What our coaches (allegedly) did was against NCAA rules last year and still is against NCAA rules. Coaching staffs could not funnel money to players last year and they still can't this year.

I don't think anyone that posts on here really knows what was done. All I have heard is a couple of asst coaches were passing $ to recruits or players but there has been no official statement on that I have seen. Please correct me on this if there has. Cleary Pruitt was fired for some wrong doing but what? I agree the NCAA is a piss poor organization now but they still do have some power so telling them to go pound sand is probably not the best solution.

There was a bit of lying to compliance officials.

We are going to have to pay the piper. It does not matter if it is the current NCAA, a modernized NCAA or whatever comes out of the NCAA.

Regardless of super conferences running their own show, that wont happen for several years. So, till then, it is the NCAA.

What we did was against the rules. Rules from the last 100 years and rules for the next unless college football becomes officially NFL minor leagues, which it wont.

You late to the party, I would have told them to stick it months ago. NIL has nothing to do with though, the NCAA can't stop compensation in any form.

There may be some penalty, but we should try to keep this cooperative and negotiated.
The NCAA should consider UT's top-level response when the violations were discovered to be the textbook case that explains how to handle the situation. The guilty employees lost their jobs. Players who benefited are probably gone. There's not a lot of value in following that with punishment of the innocent.
Vacate the last 3 wins from the Pruitt era and move on.
Or make the penalty "community service" with us presenting seminars on how the situation was handled correctly.

Unfortunately, the guilty, coaches don't get punished, only the poor players (Both old and new), and the new coaches ; not to mention the fans. Basically they punish everybody but the guilty. Sounds like the American way.;)

And then what? Sankey and Birmingham?

It is like anarchists - "yay no gubmint!". Ok...and then what?

Maybe it turns out better, but you better have a better plan than pure chaos.

And besides, this would have been illegal under any entity controlled by universities. This isn't merely an NCAA thing - the NCAA and its rules are made by the universitities. They all agreed on X set of rules. We clearly broke them. Should we be set free for any legit reason? Should a rival not be punished for cheating all the same? The schools make up the rules. Call it NCAA or SuperSEC or P5AA...it's the same people behind the curtain.

It’s against the rules, yet it is going on at every major football program in the nation…

A Supreme Court decision tells you what the law has always been. From 1787.
