NCAA To Announce Punishment at 10am Today

How was Coach's demeanor tonight? Did he give a slight hint? Anything we can pick apart before dday?
I'm sick of trying to pick apart dmoneys posts.

As Ive said before, I really hope they use this decision to set a new precedent and make a statement by going harder after the actual people who f*cked up, and not punishing players and coaches that had nothing to do with anything years after the fact. I hope they hammer guys like Hurtt, make a REAL statement that if you break the rules, you cant just skate out to another program, and leave the mess for someone else to clean up, who had nothing to do with the transgressions to begin with. Punish the ACTUAL violators. ****, why punish UM even more at this point? UM was a victim in all this too. Shapiro was a con man scum bag who preyed upon college athletes from disdvantaged backgrounds. Where is the proof that the school, or even the AD, or HC had any idea any of this was going on? By all accounts our compliance people tried as hard as any program could to keep trouble away from the program. Our HC warned coaches and players to stay away from this guy. There is only so much a University can do to stop a predatory criminal like this from trying to ingratiate himself with some players OFF campus.

Again, this is a rather unique case. The LOIC case IMO is bullsh*t here. What else could UM have done? What else could ANY program do? The players arent slaves or prisoners. You cant lock them in their dorm rooms and keep them from going out to parties, bars and clubs. If some assistants were involved, HAMMER those F*CKERS. But by all accounts, our AD and the HC had no idea this was going on. So what else can a program do??? IF these f*ckers want to actually do something, hammer the coaches who were involved, but dont punish a bunch of coaches and players that did nothing wrong, and punish a University that was ITSELF a victim in all this.

This! because of...

"We believe strongly in the principles and values of fairness and due process," university president Donna Shalala said Feb. 18, one day before the school received its allegations. "However, we have been wronged in this investigation, and we believe that this process must come to a swift resolution, which includes no additional punitive measures beyond those already self-imposed."

Y'all crazy if you think the NCAA is scared. They don't give any *****. To quote a legend, not one iota.

They have their own agenda and will not be stopped.

That may be true but they have a good thing going and don't want outsiders nosing around turning up info. Think is DS calls in a few favors on Capitol Hill and Emmert has to sit in front of Congress. Lots of people will not appriciate that boat being rocked.

Then again hubris can be a **** of a thing
 
wtf is this. Randy Phillips is a cot **** traitor.

http://www.sun-sentinel.com/sports/...nes-ncaa-1022-20131031,0,7042914.story?page=1

Randy Phillips knew he was far from home the moment he headed toward the bathroom at a South Beach nightclub a few years ago.

Before he could make his way, he was stopped by the friend who accompanied him at the club. The friend asked if Phillips wanted an escort from his gun-carrying bodyguard.

It was then he knew how lavish life was going to be hanging with this new friend, former University of Miami booster Nevin Shapiro, now in prison for his role in a Ponzi scheme.


"I felt like I was on top of the world," Phillips said. "Man, I come from Belle Glade, Florida. We don't have a Wal-Mart. We don't have a movie theater. So imagine this."

Phillips, who played at UM from 2005-09, was one of the players named in the scandalous Yahoo Sports! report that shocked college football the summer of 2011. None of the accused has spoken publicly on his involvement with Shapiro.

Until now.

The university is expected to receive its penalty Tuesday after an investigation of the allegations, of which Phillips says most are true. He would know, considering he says he was Shapiro's right-hand man throughout college. There were cars. There were expensive meals. There were clothes. And, of course, there were women.

"I know if [Shapiro] said it, he did it," Phillips said. "There were no lies in there, not to my knowledge. … The stuff that he said [in the Yahoo Sports! article], he had already told me had happened."

Really Randy? Shapiro never lied?

Nevin is still claiming he was innocent and an actual victim in his own billion dollar Ponzi scheme.
