Message: [QUOTE="sutomcat, post: 1919236, member: 27"] It is ridiculous. I could at least understand somewhat if the reason the wins were taken away was because of drug policy violations. Players routinely get small benefits that they shouldn't have gotten. When the school finds out, the benefit is returned, the school self reports and the NCAA forgives them. Or at worst gives them a minor penalty (perhaps a player is suspended for a game). For some reason, the NCAA decided to really hammer the head coach for Syracuse and abandoned decades of precedents to punish him on a personal level. You just can't do that when you are supposed to be an impartial, objective body empowered to review the behavior of member institutions. The wins will be reinstated. The NCAA will be humiliated. Another nail in the coffin of an organization that failed and needs to be rebuilt or replaced. [/QUOTE]
