The report of yesterday's Board of Directors meeting is out. Highlights:
• Proposals 2006-040 and 2006-087 are headed to the 2008 NCAA Convention for a membership vote as a result of the Board taking no further action to change its position.
• Proposal 2007-009 was amended by the Board to change the 33% athletically-related-aid minimum to a 25% countable-aid minimum. Override requests are due on October 8.
• The Board defeated Proposal 2006-017-B, which would have extended the rules about sports wagering activities to pools and fantasy leagues which did not have a fee to enter. It's also in the override period.
• The Board adopted a proposal (2007-010) to put a four-year moratorium on expansion of Division I membership as well as a couple of proposals (2007-011 and 2007-012, the latter will require a vote at the 2008 NCAA Convention before it becomes effective) that have to do with the NCAA Executive Committee's existing authority and responsibilities. These are also in the override period.
• Some of these proposals aren't available yet on LSDBi; we'll link to them when they are. In the meantime, you can use our Manual Updates chart and an appendix to the Board's report.
