Mark Emmert Keeps Embarrassing NCAA

Seth Davis of CBS spoke to Mark Emmert and had some interesting things to say about the Enes Kanter situation. Here is the video:

[PRBREAK]

How can he say that no one was recruiting Kanter when had committed to Washington, the school he is the president of? Several of the Kentucky media let the NCAA have it after the halftime comments.

NCAA prez not helping the cause w/ ridiculous comments about Kanter case. He’s undermining the sound reasoning it had for ruling ineligible

You can’t say schools didn’t recruit him b/c there were obvious issues when school he was prez of led the recruiting charge.

@[URL=”http://hootsuite.com/dashboard#”][COLOR=#239cb9]SethDavisHoops[/COLOR][/URL] Not true. Kanter decommitted from UW in February 2010. Buzz about potential issues strong when he arrived in US summer 09.

Seth Davis also tweeted about the comments, I guess since his twitter was getting flooded from the Big Blue Nation.

For @[URL=”http://hootsuite.com/dashboard#”][COLOR=#239cb9]tsnmike[/COLOR][/URL] and UK fans tweeting me, Kanter committed to Washington, but UW staff backed off after hearing from others there wld be probs.

Kanter never visited UW and never applied for admission. That is a fact. Will have Emmert’s comments in full in my SI.com tomorrow.

Bottom line: I wish Kanter were playing. There is plenty of room to criticize decision. But please, enough with the conspiracy theories.

The only advice I have for Mark Emmert…You don’t have anything intelligent to say, don’t say anything at all.
