They are worried about having Briles fired when they need to be concerned about retaining their athletics programs. Worse the city of Waco seems to be on the take in this mess. No one can be trusted - typical Texas' mentality when it comes to football. Perfectly sane, intelligent and kind Texans divest themselves of all logic and reason when football enters the conversation.
Penn State should have had its program Death Sentenced and I think Baylor needs to be done the same. Institutions have been pushing the boundaries more and more as the NCAA proves that it will do nothing. Rules? There are few rules left and the bigger your school, the fewer the rules that do exist apply. Someone like Baylor is in the inevitable position of being nationally known and small enough to squash and still make a statement.
We might not be expanding so much as replacing Baylor for being a bit rapey.
If the NCAA does nothing to North Carolina after the cheating festival there, what makes you think the NCAA would do anything about Baylor?
UNC almost won the national championship this year in basketball. Connecticut won a few years back. Penn State is absolved from blame in football. Perennial cheaters like Bama and Clemson.....well, look where they ended up in football this year. And KentYUCKY basketball......nothing needs to be said. The problem is that cheaters DO prosper.

I agree. What should be done and what is done are two very different things. It used to just be the largest names that did this because they felt they were too big to hit, but it is filtering down because nothing is being done to anyone. Penn State should not only have had a Death Sentence it should have been on all sports in perpetuity.
It's the same mentality as applied in the near stock market crash in 2008/2009. The term applied was, "too big to fail".
From Florida State, Miami, UNC, TOSU, Penn State, to XYZ university, there's probably not 1 Lilly white totally clean program in the country (probably outside the service academies), and given the NCAA really doesn't bust or go SMU on anyone antmore, it's no surprise. Cheating pays. Coaches are making 7 figures and there's always the NFL (ie Pete Carroll & Chip Kelly).
Look at Ole Miss. No real shocker there. Went from the outhouse to among the top recruiting classes in the SEC.
It is what it is.

What it is is overlooked cheating. My only real question based upon the pricey cars they drive, their fancy clothes and 'bling' they wear, do the highest paid college players play the best? Or do the best playing ones get paid the most by boosters? Most of these guys come from very modest backgrounds.
If I'm a booster, let me spend $1 million dollars total on all of the players (through their families) that sign with my favorite school and I will give you a top 5 recruiting class. Every year.

I'm not sure, but I think you might be the first person in the history of the internet to use "is is" correctly.
lol it takes more than 1 million total. Cam Newton's father got $250k himself for getting his boy to sign with Auburn.
Maybe it was unintentional, but I think you were right. Good job.
Good for him. Lots of people will make money off Cam, his Dad should get a cut.
