So does the S Carolina situation benefit us with anyone?

I noticed their hearing wasn't till a couple weeks after NSD. Pretty convenient I'd say.

Here's what Mr. sec.com has to say about it.

"A little more than a year ago, Steve Spurrier practically dared the NCAA to “poke around” his program (as he said at the time). Now — after receiving a letter of allegations from college sports’ governing body — the Ol’ Ball Coach’s tune has changed a bit:


“I hope we are not in serious trouble. I don’t think we are going to be, but you work these things out. … I don’t think it’s embarrassing to get a letter. I think some stuff can happen. … I follow the rules as closely as I possibly can. If I do break one, I turn myself in.”


Spurrier declined to say whether or not he knew the two South Carolina boosters were were named by the NCAA and disassociated by the university. He also refused to say whether quarterbacks coach GA Mangus — who was named in the NCAA’s letter — had a relationship with those boosters.

Meanwhile, school president Harris Pastides said USC takes the allegations “very seriously.” The school should. Thanks to violations committed under previous coach Lou Holtz, Carolina could be viewed as a repeat violator and could — theoretically — be dealt much stronger punishments as a result.

As for Spurrier, we suggested last August that the coach was wading into dangerous waters by inviting anyone who wanted could dig into his program. While a head coach may be clean as can be, he has no way of knowing what his assistants and boosters might be doing when they’re outside his gaze. For that reason, every NCAA investigation should be taken stone-cold seriously. And talking big about one’s cleanliness is only asking for trouble."

I want to laugh at Spurrier and the Cocks, but I know that as soon as I did, something bad would come out about UT and we would get the death penalty.

All they have to do is vacate the 6 wins from 10 years ago and all is forgiven....NCAA is a joke

No one knows for sure. We'll just have to wait for the NCAA to conduct its 5 years investigation and we may know something by 2016.

This violation falls within the period of repeat offenders rule. That in itself makes it a major violation, regardless of the more than $50,000 improper benefits.

It depends on what mood the NCAA is in. Lack of institutional control and repeat offenders are no-no's. Blackburn saved us... so if it's determined that SC compliance was aware of the infractions and turned a blind eye, then SC could get hit hard. However, the NCAA has turned into a kangaroo court, so who the hell really knows how this plays out.

And self impose 3 schollys lost over a 3 year period. I'm convinced you could be caught paying players, and not suffer too much from it.

This isn't THAT serious. But getting to your question on benefiting TN, I think it could in this way - CSS hates the side stuff to the job, and really just likes "coaching ball." If he gets dragged through a long drawn out process I could see him retiring a year or two early just to get back to the golf course. That would of course end USCjr as a relevant SEC program.

However the way they have hired "retired" future hall of fame coaches in the past (Holtz/ CSS) , watch them get Urban Myer or something to replace him!
