re: If Ole Miss gets the death penalty, how does the SEC fill the void?

We will never see another death penalty case in football IMO but question: what single required aggravating factor is absent in whatever NCAA dealings they have going on with Ole Miss?

Disclaimer: If there was a similar incident (or set of incidents like the Baylor basketball team where we ended up with Lawrence Roberts, was to occur in football that is a different matter. But IIRC, they self-imposed a death penalty on their program.

ETA: Just looked it up. Baylor was eligible for the death penalty but since they cooperated with the NCAA (unlike SMU), they avoided the death penalty.
