huh, interesting. I wonder if her parents are accepting the money or if they found some kind of loop hole. I'm sure there's a loophole in the system for the family to get the money and keep her amateur status intact.

""The NCAA staff's decision was made within this process and based on a combination of considerations," James said in the statement. "This waiver narrowly extends the rules -- which allow Davis to accept the payment and still be eligible in any other sport -- to include baseball. The NCAA staff also considered the historically limited opportunities for women to participate in professional baseball. In addition, Davis is much younger than when the vast majority of the prospect rules apply. While this situation is unusual, the flexible approach utilized in this decision is not.""
 
That still doesn't explain why she's OK, lol. Fuckin NCAA...

This is from a story several years ago about a college football player for Colorado:
 
NCAA rules allow athletes to accept salaries as professionals in other sports, but they aren't allowed to accept money from sponsors. The NCAA has held firm in its stance, ruling last week that Bloom willfully violated NCAA rules by accepting endorsements.
 
Talk about selective enforcement...

Yea the point is their rules are batshit crazy and archaic, but they pick and choose when they want to enforce those rules.
