What a joke...Its no wonder the FBI had to step in.... Goes back to the whole thing about: the only reason IU got in that much trouble was because they self-reported. If you disagree with the NCAA, they always back down, it seems... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ephul Posted October 13, 2017 Report Share Posted October 13, 2017 I love the "well, athletes weren't the ONLY ones to benefit". Are you freaking kidding me?

IU Scott Posted October 13, 2017 Report Share Posted October 13, 2017 Disappointed but I am not going to lose sleep over it. I guess they decided they could not conclude that it was just an athletic problem and not an education problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The basketball team did not receive improper benefits because fake classes were offered to every student?!?! I'm sure there are classes like this at every university, but that's an awful excuse as to what makes their actions "acceptable" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tdhoosier Posted October 13, 2017 Report Share Posted October 13, 2017 Maybe we just need to stop pretending that high level athletes go to college to get an 'education'. The NCAA just needs to come out and call a spade a spade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leathernecks Posted October 13, 2017 Report Share Posted October 13, 2017 "The panel is troubled by the university's shifting positions about whether academic fraud occurred on its campus and the credibility of the Cadwalader report, which it distanced itself from after initially supporting the findings. However, NCAA policy is clear. The NCAA defers to its member schools to determine whether academic fraud occurred and, ultimately, the panel is bound to making decisions within the rules set by the membership." That's an actual quote from the report. They defer to the member school to determine if academic fraud occurred? That is without a doubt the dumbest thing I've ever heard. NCAA: "Hey Calipari. None of your players went to class but they all got straight A's. Sounds like academic fraud to me. What do you think?" Calipari: "Ummmm, no?" NCAA: "Oh, okay. Sounds good to me! Have a great day."
