So, should we withdraw the appeal on post season ban?

[QUOTE="YlJacket, post: 697313, member: 2784"] I will defend the NCAA just a bit here - that guy who paid the expenses was already a significant Memphis booster with deep ties to the program regardless of whether he became coach or not. It is exactly the type of under the table inducements most folks shake their heads at. Beyond that Penny was already angling for the coaching job at Memphis and this was arguably part of getting ready for that. Telling the player to donate the sum spent on him to a charity and then he becomes eligible seems reasonably light for doing something he knows is against NCAA rules. Guys at that level know the rules - he is not some rube who hasn't been told exactly what he can do and can't do. It was a choice. Now on the other side, the NCAA is a PR nightmare and many of their decisions are bazaar. So don't take this as blanket support for them. [/QUOTE]
