So it is essentially alright to have a false curriculum, but this gets Mizzou a year bowl ban? Really? The arbitrary nature of the NCAA. It is truly amazing it hasn't killed college athletics.

I knew we should have never let them in the conference...cheaters!
Who knew they were being investigated? There is your big difference between Alabama and the others.
Sounds like Mizzou didnt 'lawyer up' enough...otherwise the penalties would be a slap on the wrist...or they made the dreadful mistake of cooperating with the NCAA cause, you know, thats the right thing to do.
I guess if the football players father tried to receive $180k through an agent to have him attend Mizzou they could have played for the national championship?
This is, simply stated, what the NCAA is. It is why you NEVER, NEVER, ever, Never ever admit anything.
The answer to any NCAA question regarding inadmissible benefits or academic fraud is always, "We don't know what you are talking about---prove it".
She said she did it. The kids say otherwise. Prove it. This is the Auburn method and why Cam played. It is what several of the wheels at Ole Miss wanted to do but the compliance department had already admitted to several of the lower level violations. But the University stood strong on the ACT stuff from 10 years ago and did not admit involvement beyond a single rogue coach who got hit while with another school. It was all him and we never knew--------
The penalties match their new matrix.

I don't know how the NCAA can justify this when they let NC get off scot free for what I remember much worse violations.
Whenever possible lawyer up, reveal nothing to investigators, and menace the NCAA.
I owe it to the people to have a signature...so here goes nothing!
My take aways from this:
UNC, the one that is always held up as the bastion of academic excellence, basically said by how they handle their investigation that they have no “integrity”.
Missouri, by admitting what the tutor did was fully in violation of core principles of their institution, said “yes we do have integrity”.
And the NCAA chooses to screw them.
Any institution that willing cooperates with the NCAA from this point forward is stupid. Lawyer up and say “prove it”.
UNC skated on a technicality. The NCAA rules focus on benefits not available to regular students. The fake classes UNC had were available to all; they just steered athletes to them.
What is more telling about the NCAA is that they took no action to close that particular loophole.
This is the darkest timeline.
