I'm just thankful that the NCAA employee assigned to this case can finally take a vacation. Think of all the long nights in the office gathering facts about this. Has to be why it took so long.
Kind of agree with Mad. SU may not have done itself any favors. I picture someone at the NCAA getting wind of SU saying they think "everything looks good". And the super important person that heard this thinking "oh they do, do they? Well, let's sit on this for a few weeks, and then tell them no. That will teach them."
