Interesting news out of the NCAA, especially in light of the Knight Commission report:
The Division I Recruiting and Athletics Personnel Issues Cabinet has proposed legislation that would curb the number of noncoaching staff members with responsibilities specific to several high-profile sports.
After extensive study and surveys of the membership, the cabinet has sponsored three proposals addressing noncoaching personnel and setting specific limits. The proposals would:
- Limit noncoaching staff dedicated to football teams in the Football Bowl Subdivision to four.
- Limit noncoaching staff dedicated to football teams in the Football Championship Subdivision to two.
- Limit noncoaching staff dedicated to basketball teams (men’s or women’s) to one.
