Syracuse wins back one scholarship per year in NCAA appeal, still must vacate wins

not great, better than nothing

 

[DonLightfoot]

Big whoop, but we'll take it.

 

[OttoMets]

Not surprised. Still disappointed about the vacated wins, though.

 

[JarHeadJim]

Thats huge!

Thomas Bryant's mom decides to enroll at SU.

I fart in the NCAA's general general direction.

At some point do they tell us which wins get vacated?

Anyway, we all know how many JB actually has.

 

[HOFCeluck]

Good to hear. Getting scholies back was si much more crucial than getting wins back.

the idea of vacating wins is dumb.

 

[Jake]

Huge news. It's what matters most.

It's the - Coach didn't call Mommy to tell her Junior smoked some weed penalty.

Yeah, it's dumb.

That being said...

It was a stupid, unforced error and it never should have come to this.

 

[PauliePeppas]

So all those losses are vacated too right Ncaa? Clowns...One back is huge

Important to our long term goals for the teams (i.e., win, win, and then win!). Disappointed no walk back of the JB personal bullcrap.

he could still get this year's suspension reduced, they haven't ruled on that appeal yet

 

[Rocco]

It is in fact better than nothing, but it is still absolute bullspit.

You NCAA.

Wins could be returned in the future. it has been done with other programs. The scholarship is much more important. Much more...We can live with this.

 

[Madbiker]

Getting 1 ship back per year is huge. So much more flexibility. Vacating wins is dumb. IMO it's done purely to stick it to JB. I'm guessing JB will get his suspension reduced from 9 games to 6. He wasn't charged with personal wrong doing, just failure to monitor. The biggest in season penalty prior to JB was 5 games and that was for outright lying to investigators and not cooperating.

They wait much longer it will be moot anyways unless they just rescind it.

You mean like when the NCAA on its own decided they were too hard on Penn State?

 

[OrangeOnions]

The scholarship will help and hopefully can be used to get a big next year. Thompson or someone else.

Also getting $1.23 million back because the NCAA miscalculated the fine.

JB may get some wins returned in the future based on his appeal.

Would have been nice to see JB's suspension to be more in line with Larry Brown's.

You mean when the school which shall not be named started making noises about lawsuits?

Let's apply that $1.23 Million to the salaries of our new assistant football coaches.

How do you miscalculate $1.23M?

 

[OttoinGrotto]

Put it towards the football coaching staff.

But seriously, how does the NCAA miscalculate over a million dollars?

 

[orangezen]

Everyone including espn and others and SU and all us fans should ignore NCAA win list and always refer to JBs full win real list
