No. Not when institutions do whatever they can do as soon as possible. Saunders was fired. Wiggins, girls hoops coach responsible for MOST of these violations was fired about six months after being hired. Never coached a game. Basketball self imposed huge penalties on itself. Track coach forced to resign. If anything, Ole Miss compliance showed people how it's supposed to be done.

For your sake, I hope it works out as you think it will but once again, I've got to tell you that despite what you're saying making perfect sense, it isn't true in the world of NCAA infractions.

Here's a excerpt from a 2007 newspaper story:


The school's handling of the textbook situation to this point has been notably improved from situations in the recent past.

A quick, decisive internal investigation was called to examine every athlete to see who may have violated NCAA rules by receiving extra benefits. The president's office has been involved from the start. The media have been informed at each step.

Football coach Nick Saban uttered words Tuesday that reporters here have never heard him say: "You'll probably know about it as soon as I do." That line explains best who is calling the shots, and it is not anyone in the football program.

No, this is not your father's Alabama. Or even your older brother's.

Suspending five football players, including two offensive line starters (on the eve of the Tennessee game, of all weeks) proved that the university is now serious about rule enforcement.


Immediate action, doing what they can as soon as possible. Football's entire part was about $4,000 in textbooks that were bought for other students (no profit to the players) and they took 21 wins away in punishment.

I really hope everything works out and no NCAA punishment is levied against OM.

But can also see where the NCAA would feel like if the institution had control of the policies, procedures and operations under their supervision then there wouldn't have been a need to investigate multiple sports resulting in almost 3 dozen allegations.

That's wrong. If that were the case, Universities could "hire" a lower level coach, give him his list... then fire him at the end of recruiting or 6 months later. Well paid, and job done. No issue for ANYBODY involved.


As with the ULL investigation, the NCAA stated that Saunders acted without the knowledge of... etc... YET they also stated that the University is still responsible.

Saunders was fired.


ULL fired him too. Your point?

Not at all. You "think" they have. The results are not in.
