Actually it's what 13 sec schools are like + 2 acc schools and some big 10's. They're screwed.Quote:

Agreed. I can buy someone having a source with legitimate information on the investigation (who is being interviewed, what has found, etc.), but anyone claiming to know anything about the sanctions that the Committee on Infractions is going to hand out is just talking out of their ass.Quote:

Taking the total scholarship number from 85 to 75 just seems like they'll have less depth but still be able to field all the starz they have. Which is basically what they've only been working with for the past 3 years, hoping the 6 to 10 amazing/great players can make up for the other okayish ones they have.Quote:

That is a pretty devastating blow.Quote:

My woolliness after hearing this info possibly affected my rational thinking, and typing. With that said, my source has been spot on throughout the entire investigation and I will stand by the "Prediction" of a 2yr bowl ban and 30 sch. over 3.Quote:

You come off probation and your talent level is decimated and your player leadership is weak. Toss in that fan base and it will get ugly fast in Northern Mississippi.Quote:

Do not forget the other reduction - if the sanctions are bad enough players are allowed to transfer without waiting a year. We all know the big boys will rush in to offer the poor victimized Bear players a new home. One more way to pick the body of the TSUN football program to the bone. They will lose their staff for the most part, their ability to recruit as they have, their best players would flee, and I doubt the NCAA will have the courtesy to give them a good reach around.
All that will be left of the Bjork-Freeze Adventure will be a persistent burning sensation when a group of coed hostesses piss. All that for a returned Sugar Bowl trophy and pointless Peach Bowl participation ring.
I think it just depends on how the NCAA structures it......USC lost 30 scholarships over 3 years (10/year) and they were also limited to no more than 75 total scholarship players. So if they only had 15 scholarships open up in that first year, that would have taken them to 70 total and they only would be able to sign 5 new guys before they hit their new cap of 75...then if they had 25 scholarships open up in the second year (taking them to 50 total), they would only be able to sign 15 due to the 10 scholly/year sanction, bringing them to 65 total scholarship players. I believe I read somewhere that USC only had like 50-something scholarship players during the last season of their sanctions. So needless to say, sanctions like that can be detrimental to a program.Quote:

The beauty of this is that it could be only the 1st set of allegations though. They could (I repeat could because I have no idea if they've coupled them together at this point) be responding to the 2nd waive as well at the same time.Quote:

There's zero room for busts. Also, it's harder to get top flight players when there's no room for their brothers or best friends and you're having to explain probation and a post season ban.
I want them to have to acknowledge that they were cheating their arses off and stop. Let's be clear without all of their shenanigans they will be hurting. When you add in the effects of the punishment then you have a decimated program looking up at Vandy.
I'd be happy with 30/3. That would kill their program for a good while. But I'll be most satisfied if freeze gets exposed with a show cause. Self righteous bitch.

It's the 2nd group of allegations thats going to sink them.
Yesterdays ten year show cause cleared some of this up coach.Quote:

4. They just hit a coach who is out of coaching with 10 years, multiple assistants with lengthy show causes - USM, ULL, the Texas DB coach for an investigation that is ongoing (acknowledging UT fired the DB coach but it was based on what the NCAA provided)
5. Freeze and his staff are now ground zero - coaching-wise the biggest potential culprits at UNC have been fired. Even some professors are gone. The NCAA needs a trophy badly. They are going to act on every coach related to round one of the charges with a heavy hand. Then, if needed, they will add more sanctions later. The UNC case taught them (along with the Miami case fiasco) to not wait. They will wrap up round one and continue to march into round two. If Freeze is implicated/proven guilty in the past actions he is going to pay the same price as Saunders and company. Round one has been going on for three years. They are not going to wait.
6. The lengthy show cause penalties are a masterstroke. No coach is going to sanction rule breaking if he knows he will lose his livelihood for 5-10 years.
Ground zero is in Oxford. Enjoy the show.
