I saw a t shirt that is correct: ‘NCAA screwing athletes since 1900’.
Oklahoma lost the game, but there were two particularly fun moments:
1) Oklahoma scored late from about the seven with the old "fumblerooski" play, I forget the name of the offensive lineman who took the ball in. I could ask around and find out. It didn't put our guys ahead, but it seemed to make a point to Miami that they had been in a ball game.
2) Linebacker Brian Bosworth, who had been suspended for the game by the NCAA on some kind of eligibility issue IIRC - (NOT grades - the dude was a jerk but he was also an A student... honestly I don't recall what the deal was but he was suspended from the game by the NCAA) - was seen on the sidelines in (just a guess) the third quarter, wearing a t-shirt that said:
N ational
C ommunists
A gainst
A thletes
It made the national broadcast of the game. TPTB at OU must have had a hsit fit because he was gone in about a nanosecond.
It was one of the coolest stunts I think I've ever seen from anyone, even though Bosworth aka "The Boz" was the consummate arrogant jerk at the time. Some people say age has changed him but I wouldn't know...
The NCAA doesn’t set this policy - they have no control over whether a player stays or goes. It is the NBA that has the policy.
