[QUOTE="BonafideJacket, post: 634976, member: 1011"] The more I read and think about this, the less sense it makes. Everyone knows the Ron Bell shenanigans and the NCAA has acknowledged he was a rogue actor. Summary of the DLab events from the NCAA decision: [LIST] [*]DLab and Justin Moore take Wendall Carter to former GT player's (presumably JJack) house to look at his shoe collection. [*]DLab takes Moore and Carter to strip club where Jack supposedly gives them each $300 which was all spent at the club (DLab says Jack dropped the money himself). [*]DLab takes Moore and Carter to another NBA player's lounge, where they did not interact with anyone notable, but did dine and dash without paying. [*]DLab tells Moore not to tell anyone about what happened. [*]One year later, NCAA starts sniffing around, presumably via Carter snitching. They interview Moore who is honest and upfront. [*]Moore tries to contact DLab but can't reach him so he goes to to Marvin Lewis, who told him not to contact DLab. [*]DLab has his interview with NCAA, where he denies everything. DLab immediately tries to contact Moore, who reaches out to Marvin instead. Marvin tells him to avoid DLab, then pulls him out of practice when DLab tried to talk to him about changing his story. [*]The next day, DLab calls the NCAA to fess up. GT puts him on leave the same day and he eventually resigns. [/LIST] So the only bad actor here is DLab who fessed up after one day. And GT promptly suspended him. Moreover, the NCAA acknowledges "Georgia Tech's cooperation in all parts of this case and determines it was consistent with [its] obligation" and "specifically commends the institution for taking swift action once the head coach learned that the booster he welcomed into his program may have committed violations." There is nothing else that GT could have done, they self-reported as soon they learned anything, suspended and eventually cut ties with the bad actor, and cooperated fully with the NCAA, yet are hit with this ridiculous penalty. As much as it pains and embarrasses me, the only logical explanation is the fact that GT is a significant repeat offender. The NCAA decision places significant weight on the fact this is GT's third major violation in the past eight years, all of which implicated the basketball program to some extent. [/QUOTE]
