This is what you think will happen? (I assume you mean vacation by forfeiture)



Yes. I wish they would go back to forfeiture. Has a little more sting than vacated wins but whatever.

It may not be as high as 16. They may take the 11 over 3. I really think wins from '10 -'13 will be vacated. The ACT fraud was rampant it appears.

I also think your womens basketball team gets a severe penalty. I am aware that no one cares.

I think the NCAA will tack on scholarships. I feel like a two-year bowl ban is worst-case scenario, but not likely. I think a one-year ban would probably be fair, but of course I hope we don't get one. Vacation is silly, but the Academic fraud is definitely the worst act commited, though the one the admin is least responsible for.

It's too early to tell, the investigation reopened on NFL draft night. I still think Ole Miss is shooting low and then can claim to their fans that they get screwed when the NCAA adds more on.

The scholarship reductions do not appear to fit the crimes we know of so far. There was a booster network set up. The car lot, the airport bagman, the hotel and rental house owner. They had the whole spectrum covered. Guys like that are friends of the program and not rogues doing their own thing. The players and parents find out who to go to somehow.

I think it could get bad before it is done. 20+ schollys, 1-2 year bowl ban, hefty fine and vacating wins.
