SI's reporting team =\= NCAA sanctions
Especially when the NCAA is already dealing with blow back from fricking up the Miami sanctions, all that Penn State business, and etc. If they don't have enough to cross the Ts and dot the Is then they're going to be too chickenshit to do anything about it.

AHern didn't kill anyone while at UF and Rainey was suspended for half the year, without raping anyone and no team vote was required to let him back.

I think this is still up for debate.

If you were cynical, you could make an argument that since there are no active cash cows at OSU, the NCAA is going to try to make a case to make them feel less impotent about themselves.
That said, I think the NCAA is basically a hypocritical paper tiger at this point and that they are a total joke and mockery of themselves. They are like Boss Hog.

Well, I don't know who Hernandez did or didn't kill at Florida, I just want to know who killed Florida's offense?

Saban had it so tightly controlled that when players got in trouble at LSU that player was gone and no one ever knew what happened.
Under Miles, players transgressions are out in the open and dealt with and players are dismissed.

Umm yes they did, you might want to go back and review your own history. They let an infraction from around 94-95 not be punished because it was outside the statute of limitations. one of the things yalls lawyers mitigated from the case. The NCAA didnt really care because they had yall on all the other stuff, with Means, being the main one
Oh, the Gene Jelks "violation" that Jelks later admitted was made up bulls###? That was mitigated because the "evidence" was unsubstantiated doctored garbage that Auburn boosters backing Jelks produced. The Jelks "violations" were no more documented than the HBO 4 info was for Auburn. Both were publically admitted violations with dubious or lacking evidence to back them up. That's why the NCAA didn't technically include the info in their report. Of course, the NCAA still ruled punatively against Alabama in the Langham case for our arrogance so they may as well have ruled that the Jelks violations did occur because the penalty wouldn't have been anymore severe than it already was.

How does it feel to have Auburn all up in your head all the time?
And if you read the ETA on my quote it was when your boosters paid 20k to a recruit

I don't even know what the NCAA did 20 or 30 years ago to punish the people they caught has to do with the way they do things now. Even in the past 5 years, the differences seem pretty significant.

The original comment that GT quoted was about how they wont always punish for the older stuff, if they have you on the newer stuff. I used the example in the 2002 Bama infraction where they let some stuff(20k payment) slide, because they had yall on the other stuff anyways. GT tried to say I was full of shite

Ahhhh... yeah... I think by that point, it was just a package deal. I certainly think they have a long memory when they want to. I don't think anyone can argue that Reggie Bush took the fall for years of systemic rampant cheating.
