Bear,
Maybe I should have said, that is most often "the reason" given. I do agree that in reality many of the rulings actually result in the complete opposite.
The other ruling regarding holding an event with testing on a NCAA campus, just makes no sense what-so-ever. You'll just see more of these events held in professional parks or colleges that are not affected by the rule. If either of these things help players or help NCAA schools, I fail to understand how.
But, IMO the problem won't be solved by fighting over these issues. We know we can't, and don't want to, beat the NCAA. However, there are people who work for the NCAA that are very reasonable and understanding. Listening, adjusting, and doing what's necessary to conform to the rules is what is most productive.
