INDIANAPOLIS -- The NCAA passed a package of sweeping changes Tuesday intended to crack down [deleted] rule-breaking schools and coaches.

Under the new legislation, approved by the 13-member board of directors, programs that commit the most egregious infractions could face postseason bans of two to four years and fines stretching into the millions, while coaches could face suspensions of up to one year for violations committed by their staffs. The board also approved measures to expand the penalty structure from two tiers to four, create new penalty guidelines and speed up the litigation process.

making new rules does little if you don't enforce them and enforce them equally without discrimination.
The ncaa (national committee of austin athletics) is a joke. They do little to enforce the rules they already have let alone making new, more stringent ones.

Fresno State should be very worried. Alabama and Ohio State, not so much.
