Probably a rumor..... Not like the bowl committee would have to give back any money even if the NCAA did anything.
Yeah not sure why the bowl committee would care. Money is money even if they have to vacate the bowl game down the road.
Would only matter if the sanctions are announced before the bowl game. If it is a bowl ban, they might choose to take it this year instead of starting next year.
Still probably a rumor.
Let me clarify. I think they were concerned with sanctions coming soon and not being able to play in bowl game.
LOL the NCAA would not wait until a bowl selects them and then ban them from the bowl....
The strange thing is that it wouldn't be surprising. The NCAA has a track record of screwing things up seemingly just to screw them up.Quote:

We beat that ass in Starkville and then they can't go to a bowl b/c of NCAA sanctions.
Oh, please let this happen.
Just lunch time banter. I have given up on them getting any sanctions. These damn rumors keep giving me hope. You would have thought by now that we would have heard something on the ACT stuff.
damn dude. you are better than this.
I think they usually get to chose to go ahead and take the banned or wait until the next season. It's what OSU did. They went to a bowl game at 6-6 and elected to take the bowl banned the next year. The kick in the nut was the next year was Urban"s first year and they went 12-0 and Bama got into the BCS NC game by default and won. I think that was the year they played ND.
To answer you question with what I think is, they already know their punishment and they are trying to keep it quiet so they don't lose their recruiting class and the committees know what sanctions are coming. They would have to know that.
anybody smell that?
I would think they would be more concerned with UNM's bowl showing last season and also the rumors that half thier team will be academically ineligable.
Bold for an 8 post member who only seems to post on OM/NCAA related threads.Quote:

I thought it was going to be about the "rebels" or "ole miss" or "spice" or "acid" or "fights" or something along those lines.
the NCAA has to figure out which 5-7 teams to allow in so all of the bowls will be filled ... I would think they would wait until after the bowls are filled before anouncing ... if anything at allQuote:

OM might have the NOA and might have some vague idea of the punishment but once the NCAA makes a final decision on the punishment they release it publicly and publish it on their website.
I think the NCAA is probably still conducting interviews and keep uncovering another rabbit hole to go down.
The NCAA has nothing to gain or lose from the bowls. Why would they care?
If they are letting 5-7 teams in it wouldn't even upset the SEC. Just move Kentucky or Mizzou up and fill all the spots.
And it might be ole miss that moves the bowl ban up. Take the hit this year and make a bowl next year. Especially if some of your players will not be eligible for the 2nd semester...
I don't believe it, but it's not crazy.
The NCAA sanctions thing preventing a bowl from picking OM is pretty far fetched. What's not so crazy, however is how many of their Class of 13 5 Stars are going to be eligible for a bowl this year. I have heard rumors that many of these guys going pro stopped going to class quite some time ago. Whether it's true or not, I don't know. How attractive would OM be to a bowl without Tunsil, Treadwell, Kimdeeechee and Connor?
my point was due to the lack of eligible teams they might wait until after bowl season to announce - if they even announce at allQuote:

When choosing a team is crazy. This choice = $, bad choice = low ticket sales.
Very often ticket sales to the teams is the profit margin. It's not far fetched that bowls may be Leary of a team
with concerns......NCAA baggage is a concern just as much as a loosing streak.
I mean seriously. The whole premise is stupid as 17.
I don't know what my 8 post count has to with calling you out though. My post count will keep going up and your IQ clearly will not.

NO, but I can see bowl selection committees being a little apprehensive over having a decent game - worried that half the team will be grade casualties. That's pretty much known at this point with that bunch.Quote:

Allegedly some of the higher priced talent lost ALL interest in academic pursuits after the Memphis loss.
You're a ****ING IDIOT! Why is your troll ass still allowed to post here?Quote:
