re: McNeese State closing in on hiring Will Wade for coaching job: Source per: The Athletic

Schools have been hammered for violations long after the coaches or players had left the program.

They replaced Emmert, and I’m pretty sure one of the 1st things the new President said was they were gonna try to go away from really penalizing people who had nothing to do with violations. Now, Woodward didn’t know that when he fired Wade (I don’t think) and we’ll still see how it winds up playing out, but Wade being gone could mitigate the severity of the penalties. Not that we’ll know unless they come out and actually state that in the ruling.
