OU admits violations

[billybud]

After SMU...the NCAA has shown little taste for instituting the death penalty.

The thinking, I believe, is that it is a killer of a decade and a half or more...and the NCAA does not want to kill programs, just give a strong disincentive to cheating.

The NCAA will get so mad at OU that they will give ORU three years probation...

I think they should drop a half-hammer. No post season, no OOC games, for the next two years. Forfeit all wins from last season and lose 2 scholarships for the next two years. Not as harsh as what a mid-major would get but it would send a message.

Did everyone see in the paper about Coach K's possible violation of offering a schollie to a player at a AAU tournament?

Yes but nothing much will happen on this. A secondary violation at best. It could be interpreted that the player was between tournaments, so probably a gray area.

A major violation while on probation for a major violation should be 2 years of no TV and 2 years of no post-season.

A major violation while on probation for a major violation should be 2 years of no TV and 2 years of no post-season.

That's exactly what they'll do. The assistant to the assistant secretary of the athletic department will not be allowed TV interviews for 2 years, or be allowed to travel on the same plane as the team to post season tournaments (but may charter an alternate plane if their Ath. Dept. so chooses). :roll:

Or they'll keep OCU off TV for a couple years...
