07:12 AM ET?02.22 | As if the NCAA hasn't done enough already to aggravate Miami, add this to the list: Last week, UM and the NCAA engaged in serious settlement talks, and several UM people expected a deal because president Mark Emmert seemed initially supportive. UM wanted a settlement and likely would have accepted modest scholarship reductions. But a source said the NCAA then informed UM there would be no deal and suggested to UM the enforcement staff and two key boards were against it because of concerns about "not deviating from the rules." Also, UM tried to convince the NCAA to not use the words "lack of institutional control" -- and was hopeful at one point it might be changed to the less serious "failure to monitor" -- but the NCAA wouldn't back down.
