These are NOT ranked, but we have PSU, OSU, Miami, USC, Duke, there are THREE SEC Schools mentioned... Spoiler Alert (Auburn is NOT one of them).

Kentucky celebrates the 2012 national championship in April. Sixty years earlier, the NCAA opened an investigation into the University of Kentucky Wildcats basketball program, following a national championship season in which three players had been arrested in a point-shaving scandal. The subsequent probe revealed that 10 players had received impermissible financial aid. The NCAA banned the school's entire athletic program from playing for a year -- in effect, marking the advent of the so-called "death penalty," even though the penalty wasn't given the nickname until the 1980s.
Jim Harrick Sr., then head coach of the University of Georgia Bulldogs, yells from the sidelines during the 2002 NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament. Harrick resigned as UGA's head basketball coach in 2003 after his son, Jim Harrick Jr., was accused of giving an A to three basketball players who didn't attend class and paying a phone bill for one of them. The NCAA punished UGA with four years' probation, and the school was forced to vacate 30 wins from 2001-2003.
The NCAA has found the University of Alabama football program in violation of its rules at least three times in the last two decades. The most notable incident came in 2000 when a booster paid a high school coach to steer a recruit to the Crimson Tide. An investigation found numerous other violations, and Alabama was placed on five years' probation, among other sanctions. In 1995, the NCAA forced Alabama to vacate wins after it learned coaches were aware one of the school's All-Americans had secretly signed with an agent, and in 2009 the university was sanctioned for misuse of its textbook distribution program by 16 athletic programs, including football.

Thing is the CCNY point shaving scandal (what they're referring to) involved 7 schools and 32 players when it was all said and done. Aside from us I think Bradley is the only team to ever reach the NCAA Tournament again.
40 some odd college players and "fixers" were charged and indicted. Groza, Beard, and Barnstable (UK players) got barred from playing ANY sport for three years by a Judge.
It's crazy stuff.

Been mad at Bama long before 21-0. They have and always will be one of the dirtiest programs around. That culture is as close to PSU as can be ,you know it but will never admit it. Besides gotta hate on someone since Arky refuses to be our "rival".

Two things I knew before I opened the thread, AU would not be one of the teams and Bama would be one of the teams.

Tennessee is one of the cleanest programs around. truly the moral compass of the SEC.

FYI LSU is on probation and Alabama is not. You might want to leave this thread and come back when probation is over.

I think most rational people would know that Alabama has one of the dirtiest programs the last 20 years, While Auburn football has been clean. We learned our lesson with ER.
EDIT: Notice this was CNN's list, not NtY.

Auburn — Seven Major Infractions :
Auburn has had a difficult time playing by the rules over the years. Its most embarrassing incident occurred in 1991, when 60 Minutes aired recordings of head football coach Pat Dye arranging a loan for a player. The series of incriminating tapes were provided by former star defensive back Eric Ramsey and unveiled a player payment scheme involving the coaching staff and prominent booster "Corky" Frost.
For its wrongdoing, Auburn received a two-year bowl ban, a one-year television and ban and lost 13 scholarships over a four-year period. Dye was replaced by Terry Bowden, who became the first Division 1 coach to go undefeated in his first season but had nothing to show for it.

Although this is true, maybe you should send it to CNN? Also do you have a RECENT link? We have been saved, we learned our lesson, praise the NCAA...

Most rational people also know AU has one of the dirtiest(ncaa probations) in the nation historically. Also in case you forgot, AU basketball was on two year probation within the last few years.

No problem with the article. Was simply stating considering who posted it, the spoiler was not needed. If WDE or northgwinnet posted the article there would have been some suspense.

Werent yall on probation until just a month or two ago?

And LSU turned themselves in to get the trivial probation they are now on. The coach involved was fired and the player never played one down of LSU football. And LSU was commended by the NCAA for their demonstration of adminstrative control.
So you can suck our dick Cheater.
