laws. But those differences would be minor compared to the current situation where some schools can get away publishing nothing and others must release much more information. Better for the NCAA and its members to expand what gets released now rather than waiting for Congre s or state legislatures to decide what should or shouldnt be public.
Saturday played out about as expected. The game to watch this week is Thursday's Virginia Tech at Georgia Tech. If the Jackets remain undefeated -- and with the league's elite not facing difficult tests this week -- Week 6 (Oct. 5) is sizing up to be a big one for the ACC.

We knew they would be in these spots, but it's time to watch Georgia Tech and Maryland -- both just outside the Top 25. The Jackets rallied past North Carolina with a dominating second and face three tough tests in Virginia Tech on Thursday, followed by trips to Miami and BYU. The Terps were impre sive in their 37-0
