Player Punishment

[Wireless1]

SInce it appears Plowman has admitted to the UT coaching staff providing mega sized Happy Meals to players and recruits, how will the players that received the extra benefits be punished? If the player accepted a benefit then went elsewhere will they be punished too?

 

[Volbrando]

probably give it Bama so they can gas up their players new dodge chargers

"Reggie Bush, please pick up the white courtesy phone."

 

[Mose Phillip's Watch]

Pay back $75,000 ?

"Reggie Bush, please pick up the white courtesy phone."

The start of all our coaching fiasco, IMO.
I blame Pete Carroll, but he just ran away from the Reggie Bush problem.
To complete the circle, just hire Pete

I bet Mims won't be punished.....

If they are an active player they probably will be asked to pay back whatever benefits they knowingly accepted and face a suspension of at least a couple games. If they cannot pay back the benefits then they would be suspended indefinitely until the benefits are paid back in full. That’s pretty much what happened to James Wiseman for Memphis Basketball. His family accepted money from Penny Hardaway before he was hired on as head coach but he was deemed a booster at the time so it was an NCAA violation. Wiseman either couldn’t pay back the money or chose not to, so he dropped out and and started prepping for the NBA Draft. I would expect something similar, if not more severe, since the staff involved were actively employed and paying players. I also wouldn’t be surprised if the school got a 1 or 2 year bowl ban, along with scholarship reductions. I’m expecting the worse at this point because nothing ever seems to go our way.

They will be asked to stay at UT.......that’s punishment enough

If coach's did pay recruits then those coaches should never be allowed to coach again because they are to stupid to buy better players.

So we should have given them a new Charger Hellcat, plus a McDonald's bag full of money, right?

Except none of that really happened. Stuff happened but not that.

Immediate ineligibility. They know the rules and they broke them. **** 'em.

So like, gonna fill the bags with Big Mac's and make them eat them all? God, you are cruel.

 

[Illinoisvolfan2]

As punishment force them to play the 2021 season.

 

[keenobserver]

Force them to watch game film of how they played this season.

Can they be punished if they’ve already transferred? I would hate to see DeAndre Johnson penalized after the whistle.

Do you really believe the McDs bags full of cash? Come on man

I wish I had faith that we weren't that stupid. I also don't think it was the "go to" cheating scheme, just one of many I am sure.

I don’t think THAT specific thing was done.

You left your first sentence incomplete.

If a player received money or other substantial benefits, the SEC and NCAA should ban the person from ever playing college football period. If this was enforced, players might refuse if ever offered this punishment.

The same report about the McDonald's bags mentioned Witten as a potential coach. If you believe any of that, what's wrong with you?

I’m sure the income wasn’t reported to the IRS.
