It was so obvious they were paying big money when the nations top recruits started signing with ole miss. They didn’t care, they knew the ncaa wouldn’t do anything.

“Nothing changed at first. Ole Miss built on their 2013 signing coup and began to eke into the national conversation with a six-point upset over Alabama in 2014. That year, the Rebels fell short of winning the SEC West title but ended up with a New Year’s bowl game appearance.”

That beat down was glorious to behold. Epic.

I don't know how much $ they paid, but after watching the Peachfuzz Bowl, I'd say they didn't get their money's worth.

Peach Bowl. Heh...
But, the portrayal of the NCAA in this is appalling. Considering that this is a "new and improved" NCAA, re-tooled after the Miami and Scam Newton fiascos, they haven't improved a damned bit. Probably gotten worse, if anything. Their enforcement of "rules" has always been selective, and they would (as shown) rather make a splashy public example of somebody than actually doing the boring work of enforcing the core aspect of their mission. Rather than reforming the NCAA, we'd be better served to tear it all down and salt the earth...

All that money and Bo Wallace was their QB. His raw QBR in that game was 0.9
Wallace is also a drunk driver:

I wasn't aware anyone thought the NCAA was "new and improved". Penn State, Miami, and USC showed that the NCAA is ultimately toothless and really doesn't have much of the authority, and it seems more likely the NCAA needs the big FBS programs than vice versa.

I just want to start paying baseball recruits...if the NCAA doesn’t care about football they surely can’t find time to trouble themselves with baseball

Oh well, our QB is just a drunk. But, he could throw that pigskin like it was his girl friend.

The author of the piece linked above referred to it that way somewhere in there.
As to them being toothless, well, no. They aren't. But, it is clear that there are certain hands they will not bite...

Let me rephrase: They are toothless to any major program large / rich enough to fight them. And if they push too hard, they might end up without their biggest moneymakers.

The NCAA has and will be worthless as an enforcer ever since there was talk of the P5 conferences pulling out of the NCAA and starting their own league. Sure, you'll get a slap if you're not a marquee team and your sins are egregious, but that's just for public appearances.
