The NCAA stinks – we all know that by now. It shouldn’t really be news to anyone.
The good news is that the NCAA, a money-hungry corporation which is run by soulless ghouls, will often go out of its way to remind us of how much they stink.
The latest example of this comes during the coronavirus pandemic that we’re all doing our best to get through.
Clemson QB Trevor Lawrence and his girlfriend, Marissa Mowry, college soccer player, started a GoFundMe to raise money for people affected by the coronavirus. They raised over $2,600 when…. the NCAA forced them to shut it down.
For real.
The State has more on the NCAA’s stupid decision:
Lawrence and Mowry started a GoFundMe fund-raising page for coronavirus victims Monday afternoon, but it was shut down the same day after raising $2,670. Mowry said through a video on her Instagram account that they were forced to deactivate the page. A Clemson official confirmed that Lawrence and Mowry were not allowed to have the GoFundMe account active due to NCAA rules that prohibit using name, image and likeness for crowd funding.
I mean, come on NCAA. Be better than that. Be so much better than that.
Thankfully, fans aren’t giving the NCAA a pass on this:
NCAA-always on top of what really matters.
