The academic fraud we were accused of, if I am not mistaken, was regarding ONE student and ONE paper, and not that the paper was even written in its entirety for him, but edited by a tutor, possibly adding as little as one footnote. Furthermore that athlete sat out twice during the season, including the NCAAs.

As far as the $ put in the students' pockets, they actually performed a service for the $, keeping score at basketball games. It is absurd that a scholarship athlete can't earn $ as the rest of the student body can. Yes the student athlete gets room, board, books and certain travel expenses, but I don't believe the dining halls are open 24/7, and athletes need to eat. Plus should be able to do other activities in their free time just like any other student. They tend to come from poor families so can't rely on an allowance from mom and dad.

And yes if SU had provided hookers for several years to lure recruits to sign with us I think 3 years would be the least we could expect as a penalty.
