Not sure why the NCAA micro-manages at this level.

Can't put it on the jersey's, but they can emblazon it all over the court/arena. EMU had the #EMUFB hashtag all over Rynearson Stadium last fall, including painted on the field.

Probably don't want the uni's to look like a NASCAR drivers suit.

Shocked some players don't tattoo that junk on themselves with some of the crap they wear.

It's not micro-managing - there are rules for what can/cannot be on jerseys, the sizes of the names/numbers, colors, etc.

Apparently you don't know what the term "micro-managing" means. Or else you're a contrarian ***** like flipper. Or both.

RE: Akron denied permission to use twitter name on unis
Is there something that I'm missing here..,

Quote:Under NCAA rules, teams are only allowed to have the name of a player, institution or mascot on the back of its jersey. The NCAA apparently has been reluctant to waive this rule under any circumstances because it fears there will be too many frivolous requests for exceptions.

Granted that they are both from college football and the proceeds went to the Wounded Warrior Project, but neither of these jerseys fit the definition of "player, institution or mascot."

Missed two perfectly good opportunities to call someone a "beta male". He NEVER misses an opportunity to call someone a "beta male".

Look, when I first saw "beta male" posted I thought it was a newsletter for retro video geeks.

Yep, I think those are the exact attributes to which he refers when he refers to his online friends as "beat males".
