From the article it sounds like the NCAA would go after not only UTk, but Kiffin as well. Hope Kiffin has to own up to whatever he has done. It's complete bs that a coach can commit violations, get a school on probation, and then leave with no consequences.

what's your prediction?
Hard to definitely say something, but I'm still not as concerned about the football program as the basketball program.

Figures. Auburn cheats and gets a national championship out of it, we cheat and get a bunch of diva transfers and a counting problem.

I don't want to see a bunch of recruits leaving, but if we do get severe penalties, our players should be able to leave without penalty.

So let's hear some predictions about the football program's sanctions for this.


NCAA will take a look at the current state of UT's program, figure they have suffered for Kiffin enough already and will continue to for some time, and just give a slap on the wrist. 2 years probation, no scholarship losses.

Maybe we could convince the NCAA that the 20 scholarship players we were short this past season was a result of our own self imposed penalties?

this is the truth. These Cock____ers that fly around the country and suffer no consequences for their actions should be held accountable.But the NCAA is like a 65 year old ,toothless whore.

Why does Clay Travis, of all people, know about this but no one else?

Not buying it yet...

Probably Bruce Pearl is out now. The university will need to show they are committed to clean athletic programs.

Slap on the wrist for football, but a cloud hanging over the program until its settled. Negative publicity will hurt worse than any sanctions.

Kiffen was the worst hire for UT. He single handedly did more damage to UT than any other coach in recent history.

Clay Travis is a joke but in this one UT is hoping the NCAA is more upset at Kiff and USC than at them.

If this comes out so soon after NSD it shows the NCAA has nothing but status quo and $$$$'s in mind. The idea that they are in business to 'protect' the student athlete is pure bullshite.

Strongly disagree.

What exactly is recent history? Because I strongly disagree with this.

It's not like the NCAA just leaked some new info. Clay Travis just reported something he heard.

If the article is correct, which is a stretch from Clay, then the NCAA will have to do something. From the article, the biggest piece of information was that the coaches had informed the hostesses what to do, and the NCAA has evidence in writing (how the frick did they get that). I would like to think we will get slapped on the wrist since the remnants of this have all went elsewhere or been disbanded. I would like to see Kiffin slapped hard, but that's a biased man's opinion.

I remember when this happened, me and my roommates all agreed that we would not be surprised by Kiffin doing this. We just prayed he was smart enough to never let it out.
