UL-L Accused of "Major Recruiting Violations"

[TYLERTECHSAS]

Give them the penalty of "Death by Bonga Bonga".

Seriously though it's USL and the Belch so isn't that like cheating at pee wee playground football? Right?

Are they giving the trophy and all their rings back?

Seriously though that sucks for their players.

Needs to be posted on the Sunbelt and CUSA site by someone. Nobody should want to ever have to play these guys.

It's already on the belt board. I don't see a need for it to be on the CUSA board since they aren't in the conference. I'm sure it'll get around to them soon enough without a Tech person posting it.

I just want to help keep it that way.

This is where someone will post something about glass houses.

Dwayne will do that. He ALWAYS reminds us to whistle as we walk by the graveyard.

If Saunders paid living expenses for recruits, I wonder where the $ came from?

So ULL has self imposed sanctions. I don't know much about this kind of thing. Is it likely the NCAA will accept the sanctions or might they impose even more severe measures?

In cases like this, the university will self-impose penalties in the hopes that the NCAA decides that those penalties are harsh enough. The self-imposed penalties are the minimum right now. The NCAA could impose harsher penalties in addition to the self-imposed ones if needed.

It sounds like the university (except for David Saunders) cooperated with the investigation and didn't try to stonewall the NCAA Enforcement Unit. That should help the university.

However, they are not part of the Autonomous Five, which doesn't bode well for them concerning penalties.

I find it difficult to believe that an assistant coach would go to this much trouble to set up such a complex testing environment to cheat on ACT's, and the Head Coach (HUD) wouldn't know about it.

In the cases of self imposed sanctions I recall the NCAA usually came back with more. UNC tried a similar self-imposed sanction and the NCAA tacked on a 1 year bowl ban and loss of 15 scholarships.

Will they have to vacate the 9 New Orleans bowl wins?

7 out of 9

SMU is the NCAA's most recent example of not accepting a university's self-imposed punishment. A couple of weeks ago, the NCAA told SMU "not good enough", and laid the wood to SMU and it's mens basketball coach, Larry Brown. It was brutal.

Here's what an SMU guy just posted on line about their experience 2 weeks ago:

Decision handed down last week. We had a secretary take an online class for a player. Post season ban, coach suspended 9 games, scholarships reduced by 9 over 3 years, vacated wins and reduced recruiting visits

We self reported, fired the secretary and an assistant coach

it is not a P5 school so the NCAA will bring the hammer to their ass

also, we need to be on the horn with any OOC matches they have that we like...most contracts will have a sanction clause / condition allowing the host school on a 1-0 deal to drop the game....I have no idea how to get their future schedules and aint googling it.
