After the way Ishaq has played the last 3 years (when he actually played) I felt a lot better about him not coming here. I think I feel that much better now. WOW!

**waits for Ishaq's father to spin this**

I don't care what college, academic fraud is unacceptable. The fact that Notre Dame's pompous fan base and Brian Kelly's ego have to deal with this feels like justice somehow.

That being said, I feel like there should be a minor league for tremendous athletes who just aren't students.

If this is true and it does look like it, as an ND fan, I am certainly not proud of what the players did, but I am proud of how the school is responding as it did with Golson and Grant last year. There is a minor league for athletes who are not students, the problem is only a few schools care about this and do anything about it.

Athletes from other sports may be involved as well. Non-athlete students too. All allegedly getting expelled or suspended from school.

A university employee came forward and confessed to helping them cheat. All players interviewed today.

ND Honor Code violation. All allegedly getting expelled or suspended from school, including non-athletes.

Internal ND investigation and discipline. Next men in. Academic fraud not tolerated.

Can't wait to hear Holtz thspin this.

Maybe Rutgers will be kind enough to loan ND their dumpster fire for a while?couchburn

Williams brand is really going to take off now!!

 

[sabach]

If true, which it seems it is, I remain leery that ND is being all righteous. Don't trust them at all and they are as shady as anyone. Wouldn't be surprised if someone at the school knew about this and it was one of those wink wink things and now they are throwing the kids under the bus to save themselves from scrutiny.

I think Notre Dame and Syracuse are not as shady as everyone else when it comes to stuff like this.

that must be one homely female tutor to have to write papers for guys in order to get them to have s e x with you

sad to see Ishaq screw this whole thing up so badly Oh Lord

LOL I thought the same thing. She has to WRITE the papers and gets s e x in return? what?

Was thinking the same thing, cause if she {presumedly} was decent looking young lady she would have to be a lousy negotiator. Talk about a win - win for the players...

But why come forward?

Notre Dame suspensions: Former Syracuse target Ishaq Williams among four players dismissed (PS: Axe)

 

[Madbiker]

So that means all these guys being expelled will be back on the team next year, right? That's the ND way.

How is it comparable to UNC when ND has already done more than UNC did?

 

[iommi]

Latest rumor is the 4 players will only get one game suspensions. Obviously this is a very fluid situation so who knows what will happen. One game would be LOL ridiculous.

Irish defense looks in tatters right now. 5 of front 7 was already gone and Diaco to UConn. Now lose top DE and CB. Oof.

Scale of the fraud... not the response.

Could you please not conflate The Orange and The Green. I'm still livid from them robbing Don MacPherson's Heisman. As well as Jim Brown's.

Sorry. I just think that SU and ND play under a different set of rules than other schools.
