Next Scandal: Oregon? Per @ScriptOhio

  • And Stanford. The public ivy vs the hidden ivy. Should be great! (at least for me biggrin)

  • They should investigate these schools quietly ,and punish them accordingly.The whole world doesn't have to know the school or coach made a mistake by committing a recruiting violation or so forth.That gives this sport a huge black eye.

    Hmmm...how are you going to punish someone by handing down sanctions, and not expect the whole world to know that they obviously committed major violations?

    And when bowl season comes, and a team that is 10-3 doesn't make a bowl game, what do you tell the fans?

    If conferences ever go to 16 teams, the ACC bringing in WVU, Pitt, Syracuse, and UCONN make perfect sense. We can only hope...

    UCONN and Pitt would be B1G bound if ever offered

    Joe Pa runs a clean program. At least that what his son tells him. Seriously though, PSU is one of the only football programs to not be hit with sanctions.

    Not saying they're dirty, because I don't think they are, but if they were the NCAA wouldn't hit them until some time after JoePa retired. He's the last "mythical" coach, one of the guys all the "old guys" talk about and the NCAA doesn't want that reputation ruined because it would be so bad for the sport (if JoePa cheated, then everyone must cheat). Also, it would make the NCAA look like it was picking on an old man, and nobody wants to have that reputation.

    However, say like 5 years after his retirement, if PSU was dirty, I think you'd see the NCAA start to sniff around. That's enough time to pin it all on the replacement and allow PSU to say "the pressure of following Joe was just too tough to not break the rules"

    We scheduled end of the season games with Hawaii to act as our bowl games.

    I don't believe in Bowl sanctions,never have and never will,taking away a school's Bowl privilege doesn't mean some where in the future they won't recommit the same act.Plus i don't think it's fair on the kids who have worked their butts off to be in this position,who wants to compete for a national tittle,i'm saying there has to be different punishments to hand down for those specific individuals who violate NCAA regulations.
