The Death Pool – Special Report – Another Example Of Bad Advice Ruining NCAA Opportunity

Well kids, you are all gonna love this one.  After the boss penned a nice little piece on Adviser yesterday and the five signs you got yourself a bad one.

You all know how hard we are on general acts of stupidity here.  We try to keep you informed of the rules, and its fun to point out the idiots that break them.

So, when we heard about the NCAA suspending goalie Tyler Johnson for a year, after committing to Maine back in December, we just had to do a little digging into the situation.  Johnson has a reputation as a good kid, so it was a little surprising.

So why was he suspended?

Ummmmmmm yeah, well he played 11 minutes in an OHL exhibition game.  That’s right kids, ELEVEN MINUTES.

So now all you boys who think the NCAA wont find out when you break the rules know another example.  The rules are the rules.  Follow them or face the consequences.

Now, because the NCAA wont back off its stance, Johnson is not going to Maine.  He is going to go to the OHL and be the backup with the London Knights.  So, the NCAA loses another solid player and NHL prospect.

But wait a minute.  Who gave this kid the go ahead to attend an OHL camp to begin with?  Who told this kid it was alright to play in an exhibition game?  Because if you even dress for an exhibition game you are toast as far as the NCAA is concerned.  You font even have to play, all it takes is being on a game roster.

Hmmmmmmm, you think he had a bad Adviser in his corner?  But hey, who cares if some yahoo is new to the Adviser business right?  Who cares if you go with the cheapest guy on the market?  Its not gonna make a difference except in maybe the amount of experience and education you are paying for.

See, I was just told about another kid that was drafted into the NAHL this year that is going to get caught.  Yep, a few Major Junior pre season games that only a few people are aware of.  Oh, yeah, one of those few people is an NCAA compliance officer.  Hmmmmmm, I wonder who he got such bad advice from?

So, who wants to go to camp next week?  I mean, I have been in training for this scouting stuff for two years now, I could hook you kids up.  You Tier III guys all deserve to be in Major Junior camps, so just give me a call at 1-800- DUMBASS, and I can get you set up.
