if i had to guess, there are a few people that have cooperated with the NCAA in exchange for immunity. it appears Marve may be one and i would not be surprised if there are others, perhaps even Hurtt.
i would not also be surprised if they come down real hard on UM, given the nature, scope, and duration of violations and the fact that it involves 2 sports. not sure whether this would be accurate, but would not violations in 2 sports suggest loss of institutional control and failure to monitor?
i'm a bit pessimistic, although i also believe (a) we've self imposed a whole of hurt already which should give us some good credit, (b) shalala is a competent institutional negotiator that could work some magic with the NCAA powers that be, and (c) there seems to be a shift from punishing the institution that no longer houses the violators to punishing the violators when they've moved to other institutions.
Unless Hurtt has some smoking gun that he was given bags of cash by Shannon to go get guys he should get no immunity. He is a coach. He is one of the big fishes. He is one of the guys they want to make an example of.
Yeah, I'm getting the feeling its just FTM, not LOIC, which suggests no more bowls and only a limited amount of scholies lost.
and all of that has been communicated to recruitsthere is nothing in the NOA that the school doesnt already know
Not the school, the recruits.
Even if it has just seeing the allegations listed all over the media, and then undoubtably blown out of preportion by those recruiting against us, is definitely something that can rattle a recruit this close to NSD...
It won't be given to the media unless UM chooses to reveal it to the media.
A third bowl ban is absolutely ridiculous. Penn St. got 4! Benihana , bowling, and boat rides is just a notch below a f*cking child molestation ring!
IF we already have recieved the draft there have been some positve remarks, tweets, hires by the canes staff that point to a favorable outcome such as "we have the best cooperating staff", Cristobal hire, etc. Golden's remarks outlines by another poster above are also positive imo. There are several moles posting here about January 18th and to them I say- We will own you soon and make you our *******. Go canes!

### UM doesn't know what to expect when it receives NCAA allegations imminently, but UM is optimistic there won't be any big surprises based on the fact that the NCAA hasn't informed UM of any bombshells recently. UM is hopeful of avoiding another bowl ban, but nobody will know that until the infractions committee rules in a few months. Scholarship reductions remain likely....
By the way, Jamie Israel, who was UM's associate compliance director when some alleged violations occurred, now works for the NCAA, as assistant director for academic and membership affairs. He's not involved in the investigation, but the NCAA says there is no rule to prevent him (or anyone else) from giving information to the enforcement committee. Israel, who is respected by his former UM peers, declined to comment.

This guy is a piece of ****. Any chance he gets is to try to destroy us.
PS: The Notice info is now viral: http://collegefootballtalk.nbcsport...ring-notice-of-allegations-for-miami/related/
Some of you guys need to not take everything so personally; that's not viral, that's just a news update. The media does the same thing whenever a big case against a big school has an update. They did this for OSU, USC, UNC, etc and one can argue this is bigger than all of those cases. They are reporting relevant news to the sports world; it's the internet age, everything gets reported. It may not be news we like, but that doesn't change the fact that it's news and should be reported.
Hey buddy, Fuccccccccccccccck that fat midget *******.
Way to defend the media, kudos to you.
We have the worst LOCAL media and the worst fans. How could you defend them?
If Miami doesn't receive LOIC and only gets FTM then the NCAA's final judgement will be time served. No way they pile on more sanctions with failure to monitor. If that's the case then CFB better watch out because Golden is about to release **** on them...
They asked for coaches/assistants to be available from 3 different sports (mens football and basketball and womens basketball), as much as I would like to believe we wont end up with LOIC, I find that very unlikely with 3 different sports being involved.
Yeah, I'm getting the feeling its just FTM, not LOIC, which suggests no more bowls and only a limited amount of scholies lost.
LOIC isn't such a big deal anymore. A few schools have gotten that recently and haven't been torn to the ground. The major movement with the NCAA under Emmert's watch has been to go after the corches involved. He's emphasized that along with being more uniform in punishments handed down. That's why you've seen very similar penalties for the schools that have been punished over the last couple years.
Manny is a fat load of ****, who goes out of his way to fugg things up for UM. He's another local media **** hole, who is trying to make a name for himself by bringing UM down. I'll never read another thing that fat lump of **** has to say. And I would hope that UM does him like they did that other load Dan Steroideo. If I'm UM I start cutting off access to any media member who shows himself to be a muckraking rat piece of crap.

That's pretty encouraging to me. If they were going to make the case that this was widespread and rampant throughout the athletic department, it seems unlikely they would still have Israel on staff.

.@GinoTorretta My GUESS UM gets LOIC; maybe 1 more postseason ban (meaning would have 3 served) & significant scholarship losses.
