The NCAA could give Baylor the death penalty for an out of control athletic department that covered up serious crimes by the players. Many people are still calling for Penn State football to get the death penalty, and they would be calling for Baylor to get it as well. The whole school is at fault, and the football and other sports should be killed because of how they recruit bad people to begin with. Baylor is the worst case of bad judgement in taken these players that other schools may not want.
I didn't say they couldn't, I said they won't give them the Death Penalty and to do so would be ridiculous, espcially since this is mostly a criminal matter and not an NCAA rules violation. If they start enacting rules where AD's are held accountable for players that have criminal violations, then yes, Baylor and a number of schools would be in big trouble.

See above.
I say again, punish the people responsible. Heck, go as far to also make it where if a player has multiple criminal violations, they are either ineligible from competing again or banned for a year or two. Don't punish the entire AD.
There is a rule that if it affects NCAA in a negative way as a whole? Then, NCAA have to step up and enforced the rules. NCAA got praised by people for going after Penn State, but still got a lot of fleck for not killing football at the school. The NCAA caved in because state politicians did not want Penn State get sanctioned.
The NCAA got a lot of fleck for not killing the sports program at Miami Florida after the latest scandal. They are still getting a lot of fleck because they received donation money from a donor who did a criminal act. I am surprise the feds have not frozen the bank account of the University to recover that money that was given to them.
NCAA got a lot of fleck for the Cam Newton fiasco when there is evidence that he was involved in pay-for-play. Schools that came up in that scandal was LSU and Texas A&M. Cam Newton also had a past history of violence that he was thrown out of college for throwing somebody else's computer out of the window.
The NCAA also got a lot of fleck for not stepping in to stop Florida State and the Winston situation.
The NCAA also got a lot of fleck for only giving North Carolina a slap on the wrist for what they have done,
Oklahoma repeat offender in men's basketball that fell within a couple of years of each other, and they never got hit hard with the death penalty.
Here is what have been done to other schools.
SWAC schools get post-season banned for low performance in graduating rate. That is a lot less awful than what went down in some of the big name schools.
USC got stripped of their wins and National Championship, and Bush lost his Heisman Trophy Award for him taken cash.
Ohio State got stripped of wins and all that for the tattoo scandals.
SMU football got the death penalty with far less offenses than Baylor and Penn. State.
SMU men's basketball got a post season banned lately.
Boise State got hit with trying to help a player and his family who were victims of Hurricane Katrina back in 2005.
Many other schools not in the P5 gets hit the hardest for a lot less than P5 schools.
Of course, Baylor is not Texas or Oklahoma, they might get hit harder than Texas and Oklahoma would.
