When all is said and done i'm not sure NCST is going to get hit with much, but I think Gottfried an Early are likely to both get multi-year show cause penalties.

It was always a dumb hire by CS-Northridge.

I will believe it when I see it. Auburn’s athletic department has enough money, boosters, lawyers, and friends in high places that they can fight this for a long time.

Pompous AUB Windbags: "We at Auburn will fight tooth and nail! We will take this to the highest court in the land!"

Meek NCAA investigator guy: "Ya know ... there're some oddities on the football side of things too. Maybe we should look into ..."

Windbags: "Oh uh, nevermind all that. So you need us to give you Pearl to make this all go away? Done. Where do I sign up?"

Pearl has been eating our lunch with the local recruits. I'm OK with Auburn getting the death penalty.

If you can't beat a school in 'crootin, you can h0pe they get wacked by the NCAA...ahem...

When coaches get "show cause penalties" , why don't they have to pay back the salaries from the time period when they were caught cheating?

Because the coaches are paid through the school not the NCAA I would assume.

The NCAA lost badly in court when they tried to limit assistant coach's salaries. That was simply trying to set a limit for schools to implement in their contract discussions with assistants. Trying to reach back and grab salary that has already been paid to a coach as some sort of a fine is legally pretty humorous. They have no provision in any contract between schools and employees to allow it nor do they have anything in any bylaw or other rule/regulation inside the NCAA to fall back on. This would be easy money for any any coach and lawyer to get from the NCAA if they went this route - which they aren't.

Can these writers ask what the NCAA is planning to do with teams that have admitted to recruiting violations in a federal court (i.e. LSU, Auburn, UNC, etc)? Why even have an NCAA at this point?

They don't give status updates. It is a purposely bureaucratic institution that is designed to operate with specific, slow processes. The schools set it up that way on purpose.
