Judge throws out judgement against NCAA

http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/news/story?id=3375206 Gordon said in a 13-page opinion that the multimillion-dollar verdict wasn't supported by evidence, and he ruled the award "is the result of passion or prejudice." He also sided with several other arguments by the NCAA, including a claim that jurors at the trial in Scottsboro heard improper instructions. An attorney for Keller, Archie Lamb, said he would either ask Gordon to reconsider the decision or appeal directly to the Alabama Supreme Court. "We just have to decide which is the better course of action," said Lamb. The NCAA did not immediately return a message seeking comment. The NCAA portrayed the fan as giving "$100 handshakes" to a recruit and having improper contacts with other Crimson Tide recruits. So people in Alabama think that breaking NCAA rules is alright. Nice.
