I don't see how the NCAA can allow things like conference championship or national championship rings. Don't they frown upon athletes getting gifts based on their athletic prowess? I guess if it is the NCAA that is giving the gifts it is illegal, but if a NDSU booster were to give each of the players a nice handmade case to display those rings it would be illegal.

The school pays for the rings, not the NCAA. The NCAA only sets the limit on what the school can spend on them and the school then raises funds through donations to pay the bill.

That makes sense. Well, as much sense as any item that the NCAA has it's hands on can make. So, the NCAA is okay with the school rewarding athletes after the fact, but the ability of schools to reward athletes (stipends) is still a sore subject. Interesting.
Congrats on the rings. As far as being jealous of them, as someone wrote earlier, I don't want one of those. Now if it were Yellow and Blue with a rabbit on them, then I would be jealous.
If they were going for large and gaudy they succeeded.
Players just wanted it be worth the most money... Haha but seriously thats a cool ring and will be even better to look back on that ring when they get older.
