He was 67. “Myles Brand was a dear friend and a great academic leader. He was a tireless advocate for the student-athlete,” said Michael Adams, presi- dent of the University of Georgia and chair of the NCAA Executive Committee. “Indeed, he worked to ensure that the student was first in the student- athlete model. He will be greatly missed.” By The NCAA News and New Media Staffs HAROLD LEE MILLER / FOR NCAA A LEGACY OF LEADERSHIP 3 IN MeMorIaM • Myles BraNd Legacy continued from page 3 Brand, who began his tenure in Janu- ary 2003 after having served as president at Indiana and Oregon, died at his Indianapolis home. He was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in December 2008 and announced his condition to the NCAA Executive Committee, the national office staff and the leadership at NCAA member schools in January, saying the long-term prognosis for his condition was “not good.” Brand remained committed to leading the Association even through his illness, guiding the national office staff and communicating with presidential leadership up until the final days.

Knight Foundation. Under the strong leadership of its founding co- chairs, the Rev. Theodore M. Hesburgh and Dr. William C. Friday, the Commission set forth to put pressure on the NCAA to clean up its own act before Congress stepped in to do it for them. Subsequent to their tenure the Commission strayed far off the course they set. Can colleges control the NCAA? The answer, plain and simple, is no. Neither can the Foundation’s Commission on Intercollegiate Athletics as it is presently structured—it needs to be fixed first. To this end, The Drake Group has urged the president and CEO of the Knight Foundation to take a hard look at the Commission, arguing that the Commission has not only moved off mission, but has morphed into an unofficial arm of the NCAA as well—it seems time for critical introspection. This collection of commentaries tells how and why this situation developed and what might be done about it.

    April 9, 2008 President Myles Brand National Collegiate Athletic Association 700 W. Washington Street P.O. Box 6222 Indianapolis, Indiana 46206-6222 Dear President Brand: The undersigned NCAA college presidents and athletic directors write because of our concern for the values of higher education and sports and the health and safety of college students who we seek to mentor and protect. This communication reflects the views of our colleagues at more than 280 NCAA schools that alcohol advertising and college sports are a bad mix. We respectfully request that the issue of televised beer advertising during the NCAA tournament once again be considered by the NCAA’s Division I Board of Directors and the Executive Committee in their upcoming meetings. The most recent discussion of the issue occurred in 2005, with no change in NCAA policy. Since then, beer advertising during the games continues to undermine the many positive attributes of college sports and taints the NCAA’s status as an inspirational youth brand. We find it odd that the NCAA’s advertising and promotional standards purport to “exclude those advertisements and advertisers…that do not appear to be in the best interests of higher education and student-athletes,” yet allow beer advertising. We note that NCAA policies explicitly exclude alcohol advertising, yet permit ads for beverages with alcohol content of 6% or less. NCAA policies also impose limitations on the number and running time for ads during the final tournament games. These “restrictions” favor form over substance. Given the persistent problems caused by underage and excessive college drinking, much of it in the form of beer, we find it inconceivable that the NCAA’s profiting from beer promotion during the telecasts of college basketball games comports with the best interests of higher education, sports, or student welfare.

  • Collegiate Athletic Reform in the Age of Academic Capitalism
    Journal of Issues in Intercollegiate Athletics, 2009, 2, 76-92 76 © 2009 College Sport Research Institute Clashing Models of Commercial Sport in Higher Education: Implications for Reform and Scholarly Research ____________________________________________________________ Allen Sack University of New Haven ____________________________________________________________ Big-time college sport has successfully weathered one wave of reform after another for over 100 years. Yet, passionate debates continue regarding the educational impact of highly commercialized sport in American universities. The major purpose of this study is to identify the issues and assumptions that divide reformers and reform groups. It also makes explicit the conceptual models—intellectual elitist, academic capitalist, and athletes rights—they use to interpret the reality of commercialized college sport. This study does not test the validity of each model. Rather it explores logical connections between these models and reform policies likely to be pursued by those who embrace them. These conceptual models can also serve as building blocks for theory and future scholarly research. No sooner had collegiate sport emerged as a popular form of commercial entertainment in the latter nineteenth century, than it spawned movements for reform. A number of scholars (e.g., Benford, 2007; Craughron, 2001; Gerdy, 2006a; Smith, 2009) have chronicled the scores of reform initiatives and movements that have been launched since that time. A close look at the literature reveals that early reformers viewed commercialism (making money from college sport) and professionalism (paying players to compete) as a threat to academic values and integrity (e.g. Savage, 1929). College sport has weathered one wave of reform after another for over 100 years.
