Why Rutgers Blinked; New York Times, 4/5/13
Joe Nocera, Why Rutgers Blinked; Why Rutgers Blinked:
"Pernetti is said to be one of the bright lights of college sports. Around the same time as he was dealing with both the Big Ten and the Rice video, he was on a panel at New York University School of Law at which he spoke — passionately, it seemed to me (I was on the same panel) — about the importance of putting the needs of the “student-athlete” first, and hiring “the right people.” Yet, faced with a moment of truth, he blinked.
Just like Joe Paterno, another supposed good guy, blinked. Just like they all blink when their professed ideals bump up against the ever-increasing pressure to generate cold, hard cash.
The N.C.A.A., it turns out, isn’t the only hypocrite in college sports."
