Leadership Council, would be encouraged to address whether fantasy sports games
that adhere to certain parameters necessarily violate the principles of amateurism.
5. Discussion regarding the role and purpose of the Leadership Council (i.e., support the
Division I Board of Directors and help to identify and manage the agenda for Division
I.)
a. Flow of Council’s work.
LDC ACTION:
(1) Learned that the meeting schedule for the new Division I governance structure
is based on both the Division I Board of Directors’ quarterly schedule and the
annual Division I legislative cycle, which begins on July 15 with the legislation
submission deadline and concludes with the Board's April meeting; and
(2) Discussed how the Leadership Council should seek to develop its meeting
schedule so it can be helpful in identifying issues for the governance
substructure’s examination, while at the same time, seeking to be responsive to
the Division I Board of Directors.
b. Structure and timing of meetings.
LDC ACTION:
(1) Agreed that given the number of issues the Council has been asked to examine,
that the Leadership Council should meet prior to the meeting already scheduled
on January 15 at the NCAA Convention; and
(2) Suggested trying to identify a time near the October Legislative Council and
Board of Directors meetings, with the caveat, the meeting should be conducted
in the early part of the week to avoid conflicts with travel associated with
football games.
[Note: The staff will solicit availability calendars so that a meeting can be
scheduled in the fall.]
c. Administrative Committee.
