Saw this on Bisonville and thought it was pretty interesting to see what players were receiving for playing in the conference tournaments.

Of all the "Big 6 " major conferences,the Pac 10 is getting by on the cheap - a backpack and a bottle of Dr. Pepper ? - C'mon man !

To be fair, it's the best kind of backpack ... one full of snacks.

For some reason this seems like a HUGE double standard on behalf of the NCAA.

These are gifts not afforded other students at these schools. Seems like an NCAA rules violation. Maybe all teams that play in conference tourneys should sit out their first five games next season.

The players have to sit out next year, but the coach that knowingly allowed it only has to miss the exhibition season.
