Next Step: Infractions Appeal Commitee

Advertisement
I don't want us to appeal unless the sanctions are egregious. Let's take our medicine and move on.
 
UM will not work out an agreement with anyone. UM will either accept the sanctions or not. If they accept them, then that's the end of the story. If they appeal, then everyone will know within 15 days of UM's receipt of the infractions report.
 
WTH....Why is this even relevant? I believe the next step is for the #NCAA to get off their *** and hand over the COI. Nothing else matters until then.

Andrew nobody wants to go to court, too often a frustrating,expensive losing proposition for all involved. With that said Shlala will not accept a lack of institutional control citation (or sanctions). She'll have a difficult time with another bowl game loss and Al Golden will have a hard time with USC type scholarship losses and Donna has to cover his back. We're in good hands with Shalala but if Glazier doesn't get an agreement that's acceptable things could get ugly. JMO (just my opinion)

Is that you DBC?
 
The next step should be at least a four game ban for OP. This thread was far worse than anything Dye did.

Unless UM and the NCAA arrive at an agreed to settlement the next step before court proceedings is the Infractions Appeal Committee.

The Division I Infractions Appeals Committee serves as the final step in the infractions process. Any school or individual who is penalized or named in a finding of violation may appeal a Committee on Infractions decision. The appeal is not a new hearing that provides a second chance to argue the case.

After committee reviews a written appeal or holds an in-person hearing, it can reverse or modify a Committee on Infractions ruling. In order to change a ruling, the school or individual must prove one of the following: the ruling by the committee on infractions was clearly contrary to the evidence; the individual or school did not actually break NCAA rules; there was a procedural error that caused the committee on infractions to find a violation of NCAA rules; or the penalty was excessive.

Five members are appointed from the general public (one member) and the NCAA membership and serve three-year terms, up to nine years.

Current members
W. Anthony Jenkins, ****inson Wright - A Detroit attorney who holds degrees from both Harvard and Princeton, Jenkins practices corporate, real estate and development law. He also serves as his firm’s Chief Diversity Officer. His term ends in September 2014, and he is eligible for reappointment.

Susan Lipnickey, Miami (Ohio) – Lipnickey is a health studies professor and the faculty athletics representative at Miami (Ohio). She earned her PhD at Ohio State and also serves on the NCAA’s Leadership Council. Her term expires in September 2015.

Patricia C. Ohlendorf, Texas – Ohlendorf is vice-president of institutional relations and legal at Texas. She began her career at the institution in 1971. She holds bachelor’s and law degrees from Texas. Her term expires in September 2015, and she is eligible for reappointment.

David Williams II, Vanderbilt – Williams is vice chancellor for university affairs and Athletics & Athletic Director. He is also a law professor at Vanderbilt. He teaches tax and sports law as well as law and education courses. He holds degrees from Northern Michigan, Detroit and New York University. His term expires in September 2014, and he is eligible for reappointment.
Jack H. Friedenthal, George Washington – A former Committee on Infractions member, Friedenthal is law professor and faculty athletics representative at George Washington. He holds degrees from Stanford and Harvard. His term expires in September 2014.

I had David Williams for my sports law class. Seemed like a good guy. I know he did use to work for the luckeyes before Vandy.

Again, just my opinion, but unless there is an acceptable resolution this upcoming week there will be some very upset people in Coral Gables. The constant delays caused by the NCAA will, when you consider probation, suspensions and scholarship losses, make this a 5 to 7 year penalty and that's worse than USC or Penn State.
