Try a reduction of 30 scholarships in a 5 year period. And down to 67 total scholarships (2005/2006). For what UCF got caught doing, you got a slap on the wrist.

Nah, no it's not

Here's a relevant fact: UCF run ruled Marshall today to win the series.

No clue which NCAA Infraction Penalty you are talking about...but if you are talking about the NCAA's findings from 2001 that instituted the following penalties, then your above statement is wrong, WAY wrong:

3. The university will reduce the number of initial counters (scholarships) available in football by five in each of the 2002-03, 2003-04 and 2004-05 academic years. This limits the institution to 20 initial football counters during each of those three academic years under current legislation. [The committee noted that the institution has averaged 23 initial football counters during the past four years.]

4. The university shall further reduce the total number of football counters available under Bylaw 15.5.5.1 to 80 during each of the 2002-03, 2003-04 and 2004-05 academic years. [Note 1: The
institution self-imposed a limit of 83 counters in 2002-03 and 84 in 2003-04. The institution has averaged 84 football counters during the past four years.] [Note 2: The decision to reduce the institution's counters in football by a total of 15 over three years was based upon information submitted by the university in which it was documented that Marshall over awarded football grants by at least a total of 15 over the course of the 1997-98 through 1999-00 academic years.
This overage resulted from inclusion in the calculation of athletically related financial aid the wages paid to nonqualifers who worked for the athletics representative.]

5. The university shall reduce the number of total counters in men's basketball by one during both the 2002-03 and 2003-04 academic years, which will limit the institution to 12 counters each of those two years available under Bylaw 15.5.4.1. [Note 1: the institution has averaged 13 counters in men's basketball during the past four years. Note 2: The decision to reduce the institution's counters in men's basketball by a total of two over two years was based upon
information submitted by the university in which it was documented that Marshall over awarded men's basketball grants by at least a total of two over the course of the 1998-99 and 1999-00
academic years. This overage resulted from inclusion in the calculation of athletically related.
