CockInYourEar Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 Sweet, nothing more than what we proposed for punishment...that's rare for these NCAA hearings. I think our AD said it best when he said that the hotel fiasco was just someone who looked at the $ amounts and figured it was the same as renting a local apartment and it must be "ok", really that it was just a university offical's judgement error not the players'. We paid the fine, we're on probation, and we hired 8 more people to help in the compliance office to keep this from happening again. Our independent counsel and the team that setup the strategy to deal with this did a great job. Quote Link to comment
CockInYourEar Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 *bump* ncaa decision handed down today: South Carolina will lose 12 football scholarships after the NCAA delivered its final verdict from its investigation into the school's athletics programs. <snip> The football program also will have its official visits cut from 56 to 30 in the 2012-13 academic year. On the positive side, there was no postseason ban and the scholarship hits shouldn't hurt enough to slow the team's recent success. Overall, South Carolina's athletic department received a public reprimand and censure along with three years probation. LINK That just goes to show that cheaters never win, and winners never cheat. Oh wait. I guess the Cheating Gamecocks did kick our ass in the Cap-One fiasco bowl. Doohhh! How did I know that it'd be you to bring this up.... You aren't still mad about the Cap One Bowl thresing, are you? Quote Link to comment
Muck Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 H O W E V E R....... You're not a cheater unless you get caught,.... Interesting handle you've got there. Quote Link to comment
NUance Posted April 30, 2012 Author Share Posted April 30, 2012 How did I know that it'd be you to bring this up.... You aren't still mad about the Cap One Bowl thresing, are you? Mad? No. Just perplexed. Wondering why a team would feel compelled to CHEAT when they have a roster full of All-World talent? (Gamecocks 2012 NFL draft: two 1st round picks, six drafted overall.) Too bad the ncaa didn't vacate some of last year's wins from the cheating gamecocks. Like the Cap One bowl. Quote Link to comment
