Is the NCAA actually growing a set?

I really can't see this happening but if it does, good night sweet Miami.

Nope. Not growing a pair. Just trying to look like they are.

Yeah right they are going to kill a program like USC or Miami FB by cutting their scholarships in half. It looks impressive until you read that the infractions committee can take into account mitigating factors and decide the severity of the case at a whim. I don't see anything changing for the big money making programs but those D1A programs better watch their back now

Mitigating, such a flexible, open ended word. Expect to hear that a lot as they deal with some of these schools in trouble. I hope I am wrong, but history says otherwise. |

Yay! NCAA doing more to help schools enforce a labor cartel. Anything to make sure unprivileged black teenagers can subsidize middle-age white men and their rich kids.

A Bureaucracy gets together after one of its worst years ever. The question was probably "What can we do to save ourselves?"
They will make a couple examples of the East Carolinas and Florida Internationals and let the big boys slide. |

Well, we are about to find out whether they have the balls to effectively put a 5-10 year death penalty on Miami. Should be fun. Anything less than 60 scholarships total means absolute disaster for a D1 program and even 70 means you are probably going to be bad for a while. Based on that chart above, Miami would be incredibly lucky to stay above 60. Let's see if they are serious or not

They're not going to be tougher on violators unless they stand to benefit somehow. I don't know if all the outrage expressed by the media (and fans I guess) has impacted business at all or not. Either way though, the more efficient solution to any problem is simply to investigate less, rather than punish harsher (it would help if that darn Yahoo Sports would go away, but I had already forgotten about Miami until I read this article, and I still don't even know - are we waiting for a day in the near future where the NCAA is expected to drop the hammer down on them?)

They're still limited by having no investigative powers, so you end up with Ohio State losing 9 scholarships and Auburn and Cam Newton getting nothing despite the stench wafting from both.
Miami might be farked if Shapiro's trial left a paper trail for the NCAA, but it won't be because of some meaningless crap they say at a meeting. |

Yeah, Miami will be the barometer. Is there a date on when they will announce the findings and penalties? I'd love to do a thread a week before to see what people think they will get
SI

Large revenue-generating sport at school in major conference = automatic mitigating factor
Small non-revenue-generating sport at school in minor conference = the full wrath of the NCAA

Am I the only one seeing the words future and proposed here? Much as we'd all like for their football team to go down in flames, why would their infractions be judged under a penalty standard that was agreed upon after their violations were reported, let alone happened?

This is all relative, IMO. Meaning, they will decide the punishment first and fit it to the criteria later. So with the USC example, you can't compare the sanctions under both models. The sanctions would likely be the same, they'd just have to change the rationale for the penalties they have under the new system. Color me skeptical that this changes anything. Assuming it's even agreed upon.

Tell me a bit about reducing scholarships.
From what I understand, players are given scholarships one year at a time. So if they reduce the number of scholarships from 50 to 30, doesn't that just punish 20 players who no longer can attend the school? Or am I missing something? |

Technically, that's possible. But I don't see a school signing a full class and then jettisoning 20 current players (upperclassmen) to make room for the new players. Now, where you're talking about a small reduction in scholarships, like at Ohio State - and particularly with a new coaching staff - my guess is Meyer takes a full class and they either pull a couple of scholies or give a couple kids the hint that they won't be playing, to get them to leave and free up a few scholarships. But I can't imagine that happening on a widespread basis. It would mostly affect the number of new students they could bring in, as opposed to current players.

I was looking over those penalties and they were talking about reducing scholarships from 85 to about 50. Now with that kind of reduction, it seems that there's no way for the team not to pull scholarships from existing players. College football programs don't allocate 35 scholarships for new players generally. So if I'm interpreting this correctly, the scholarships go from 85 to 50. Now there will be fewer guys willing to come, but that still leaves 15-20 scholarships with existing players that are going to have to get pulled. If that's the case, who is really getting penalized?

Southwest Missouri State. My guess is that in the event something that drastic does take place, it turns into some kind of sliding scale/average scholarships over a 4 year period type thing. |

In that case, my guess is the school would also get a post-season ban and probation, and even now, they allow guys to transfer if they will never get a chance to play in a bowl (i.e., at USC, they let juniors and seniors transfer if they wanted to, without having to sit a year).

And apparently the fall out begins. As SC strength and conditioning coach Fitzgrald unexpectedly "resigns" to take a role at PSU for roughly half the coin.
Not sure if this has more to do with the complaince director and Spurrier's recent fling starting to leak out or with the pending NCAA disciplinary action commitee decision which has asked for all players to take a manated simultaneous drug test prior to ruling... Silly gamecocks, back where you belong. (With Vandy at the bottom) |
