I think that may have happened recently somewhere . . .

Yep, ONE LOW-LIFE broke the rules and that screwed up an entire program and hurt students for years to come, three people lost their jobs over it, even though NONE OF THEM had anything to do with it.
Yet a QB from orey-gone got arrested twice, once for drugs and once for burglary, and when the coach benched him (pending sentencing) the NCAA let him transfer to another Div 1 team and keep playing.
Wasn't it blount who was benched for an entire season for taking a total puzzy-arsed cheap shot after the game was over at a Boise player who was not looking, until orey-gone needed him and retracted the suspension to let him play so they could compete for the BCS? Yes, I think it was.
They should have kicked him out of school, but instead they sold out their morals and ethics to let him make money for the school.
THE ohio state had what, six players suspended for breaking basically the same rules that USC was punished for, yet the team faced NO SANCTIONS! Heck the NFL was tougher on one of the punks than the NCAA was. Where did he end up? Oh that right, the RAIDERS. Perfect fit.
I know, the coach was forced to quit, AFTER IT WAS PROVEN THAT HE COVERED UP THE RULES INFRACTIONS. still, not even a slap on the wrist.
Then there was that team down in Flore-duh that got caught helping the players cheat in classes ... players who were for all intents and purposes totally illiterate. How did that end up? I don't remember reading about any sanctions.
A couple years back the LSU football team had 8 different players arrested in one season for different infractions with three players cut after they were locked up, yet I don't remember any sanctions.
Yep, it's pretty fair how that NCAA doles out punishment.
Everyone knows they don't try to even the playing field by knocking down divisional dynasties to let the other teams compete, maybe they should get rid of the BCS system and just give all teams PARTICIPANT trophies.
USC, even though they can't recruit becasue of no bowl games, and are limited to 15 scholarships per yer and no more than a total of what, 30? 40? caint remember but it's a much lower number than other teams, and despiter all that they are still rated in the top 20 in the nation in all the polls except the BCS, which they are not eligible to be in.
Not bad, swimming upstream with handcuffs on and still nearly winning the races.
They'll end up losing to stanford and orey-gone and will drop out of the polls, and their QB will go pro this year and next year they'll suck, but as soon as these BS sanctions are over they'll climb back to the top and you'll all hate it, and I'll laugh.
