This is something the NCAA should look into(of course, the new SEC commissioner will also now head the committee on infractions):
Williams called on Alabama's board to eliminate its athletic committee, which must approve major financial decisions related to UAB athletics.
“Were the members of the Committee not Board members they would meet the NCAA definition of a booster for the University of Alabama,” Williams said. “The arrangement on the UA System Board is the only instance in NCAA Division 1 athletics where the boosters of one school have complete control over the athletic program of another Division 1 program. This committee has worked against the best interest of UAB athletics for many years and this practice must stop immediately.”
