NCAA DIVISION I MANAGEMENT COUNCIL AMENDS EFFECTIVE DATE FOR AMATEURISM DIRECTIVE



?



?



NASHVILLE, TENNESSEE---



During its January 11, 2004, meeting the Division I Management Council determined that its endorsement of the effective date for the new amateurism standard for transfer student-athletes should be amended. The July 2002 directive from the management council stated any student-athlete who enrolled in an NCAA institution after August 1, 2003, and had signed a professional contract would fall under a new reinstatement standard. The management council determined the new standard, which makes student-athletes permanently ineligible to play a sport if they sign a professional contract that makes them a professional in that sport, unintentionally harmed transfer student-athletes by not applying the former standard for those student-athletes already enrolled at a collegiate institution before the effective date.



?



The new directive made it clear to the student-athlete reinstatement staff and committee that any student-athlete who is in conflict with the amateurism rules dealing with professionalizing themselves, and enrolled at an NCAA institution after the effective date, would be ineligible to play that sport. The new standard also alleviated the two-prong standard that was previously applied to student-athletes seeking reinstatement. By amending the directive, student-athletes who enrolled at any college prior to August 1, 2003, will be evaluated under the intent-to-professionalize standard which was previously used.
