Do we play for the title? Or impose bowl ban? Hard to believe the NCAA will have anything to say until after the season is completed.

Coastal- Play for the title
Any other bowl- Prob. self impose
I think a lot of it has to do with what their bowl options actually are.
 
Tough decision. So I'm assuming if we self-imposed 2 bowl bans... that when punishment time comes around the NCAA may agree that 2 was enough and then not deliver bowl bans?
Is that the idea?

I've never heard of a team self-imposing more than 1 year bowl ban.
 
... then Golden is a freakin' wizard.

Tough choice. I would hate to be sitting in Ohio St's shoes where they did not self-impose last year and are now looking solid in the conference this year.
 
If we're going to a BCS bowl.. take the money and worry about the bowl ban later.. if we're going to some dump bowl self impose and see if that helps with sanctions.

It's a postseason ban, not just a bowl ban.

So if we win the Coastal, we'd have to forfeit the ACCCG as well as the bowl game we'd play in after the ACCCG.

If we win the division, I don't see us imposing a postseason ban.

One? They are going tgo hammer us to the point where this program probably won't be in position to go to a bowl again. play for the title.

Of course, there's a very good chance we crap our pants against UNC and make this wjole issue moot anyways.
 
I say take the ban regardless. Lets be real, next year we will be much better. The year after that, same thing. Self impose one more now so that the kids being recruited (Thomas, Sony, Lane...etc.) won't have to worry down the line. Our top players now would all get a great chance at a BCS bowl next year and the year after.
 
If UM were so inclined, they should have self imposed a ban already.

BTW, a ban could theoretically include only a conference championship, only a bowl game, etc. Normally, the NCAA will make it a complete postseason ban, but the ban can be much more specific, as the wording of the rule (19.5.2(g) for those keeping track) is "Prohibition against specified competition in the sport."

Cheer the **** up already, you doom and gloom MF'er!
 
It will be the hardest decision of goldenseal life but we should self impose...it sucks for the seniors and I feel bad for a lot of them especially guys like mike James and Brandon McGee...but if you think about it
1.it could be a major difference in recruiting and we could maybe finally get jumbo fisher to shut the **** up about our program and 2. Do you realize how many starters we are returning? We have one senior starting on offense and 2 or 3 on d(changes like every game)... If we improve as the year goes on, I'm not even lying we could be legit national title contenders next year
