Re: Harbaugh Wants to Have a Week of Michigan Spring Practice in FL; SEC Says "Hold U
I remember reading once that the difference in their minds at the time was that football was beginning to influence decisions made within the schools, so they opted out.The Ivy League does not participate in the FCS playoffs (and has a ten game schedule) because they believe it interferes with school. However, for some reason, they participate in the NCAA basketball tournament and every other postseason sport the league sponsors. And they sponsor a lot of sports.
As for the original topic, this really doesn't bother me much.
