Partially it is that UL and SMU are undoubted penalized under new infractions rules; whereas, UNC's infractions took place under old infractions system. Old infractions system carries much more loose rules around penalties, appeals, timeframe for findings, etc. NCAA is going to let all of that play to their advantage for their prized pig.

I would double down on this. It started hurting recruiting, and Pitino saw 4 years of damage vs. scrapping this year.

It's a very young team too. Not really much "senior hurt." Of course, the National Collegiate Avalanche of Antagonists has yet to weigh in.

Clearly they did it to protect season ticket sales for next season.

they deserve 3. an isolated incident involving academic fraud vs numerous years of illegal prostitution with minors who have not even been enrolled. If the first gets you a year in SMUs case then the latter would warrant a good amount more

Maybe we can play a neutral site game halfway in between in Little Rock in a few weeks...lol

sky that is genius. New Orleans NCAA "jail" tourney. Round robin with Syracuse, Louisville and SMU.

They know what's coming. They will have multiple Level Ones and a non-compliance charge.

They are looking at a multi-year ban and Pitino being suspended for a full year. Might as well eat one ban this year, and then the second one next year while Pitino can't coach and start the program over after that.

I wouldn't be surprised if they let current commits out of their signed commitments so that they can go elsewhere and eat the scholarships to start that count as well.

so a rising senior for next year at Louisville could transfer and play next year assuming they get hit with another year? Hmmmmmm…..where could a really nice senior center finish their career for a coach who can get you in the NBA? anyone…..anyone…..Bueller???

The other thing at play is that due to the number of years and people involved, it takes much longer to conduct the UNC investigation.

SMU and Lousyville. A match made in heaven.

Didn't MIZ-ZOU self impose a ban for this year as well. Add them into the tourney!

Sponsor and location ready to go....
