NCAA Ruling - Postseason Ban, Among Other Bogus Things...

[Deleted member 2897]

GT’s getting 20 to life for jaywalking. We might as well just go ahead & commit a real crime. Set up fake classes, buy them some boats & hoes, get them a nice ride, etc.

One of Clemson’s coaches was caught explaining how they pay athletes, so he was fired. Nothing from the NCAA. Clemson reported 13 violations this summer. No comment from the NCAA.

This comes to mind:

So any word on if admin is going to go through with the appeal or not? How many days do we have left to do so at this point?

Just read on the AJC that “the NCAA infractions committee recommended that players be permitted to transfer and compete immediately at new schools because of the postseason ban” (on Georgia Tech). So they didn’t just issue infractions, they pre-judged any possible transfer requests and encouraged our players to leave?

**** You NCAA. Kiss My ***.

I think that’s an automatic recommendation with a postseason ban.

This.

And I think the Appeals process will reveal some things about GT’s new Prez. Does he support the entire school or is he basically anti GT athletics.

It's worth noting that Cabrera was president of George Mason when they hired Paul Hewitt from us.

Cabrera was not the president of George Mason when Hewitt was hired there. He became president in 2012.

Does that make it not worth noting then?

What truly would have been worth noting was if George Mason had actually hired him away from us we wouldn't have had to pay him all of those years after he was gone.

Are we still paying him?

Nope. We finished paying him off last spring. I opened a bottle of scotch I’d been saving, to celebrate that day.

For what it's worth, Swofford is on our side --- https://www.ajc.com/sports/college/...a-tech-postseason-ban/RZGSktsoJF1U1REgoQII4M/

 

[Bogey]

That would seem to help an appeal.

Yes, I liked the fact that he said what he did, though he left some wiggle room by saying “But I’m also not inside the case with the (infractions) committee.” I suppose in his position he can’t (or won’t) just say the NCAA was wrong.

I suppose in his (Swafford's) position he can't or won't say the NCAA is wrong since neither UNC or Duke basketball are involved.

Not a fan of Gurley but do like his shirt.

I don’t know how to attach things, but AJC has an interesting article on the appeal. Supposedly, we had to appeal by yesterday, and we did. The chance of making the postseason (If we are good enough) is high this year because all penalties are “stayed” until the appeal process is final. According to the article, the average time for this to resolve is eight months. That takes us into June. Who knows? They may expedite the process because we are GT. We also appealed the visitation penalty and reduced scholarship penalty as well. The problem with all of this is that it could only delay the inevitable by one year.

I actually don't want the decision delayed. Much as I would like to see us dance, I don't want to simply delay a ban and have to recruit next year with it still hanging over our heads. We only have 1 slot left as opposed to 5 next year.

I wonder if we can withdraw our appeal late in the season if it becomes clear we won’t make the tourney. That is the kind of UNC level stuff we need to be doing!

I get that but i'd take dancing now. Our chances won't be as good after Banks graduates.
