What a joke. For those of you who don't know, Mizzou had a few tutors write papers, do HW ,and take tests for athletes. Mizzou found out, self reported, and the NCAA hit them with a 3 year probation, 1 year bowl ban, $10 MILLION in athletic department loses + 1% of the FB budget, and major recruiting restrictions... all for self reporting something that no institution in the country can actually control and probably goes on at 90% of them. Mizzou appealed just the bowl ban and the NCAA waited MONTHS (no doubt as a passive aggressive extra punishment) until there were legally only a few days left to issue a ruling, then of course upheld the BS ruling.

State found out a tutor was taking a class for athletes, self reported, and we lost those athletes for 2/3rds of the year and got 3 years probation.

UNC lawyered up and told the NCAA to F off, got literally ZERO punishment for paper classes that were used far more widespread than the tutor crap was for Mizzou or State.

OM lawyered up and told the NCAA to F off and got about 1/5th of what they should have gotten. Had Leo chose not to speak, it would have been even less.

Why does stonewalling work? Because the NCAA has no legal power. They can't supena witnesses, they can be sued by the school if they punish a school based on shady evidence.

FIRE BRACKY, AND NEVER EVER SELF REPORT. F the NCAA. Let them come to town and take our chances. It's proven time and time again to work out better.
