I know its hard to get back on track with all the disturbing news, but lets try to take a break. Surprised no one has posted this yet. I think Nebraska and Bo Pelini are going to be big winners in recruiting over all that is going on. :bonesflag:

Wow, 5 scholarships over a three-year period beginning next year. Not too bad for "the second-worst allegation it can make against an athletic program."

Its only "self-imposed" though. Maybe, the NCAA grows some stones and pull a Goodell.

I see. I figured they were catching a break due to the NCAA having their hands full with the PSU scandal.

FtM was charged to Boise State and The School Up North.

Not much happened to them.

$2,000 in FtM should be a minor FtM charge. I'd expect more than what The School Up North got but not much more.

I am shocked that we really haven't heard anything on Miami yet.

Let's be clear here: this is 5 total scholarships over the next 3 years, not 5 per year for the next 3 years.

Yup, and even the guys on the Big Ten Network said it was too little. The only damaging thing done is that tOSU was slapped with the 'failure to monitor' label by the NCAA.

That doesn't bode well for whatever punishment the NCAA cooks up for tOSU down the road.

The school better fire Gene Smith pronto. I am absolutely sick of seeing that guy on television tell me its not a systemic problem and that he can't monitor everything. Get me an AD who is up to the task because I am not a fan of my alma mater getting dragged through the mud and that douche isn't helping.
