This is, without a doubt, the most well written piece we have seen on this Board. With all due respect to Peter, D$, the NY Times, ESPN, CBSSports writers, etc. who have works posted here, this BY FAR ECLIPESES those writings.
A MUST READ FOR EVERYONE!!!
Peter, see if you can get this guy on board as a regular writter!!!
Here's the response I got from Joe Nocera at the NYT:

This guy always has an interesting take and it really focuses on the flaws of the supposed "external review" that the NCAA paid for.

In Brazil he will never pay...well you guys can hang out with him along with us every day over at Sebastian's pub. he should never have to pay for a drink ever again at a bar or a game.
This shows that the NCAA’s purpose was not to discover the truth, but instead to simply find a way to nail Miami. They were much more comfortable taking Shapiro’s word on allegations than actually talking to Paul Dee. See, the problem they have is Paul Dee was a member of the infractions and was respected. If he said something that contradicted the statements Shapiro made, then the NCAA would have to believe Dee over Shapiro, even if Shapiro took the extraordinary step of repeating an accusation more than once. So, how did the NCAA find a “way around” that? They simply didn’t ask someone that might contradict Shapiro. They also did not speak to former ‘Canes Head Coach Randy Shannon, who by all accounts actually warned players off of Shapiro, and likely had some ability to refute Shapiro. That’s correct. The NCAA charged Miami with lack of institutional control without talking to the people in control of the institution.
