Yikes! NCAA penalty on our swimming program!

[Brog]

Looks like we got off light with a problem most of us sure didn't know about, though many of you did, I'm sure. Looks like no Swimming championship next year.

20k over 4 years in overpaying for people not clocking out. That literally doesn’t even get into the conversation for top football or basketball recruits

 

[froginmn]

Now we know what Mucks column tomorrow will be about...

 

[Despite the odds Frog]

Says football and basketball players too???

 

[Wog68]

I'm hoping that our championship rifle program was not involved.

 

[Moose Stuff]

Non story basically .

 

[BrewingFrog]

Wow. They're really on the ball!

Meanwhile, Rape U. goes unpunished...

 

[Boomhauer]

Do we have to vacate our cheez-it bowl win?

 

[MadFrog]

What does being on probation for a year mean? No football bowls? No basketball post season? What does it mean?

 

[hometown frog]

20k across 4 years and 33 student athletes. Are we literally talking 400-500 a kid a year? Another reason why the ncaa is a lost cause entity. They address situations like this but won’t stand up for 30+ years of sexual molestations or for hundreds of thousands of dollars being given to dads of star players.

Says football and basketball players too???

OP is pretty misleading... There were two separate issues the NCAA was addressing:

(1) Overpayment of members of the football, men's basketball, and women's basketball teams for on-campus jobs, when they didn't clock-out correctly.

(2) Former swim coach Sam Busch violating rules related to impermissible coaching activities (exceeding NCAA limit of 6 coaches), and countable athletically related activities (exceeding NCAA limits on practice hours basically).

It appears the sanctions are imposed against the athletic department as a whole, not any specific program. And there is a show cause against former swim coach Sam Busch, who was dismissed around the time this was investigated.

Can anyone clarify?

 

[BedfordFrog68]

Wacker self-reported and the NCAA set the program back 15 years....

 

[berryfrog95]

Did Baylor get hit with anything yet from the NCAA?
I’ll hang up and listen....

Which program generates more $$ -- Baylol football or TCU swimming?

It's what they call a "bid'ness decision." Does anyone really expect ncaa to do anything drastic that will significantly impact a ca$h cow, unless they absolutely positively hafta?
