It will be interesting to see how the NCAA deals with this:

You're too generous, RF. Since it's not Alabama, there's obviously no comparison.Redwood Forrest said:
I too look for no more than an Arkansas-type punishment. As you said, a love tap on the wrist, with a kiss to make it all better.
Well, gosh, no need to punish the current players and coaches for those past transgressions, right???

They won't get any punishment for football unless it is a wrist slap. They only found one football violation...a player receiving $500.
inside sources indicate that in the wake of the ohio state scandal, the university of alabama will lose two gymnastic scholarships, one basketball scholarship, and must limit recruiting visits for football coaches.
according to ncaa president myles brand, "the negative influences of the university of alabama's recent rules violations have had a more far-reaching impact than was originally believed. we are confident that a more proactive stance in regard to the activities of rogue boosters will aid in reducing the influence of money on college athletics."
in a related story, the ncaa announced that members of the committee on infractions have signed an endorsement deal with trojan condoms believed to be in the nine-figure range. when asked about the deal, tom yeager stated, "when you screw as many people as we do on a regular basis, it only makes sense to afford yourself the best protection money can buy!"

If ND football and Mich basketball didnt get half of what we got for their REAL scandals, dont hold your breath that Ohio St will get more than a " dont do this again" note from the nazis.
The NZAA won't deal with this....its their beloved Ohio State University. They are above the Mason/Dixon line.J4Bama said:
The Ncaazi's won't hurt the university of Woody Hayes. They are not in the SEC nor are they ALABAMA.
I guess we all seen this coming or should I say expected the NCAA investigation into the Clarett allegations against the OSU football program not to find anything.
It looks like the NCAA has completely cleared OSU of the Clarett allegations. When the Clarett allegations first came to light there were other OSU players that also spoke out. How could the NCAA not find any evidence to substantiate the Clarett allegations in a thorough investigation? Other OSU players were talking to the press about the same type things as Clarett. After all Jim Tressle was involved in the exact same sort of illegal activity in his program at Youngstown State.
NCAA finds nine violations; one with football

I agree. I believe that any player involved in something such as receiving improper benefits should be suspended. Any coach involved should be suspended or fired. Any booster involved, disassociated. And, fine the school's athletic department if they had knowledge of the wrongdoing and did nothing to stop it.Bamaro said:
But taking away scholarships and bowl trips are wrong. It certainly punishes the innocent. I have always felt this way.
If the NCAA would have investigated just the info in the articles linked above they would most likely have found other violations. The NCAA now says when questioned about the Clarett allegations that they were unable to interview Clarett. Are you kidding me? What about the other players, the boosters, etc.? This situation is totally unbelievable to me.Crimson Surfer said:

...the fat one on the case. Even if he doesn't know anything he can always make it up. That is what he did in the Bama case.
