All the players that was involved transferred out after the Pruitt staff was fired.


How do you know that? Do you have the full list of players who were paid? 18 Level 1 violations is as serious as it gets.

Surprised an extension was needed. Doesn’t it take the NCAA 5-10 years to adjudicate?

Just run out the clock. By the time they finish, there will be no NCAA, or, if UT receives an adverse ruling, just say ‘NO’. What is the NCAA going to do?

Nothing burger. All the coaches all the players everybody’s gone. NCAA said Tennessee was the standard for self investigation. NIL is legal now. You were talking about $60,000. Pruitt and his assistant coaches screwed themselves. Should be the coaches that did the deed more than the university and they’re the ones getting paid the big bucks.

NCAA is the governing body that hands out trophies, or doesn’t. They determine which wins are allowed and which aren’t. They’re like the IRS, they have the final say. You can’t ignore them if you want to play in their league, and it is their league.

Yes Tennessee did self impose scholarships. And I think last year we had maybe 69 players on scholarship or less. The only thing we didn’t do was A bowl ban.

18 Level 1 infractions is a big “something burger”, no matter what the University has done. There will be very stiff penalties, including bowl bans and vacated wins. That’s why the school has asked for an extension.

Good point other than you being wrong dipshit.

Why the frick are you answering about Tennessee especially when you’re wrong?

Unless you have recommendations about which seats we should take next time we take over tiger stadium, no need to talk Tennessee

Did they self-impose anything? I haven't seen anything on it.

UT was commended by the NCAA for how they handled things internally in the NOA. They self-imposed sanctions last fall. Can't remember all the details but they included scholarships reductions and things of that nature. They also obviously fired the coaches involved and the athletic director.

This was in the mitigating factors of the NOA as it pertains to UT's actions
quote:


Prompt acknowledgement of the violation, acceptance of responsibility and imposition of meaningful corrective measures and/or penalties. [NCAA Bylaw19.9.4-(b)] Once initially alerted to potential issues related to impermissible benefits, the institution conducted an initial investigation. During the investigation, the institution detected potential violations and disclosed to the enforcement staff the potential issues and need for further inquiry. During the first two months of the institution's investigation related to potential issues within the football program, it uncovered potential significant violations and immediately imposed meaningful corrective actions.

The institution took immediate steps to fully investigate potential violations at the beginning of its investigation, including mirror-imaging multiple football staff members' cellular phones, which led to voluminous amounts of information that substantiated the violations alleged. Those initial steps greatly expedited the ability to formulate full facts within the investigation.

The institution has self-reported 46 Level III violations over the previous five years, approximately nine violations each year.

The actions taken by the institution during the investigation should be the standard for any institutional inquiries into potential violations. Throughout the investigation the institution exhibited exemplary cooperation in multiple ways. Once the institution's chancellor was alerted to allegations of potential violations within the football program, the institution took swift action to investigate the allegations and substantiated various violations related to Allegation No. 1. The institution then immediately disclosed the potential violations to the enforcement staff and continued to investigate potential violative conduct, which substantiated various other violations related to Allegation Nos. 2-9. In doing so, the institution:

(i) Conducted the initial investigation into potential violations and continued to keep the enforcement staff apprised of information it developed, identifying critical individuals, documents and other information highly relevant to the violations;
(ii) Expended substantial resources, including dedicating time and human capital to conduct over 100 interviews, immediately mirror-imaging phones of select potential involved individuals and continuing to identify additional individuals to interview who might possess relevant information; and
(iii) Continued to investigate potential allegations, even after initially substantiating the initial violations included in Allegation No. 1, including securing cooperation from numerous third-party individuals to further the investigation. These actions by the institution led to the fully-formed record that would not be possible without the significant actions taken by the institution.

Oh joy, we get to vacate the slim pickings of wins we got during the cornbread era. Literally do not care. I’ll be glad once the NCAA erases 2018-20 from memory.

UT has already said that the players and coaches that was involved are no longer part of the University. UT knows exactly who took what.

vacated wins.

Will only be wins that happen under Pruitt. The NCAA can have every one of them. NCAA isn’t about punishing players not involved. They will hammer the coaches that are no longer at UT.

Tennessee football finally rising up from the grave, going undefeated with the funnest team to watch in the country, only for the NCAA to make one last power play and giving us a postseason ban on Christmas Day would be the most VOLS shite of all time lmao

I know nothing about this case and have no idea what actual punishment will be, but a postseason/bowl ban for the 2023 season would be a big deal to them.

The school

The school did not pay anyone. That was Pruitt and his coaches that paid. Once the school found out they fired him and everyone involved along with notifying the NCAA. The NCAA never caught Pruitt or UT, it was UT themselves that turned themselves in.

Your cheap arse is the one that started the investigation so you could get out of paying Jermy Proot. You asked for it, so bend over and take it like a Vol.
