NCAA has ruled. No changes to punishment per Gabe and Matter on Twitter.

The NCAA just made itself completely irrelevant. No school should ever cooperate in any fashion with it ever again

As a few have noted, I don’t think we can afford to fire and hire with the money lost from this. It’s sounding like Barry will be back next year but on a very very short leash.

Well at least we didnt have to suffer through shreveport this year and institute the ban for next year instead. Ncaa is a total joke.

They are. But we weren’t going to a bowl next year, ban or not.

I'm not sure why everyone thinks this makes a difference with firing odom.

Firing Odom, a new coach has a clean slate. The scholly reductions are minimal, and the last 2 or 3, you would of offered can walk on, and get those next season.


This is actually a perfect time to bring in some one new, the sanctions are here and about to be done, as far as bowl stuff.

I think the biggest argument would be that we’re operating in the red on athletics and we’d incur an additional expense of $3-$5M in a year where we’re going to get $8M less.

So it could be a total of -$13M in a place that was probably losing money already.

The counter argument is that you can make up a third of that with increased football attendance next year. And probably add another couple million in the following year.

But is the attendance going to increase if the team isn’t any good? Likely not

The only way to increase attendance at this point is give fans something to be excited about. A new coach whose willing to call a game like he's got nothing to lose might do it.

Since they will have literally nothing to lose by trying. BO won't even try.

Some coaches might excite the fanbase.

The milquetoast hire we could afford/attract right now almost certainly not.

Per haps it’s best to just ride this out one more year and barring some miraculous turnaround we’ll be in a better position to make a better hire.

If we hire some scrub now we are stuck for another 3-4 years with him

That story is so true,
On its best day, the NCAA is a governing body full of grubby parasites running the country’s biggest labor scam. Sure, maybe your team won the annual TGI Friday’s Enterprise Exxon Mobil Bowl and all the players got a $10 gas card with a new pair of sweatshop sneakers. But every year, careers and lives are jeopardized so that wanna-be dons who’ve seen Goodfellas approximately 12 too many times can make sure James Wiseman didn’t get any help moving across town or that Tua Tagovailoa won’t make any money signing his own name on a novelty football.

The NCAA is a monopoly and labor scam, so why don't we just quit.

I said this before on the St Louis Post dispatch and got harrassed by the usual trools, but the NCAA needs us and others to make money off of, if members leave, they lose money.
