This is just so annoying that the NCAA would reject their appeal. Let alone the NCAA is around due to Colleges and Universities electing to be a member of it. If they tick off enough Universities, it would be interesting to see what would happen if the members started to drop out of the NCAA. There is no necessity to be a member, and it would in no way affect the educational certifications that those universities have. I know the University of Illinois is also appealing, and it will be interesting to see what the outcome is.
