After Gollson and Jerami Grant were both suspended for the same thing and it was or is still going on at this level with this many players involved? That really points to a larger problem that must have been know and at least tacitly allowed by the administrators.

Full allegations/rumors at the moment:

• Involves DB Keivarae Russell, WR DaVaris Daniels, DE Ishaq Williams, and LB Kendall Moore
• Involves a female tutor possibly writing papers for the players in exchange for s e x
• Notre Dame will vacate 2012 season, any other season remains to be seen
• All players are going to be expelled
• Press Release at 3
• Anything other self imposed punishments or players involved is unknown

wait a second... she wrote papers in exchange for s e x? so the players got "paid" twice and didnt have to do anything?

Jeez how many guys was this girl tutor screwing???Oh Lord

One rumor has it at 22 past and present. Plus doing homework too and not just writing papers. So my first hypothesis is that one girls not going to do all that work, impossible. Thus it involves multiple girls. Second hypothesis is these girls aren't going to do all this work plus provide sex...for nothing. Thus, they are getting something. $$$$. But from who???

UNC is garbage. The program is garbage, the coach is garbage, the academic program for players is garbage... the ACC is garbage. Winning the Coastal is like being the tallest midget.

Here's my question: At what point did ND start holding players out of practice? If it was yesterday then that tells you the university is not serious about the investigation. They found out over 2 weeks ago so they should have been held out from practice then. If they waited until yesterday they only began discipline because it was becoming national news.

I think it's not that simple. Compliance knew about it 2 weeks ago. I'm sure they did some due diligence to ensure that the report was true. I have no problem with the time table. Now if they played a few games then that's a different story

To all you Notre Dame apologists , they are as dirty as PSU. On the other hand Syracuse is as clean as the driven snow. We had a twitter release with the wrong uniform and a couple of players get a picture in front of a banner with a local moronic ( I mean that in an endearing way) shock jock and it was covered and exposed as if they were death penalty violations. True Orange fans should feel proud of our athletics and University and know that we are better than these corrupt institutions.

NOTRE DAME, Ind. - University President Rev. John I. Jenkins and Vice President/Director of Athletics Jack Swarbrick served as the faces representing Notre Dame in the announcement of an administrative investigation into suspicions of academic dishonesty by four current Irish football players.

Until a full investigation is completed, KeiVarae Russell, DaVaris Daniels, Ishaq Williams and Kendall Moore will be held out of practice and game competition, a proclamation that came 15 days prior to the first game of the 2014 season.

"Integrity is at the heart of our mission as a university," said Jenkins in his introductory statement. "Academic dishonesty strikes at that heart. Academic misconduct has no place at a university."

Jenkins said there was evidence that the four football players submitted papers and homework that had been written for them by others, which was initially detected at the end of the summer session and referred to the compliance office in athletics on July 29, which then precipitated an immediate investigation by the Office of General Counsel.

Jenkins was quick to point out that the student-athletes have not been declared guilty of wrongdoing.

"Let me emphasize something: At this juncture, no one has been judged responsible for academic dishonesty," Jenkins said. "No one has been dismissed from the university and no sanctions have been imposed or no judgment has been made yet."

Asked if the players had been suspended, Swarbrick said, "No. They remain students at the university, they remain grant-in-aid students, and they continue to have the benefits of being a grant-in-aid student."

Jenkins and Swarbrick also defended Notre Dame head coach Brian Kelly, who was first informed of the situation on Thursday, Aug. 14.

"I want to say right now that I have great confidence in Brian and his staff, and they have been nothing but supportive and helpful in our investigation," Jenkins said.

"There is no evidence that Brian Kelly and his coaches knew about this. The same way with the academic staff. Once an academic staff member had suspicions, it was immediately brought to our attention."

Swarbrick described Kelly's reaction to the news.

"Like all of us, he was devastated," Swarbrick said. "But he was also quick to understand the process and how he and his staff could be of assistance in the process, so that was quickly the focus of the discussion."

Jenkins said there was no timetable for a resolution.

"We'll go as quickly as we can, but our emphasis will be on thoroughness," Jenkins said. "We'll take as long as it takes to have a thorough and fair investigation through our honor code process."

While the University is determined to get to the bottom of the situation and that academic dishonesty will not be tolerated, Swarbrick sees the purported improprieties by the student-athletes as the exception to the rule at Notre Dame.

"For every misstep, we have hundreds of stories of young people coming here and succeeding and taking full advantage of the (Notre Dame) opportunity," Swarbrick said. "So we know it works."

It is easy to be proactive about things that don't matter, like tweets.

There is no division one school that comes close to being clean as driven snow. Notre dame is particularly sanctimonious, so the schadenfreude is particularly appealing. But whatever happened there (and we still don't know what it is) could have happened anywhere, including at Syracuse. Someday it will again be SUs turn in the scandal rodeo; folks will have a much smaller fall if they don't mount too high of a horse.

Yes the chef has executed the schadenfreude quite well , it's the consistency of velvet and dances on my tastebuds.
