Last month Greg Christopher became chairman of the NCAA Division I Committee on Infractions. I didn’t know whether to congratulate the Xavier athletic director or say a prayer. Someone within the quasi-amateur jock-ocracy must not like Christopher at all.
Thankless job? Being head of the COI is like being a weatherman who only predicts hurricanes. He might be great at his job, but who wants to hear about hurricanes all the time? Even Christopher admits college athletics is “an industry in disruption."
The COI doesn’t investigate the rule breakers.
