At some point, the NCAA is going to run the risk of appearing to rewrite terms and conditions on the fly to suit themselves if they [1] don't let us apply previously docked scholarships toward the overall penalty, [2] if they try to prevent us from taking a recruit like Bryant even if the penalty doesn't kick in next year, and [3] if they don't let us apply the possible 1 or 2 open scholarship vacancies we might have next year, pending transfers, to the overall penalty.

There's following the penalties imposed, and then there's making up new "case law" as you go that stick it to the punished unnecessarily.  If we have a transfer out this spring, and we are over the cap / the penalty defers until 2015-2016, then the NCAA can't summarily declare that we can't fill that vacancy P[I]ROVIDED WE ARE UNDER THE LIMIT THE FOLLOWING YEAR LIKE WE'RE SUPPOSED TO BE[/I].

Otherwise, it turns into a 13 [or 14] scholarship penalty?

Why should they be allowed to situationally determine what teams can do provided they are in compliance with the overall penalties / ruling in order to make the original penalties more impactful?
