Yeah, we turned ourselves in, though. McCarthy went rouge.

I may be wrong, but I am fairly certain that Tressel has one of these following him around now, and it's for more than one year.

The sad thing is that the media (namely ESPN) won't take even a second to look at our proactivity and what we did to rectify the situation...instead, they'll lump us in with those tOSU and Auburn degenerates...

Pisses me off bigtime.

+1

Most of the other schools in the SEC are already on probation. Not really a big selling point.

Semantics, but...techincally we did not get caught cheating. We self-reported a coach that was cheating (i.e. Thanks McCarthy). In my mind there is a differance.

Again, semantics...

That's a good thing. I wouldn't wish NCAA sanctions on any CF fan. Hopefully all that stuff will just get swept under the rug and forgotten about.

Yeh, that's about all that can be said about this one. I like that LSU was willing to be proactive/accountable for the violation(s) before some whistle blower inevitably blew his whistle and the world tumbled down over Tiger Stadium.
