Selby plays and Kanter sits?

Well today the NCAA loses what little bit of integrity they had left by letting Kansas stand out freshman Josh Selby play after sitting the first few games in this young college basketball season, and Enes Kanter still sitting on the sidelines with no decision in sight on his NCAA review/appeal! It's appalling the way this whole situation has been handled by the all mighty NCAA. They found that Kanter took 33,000 and some change more than what was allowed, and they think he is not an amateur. While Josh Selby took impermissible benefits from a known agent, and his punishment is to sit out a few games and pay back some money and all is good? Did I mention the way he is paying back the money? Oh, they are allowing him to use money from his scholarship that supposed to help buy books and whatever else he needs for an EDUCATION!!! While Kanter and his parents have told the NCAA they would pay back whatever amount that they needed to out of their own pocket! Just doesn't seem right what is going on here. They say he's not an amateur, but yet he turned down a multi-million dollar contract to play overseas to come to America to play and get an EDUCATION!!! and they punish him for that? Give me a break, there is no rhyme or reason to what the NCAA does or decides (hello Mr. Cam Newton) and innocent kids pay the price! SAD!!! GC
