Some of the NCAA’s long-standing restrictions that have kept a firm line between amateur and professional athletes are no more.

The Commission on College Basketball punted on perhaps the most important issue it faced: the status of players as amateurs and their inability to earn any money from their likeness and their performances as an athlete.

Former Maryland men’s basketball player Diamond Stone’s name appears on a document that alleges he received money from an agent while he was in college, according to a report by Yahoo Sports.

"It's a completely different world there, and for a long time, no one wanted to admit that," the former Terps coach said.

It was a tumultuous spring off the field for the NCAA, and the effect could impact college lacrosse in substantial ways.

The NCAA may need to mandate new "dead periods" to rein in the time demands on college athletes that increasingly pull them away from the classroom, NCAA president Mark Emmert said Wednesday.

Maryland athletic director Kevin Anderson deserves some credit for helping get Dez Wells eligible before the Terps take the court at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn on Friday night against defending national champion Kentucky.

Experts say handling of case will affect future NCAA infractions

Anyone expecting Penn State's football program to be spared serious punishment for its involvement in the Jerry Sandusky child sex rape case, Monday's unprecedented sanctions by the NCAA were shocking, even for some PSU alums in Harford County who have been angered at the Sandusky scandal.

Punishment should have served to shift Penn State's focus, not make it harder for Nittany Lions to win football games.

There were times Gary Williams second-guessed his decision to help rebuild a Maryland program still reeling from the scandal surrounding the cocaine-induced death of All-American Len Bias three years before, and the turmoil that enveloped the Terps during Bob Wade's tenure.
