Auburn self-imposed a ton with the help of the NCAA advisors. They sat the 2 players that were paid for over a full season, self-imposed recruiting restrictions for over a year, imposed 2 yrs post season ban, and fired the Asst HC (Persons) & two more staffers.

The NCAA still has to level a probation period and they'll have to address the NCAA rule about the HC solely responsible for the actions of the staffers that report directly to the HC.

Look out, that doesn't match Tuscaloosa's narrative.

This is where it gets interesting to me. Bruce’s already checkered past, combined with some pretty heavy self-sanctions… NCAA may be looking for blood.

Assuming there aren't any additional findings, if Aubie gets anything more than a piece of paper making things formal the melt will be justified.

As far as Pearl goes, we had an assistant AD doing the same thing (actually working for the same guy as Person). In both cases, what they were doing would HURT the program long term. This is one case (again, barring no additional findings) where holding the head guy accountable doesn't make sense.
