UMass ... U Naughty

Vacating wins for stuff like this is the lamest penalty ever. You vacate wins for cheating, not for giving kids some extra dough that had nothing to do with them attending the school, staying at the school, or playing the game.
 
All I have to say is thank goodness the NCAA is rooting out the truly dirty deeds that are being engaged in by the really dirty programs.

"The circumstances surrounding the impermissible financial aid are unique in that they occurred when student-athletes moved off-campus after the start of the semester and UMass did not readjust their financial aid. The student-athletes fell into two categories: (1) student-athletes who continued to receive a telecom fee associated with dorm phones after they moved off-campus and (2) student-athletes whose on-campus housing was more expensive than their off-campus housing. Eight student-athletes received the impermissible telecom fee. Four student-athletes received the impermissible higher housing rate. One student-athlete received both. In total, UMass provided a little over $9,100 in impermissible aid to the 12 student-athletes." [an average of $758 per student athlete]

"Further, although UMass' financial aid monitoring process did not detect the financial aid overages for 12 student-athletes over a three-year period, UMass financial aid distribution and monitoring processes properly awarded aid 98 percent of the time during the relevant time period. Although there is not a percentage threshold attached to when a failure to monitor is demonstrated and when one is not, basedon the totality of circumstances of this case, UMass did not fail to monitor. "



Let me guess, another program that self reported.

When are they going to start penalizing the programs that are actually cheating...you know intentionally funneling real money to their athletes? Instead they continue to spend lots of time and money on penny ante B.S.??
