I vehemently disagree. You can strike the season from the records, but we still remember that screwjob that was the 2004 season and USC's national title. And if UK has to vacate, we still remember their dominance. We remember Reggie Bush's Heisman. We remember Ryan Mallett throwing a pick in the last few minutes against Ohio St. in the Sugar Bowl and tOSU finally breaking through against an SEC team. The point I'm making is that we acknowledge the win and follow it up with a statement like, "...but they had to vacate it because of <insert reason here>."

A win is a win, vacated or otherwise, and kids will still want to play for a program that wins.

Seconded. You just cheated to win a bunch of games. It's like a couple of the little league teams I played against that used to spank us. Later we found out that they were playing 14 and 15 year olds in a 12 year old league (Post 502, I think it was). So what if you won? You cheated. Where is the pride in that?
