what team has received a 3 year post season ban? am I missing something? why do so many of you think that will happen. I'd say there is no chance of that.
You self-impose at the beginning of the year so you're not betraying players and recruits who expected Miami to play in a bowl game. Golden is selling these guys on winning the Coastal and playing for the ACC championship game. "My bad, guys. We ain't going to Charlotte."
^^^this is the whole story. there is ZERO chance of us self imposing after clinching the coastal. sorry

USC got 2. Penn State got 4.
I think we're in the middle, but in no case less than 2.

if self-imposing at the beginning of the season is so logical, why didn't we do it last year?
Probably because the news broke less than a month before the season. No time to get their ducks in a row and thoroughly assess the situation.

Uhhh sorry. We don't have the NOA yet, but we will in a couple weeks. That probably has an impact on whether we self-impose anything.

we assessed it enough to know duration of suspensions before the season started. at which point, we probably knew a bowl ban was happening anyway.
I can tell you it'll matter more to Alex Collins if he misses a bowl game next year than if we miss our 2nd bowl game this year.

No disrespect, Lu, but are you telling me no bowl next year is a deal breaker for Collins? He doesn't have the patience to wait if things do turn out as bad as some fear?

I'm not telling you anything other than Collins really gives A BIG **** about sanctions and bowl games. He's like Clinton Portis in his mentality and attitude. He's really good, knows he's really good, and (this part is speculation) likely considers himself a star for 3 years (before leaving). Yes, I think a bowl ban during his tenure would play a role in his decision and I know for a fact he's highly in tune with what will happen vis a vis sanctions.
We can hope kids are as crazy Canes as Duke, and maybe Collins is a bigtime loyalist, but I don't think it's unreasonable for him to worry about his bottom line.

Thanks, Lu. I could understand worrying about 2 more years if I'm him, but 1 surprises me that it matters so much -I am not thinking wer're BCS bound next year.
