The controversy appeared to stem from a blog sharing the link to the registry in a post that has since been deleted. NCAA President Mark Emmert told reporters that the organization had not ordered the registry to be taken down.
"Yeah, that was crazy to me that that’s illegal because that’s what a registry’s for," Virginia junior guard Kyle Guy said of NCAA informing his fiancee they needed to stop sharing their wedding registry publicly.
Joe Kinsey, founder of the irreverent sports blog Busted Coverage, initially shared the link to Guy and Jenkins’s gift registry in a post published Monday. Then he received a cease and desist letter from Kelly Korras, Virginia’s associate director of compliance. “It was a joke. I thought it was funny,” Kinsey said of his blog post, which he removed after receiving the letter. “He’s getting married, and here’s his registry. But I didn’t want Kyle to get in trouble.”
