If they forfeit the losses too then they end up coming out ahead. This isn’t very fair.Reading the most recent indictment Gatto is in a world of hurt. Feds are doing a good job of establishing a money trail.
NC ST might be in more trouble than I initially thought after reading it. Their saving grace will be that the coaching staff is not there anymore.
But anytime that a document reads a coach was given $40K to give to a family of a recruit to keep him committed, that is not good as it is not simply a shoe company trying to influence a kids decision, it is that at least someone on the staff at the school was aware and participating in the action.
Whenever this gets down to the NCAA i would expect NC ST to have to forfeit the victories from Smith's season - which didn't amount to much. Will NCAA hit them with other penalties since a coach is alleged to be involved?
The sham invoices would definitely be a crime.

I loved USC poking at that rule with their football team and texas. Was a good laugh.You only forfeit wins, not losses. So the record would go from 15-17 to 0-17. From a record book standpoint it is like the games with the wins never happened.

They call it vacating wins rather than forfeits. That's why it works that way. Little the NCAA does makes much sense.
Meanwhile, Maryland and Kansas, Adidas and Under Armour, De Sousa:

Except the losing team still has a "L".You only forfeit wins, not losses. So the record would go from 15-17 to 0-17. From a record book standpoint it is like the games with the wins never happened.
Not totally on topic but I just can't look away from the trainwreck that is Memphis Tigers basketball ...
.. first of all, why's this guy always on the radio show? What's he gonna do once his kids flame out of basketball. I mean, they're good but they're not that good.
Why do Memphis people act like that city's bball scene is the end-all/be-all? Again, Memphis HS ball is good but it ain't that good.

Footwear company Skechers sued Adidas in federal court Thursday, claiming its competitor created false advertising and unfair competition by funneling hundreds of thousands of dollars in secret payments to high school and college basketball players and their families to wear its products.
The federal lawsuit, which was filed in U.S. District Court in Los Angeles, alleges that illicit payments made by Adidas and its employees "effectively blocked Skechers and other companies from competing on a level playing field for young, NBA-level endorsers, and unfairly bolstered consumer perception of adidas' overall brand quality and image well beyond the basketball footwear market."
