Slap on the wrist or throw the book at them?

Throw the book.

If the NCAA was inclined to be lenient, the FBI arrests did North Carolina no favors. NCAA can't let systemic , 2 decade long academic fraud be passed off as a simple administrative error.

Throw the book at ECU.

FYP

This will be the first major sanctions since the new penalty matrix was agreed on. Should be interesting.

Lol. Nothing.

Unbelievable. And I was wrong. From ESPN: http://www.espn.com/college-sports/story...fraud-case

UNC avoids major sanctions in academic case

North Carolina avoided major sanctions after the NCAA could not conclude the school violated academic rules when it made available deficient Department of African and Afro-American Studies "paper courses" to the general student body.

Wow. UNC skates. Oh boy

Committee on Infractions "could not conclude" that violations were committed by UNC. Eighteen years of academic fraud gets a pass.

Once the NCAA announced they would release the results on a Friday, the cat was out of the bag.

Hang the 2008 banner back up.

Shouldn't be shocked but WOW! F'in WOW!!

Hang the banner back up!!!

The NCAA is analogous to a corrupt municipal government. The y are no different than Chicago was when Al Capone had the mayor on his payroll. The power broker schools are criminal enterprises that pay the NCAA to limit competition. That is why the less powerful schools get hammered while the powers continue to flaunt the rules with no danger of penalty.

As it was when the federal government was forced to move in via Eliot Ness and the Untouchables to shut down Capone, so it will be as the feds move in against the NCAA and its power members and lock these criminals up.

We could feel nothing was coming.

Well said 3GT.

I would say feckless more than corrupt. The NCAA is designed to be powerless. FBI would have preferred not to get involved, but we have had Penn State, Baylor, North Carolina . . . in the last decade. And now the curtain pulled back and we get evidence that almost every top player's family is getting six figures. FBI feels they have no choice but to get involved, IMO.

Wow...not even a slap on the wrist. 2 decades of institutional academic fraud and nothing. One SAT score and whole seasons and banners are vacated.

Hey, NCAA

“The NCAA is so mad at Kentucky it will probably slap another two years probation on Cleveland State.''

Where is Jerry Tarkanian when we need him? No truer words ever spoken. No wonder the NCAA hated him so much.

Miami skates. UNC skates. Effin joke.

Man, I am so pissed.
I know if I was standing in a room with the people from the NCAA that approved this sh!t I would punch the SOB in the face and end up in jail.

I'm sorry but I'm done with college BB forever. I mean honestly...that's the last effing straw.

Thanks for the recognition, Snow. I wish I was that good with Lottery numbers!

Edit: At least I assume if anyone clicks the link they see my post at the end of the thread. Maybe it only does that for me...
