Ollie was hammered because he lied to the NCAA.


Which falls under the umbrella of not cooperating with NCAA investigations. The NCAA has publicly taken a stance that HCs who do not cooperate, whether lying or not talking with investigators, will be punished.


Auburn's president at the time made on the record remarks that he was upset that Bruce was not cooperating/talking with Auburn's investigation. The rumor amongst Auburn's local beat is that the NCAA was amenable to Bruce's plan to cooperate after the trial. No one has ever confirmed it

There is no official confirmation I can find that Bruce has "fully cooperated" / completed his interviews nor any updated (post 2017) rumor (let alone on the record view) regarding NCAA's opinion on Bruce's action





I think we will get a very light 'punishment' relative to other schools but it is naive to think there isn't a plausible "we got screwed"

Until the FEDS gave him the go ahead. He then spoke with Leath and Greene.

Bruce not talking to Leath has absolutely nothing to do with him not cooperating with the NCAA. Do you honestly think Bruce would snub the NCAA.............considering his past dealings with them?
