Per ESPN, we are still being actively investigated by the NCAA

I wonder when they started investigating us? Stories in the past mentioned other schools, but never AU.

These were Forde stories weren’t they? I don’t remember seeing anything from any legitimate sources or reporters.

The sources telling ESPN this could be as simple as meaning Auburn still expects additional correspondence with the NCAA to close out the matter

I will be pleasantly shocked if the NCAA actually does the right thing.
With our investigation, and the investigation of many others still ongoing, I have a hard time believing the severity of the punishments are going to differ so much that a school with multiple major violations will just get a slap on the wrist. There is already heavy scrutiny on the sport and the NCAA , so I wont be surprised if possible consequences are structured and handed out in proportional accordance to the severity of alleged violations.
Basically, if Auburn, Kansas, and the rest of the implicated receive notice of level 1 violations, there should not be wiggle room out of that. Kansas’s blue blood status should’ve gotten them out of level 1 status if that was the case.

Mark Murphy has only made 6 CB but his Cooper to Auburn prediction a couple days ago is one of them. I think he knows something. I bet he commits Mississippi State weekend when all the big boys are here.

At least six Division I men's basketball programs will receive notices of allegations for Level I violations from the NCAA by the summer, stemming from the federal government's recently completed investigation of the sport, a top NCAA official told CBS Sports.
quote:
Level I violations are considered the most serious by the NCAA. They carry the strongest punishments that can include scholarship reductions, postseason bans and show-cause orders against coaches. According to the NCAA, a notice of allegations is sent after an investigation has closed.

Do you think the self imposed sanctions we have already done with the no recruiting for 8 months & sitting out Wiley & Danjel are enough to avoid anything more than an additional slap on the wrist such as Bruce being suspended a few games like most of the AU writers are theorizing will happen?

I think we have done enough to avoid a heavy hand acting against us. But you never know. It’s said that at least 6 will be implicated with level 1 violations, and it’s largely assumed that we are one of them. But those assumptions are probably mainly from talking heads from CBS, Yahoo, etc that probably don’t know anything.

I agree with that analysis.
But also, the pay for play schools such as Kansas and another 5-6 teams are I think going to get the worse punishment.
Although you think we are in that same group(Level 1), I think that based on our's being a rogue AC steering current players towards an agent and with our interaction already w/ NCAA w/ the suspensions of Wiley/Purifoy and our self imposed restrictions, that even though we may be level 1, it will not be as severe a punishment(maybe a limited coach suspension or a small scholarship reduction).
But based on our long memories w/ NCAA, i wouldn't bet my house on my theories either.

I knew we were expecting an NOA per the victim statement, but I didn't realize we're being actively investigated like LSU and Arizona are. In previous stories when schools under investigation were mentioned at the end, Auburn was not mentioned. Of course, we don't know what the nature of 'being investigater' means.
