Message: [QUOTE="auror, post: 3322376, member: 1329"] They don't have a date in here for when the NCAA sent the "we screwed up but he can play anyways" correspondence (I'm not sure if that's the same or a different correspondence to the Oct 31st or May 29th letters, it seems to be different). I'm curious if the NCAA interprets that specific letter differently than Memphis did. The wording could make or break their case. Organizations are allowed to make errors and then correct them, but it would indeed be capricious if they caught their error and then only months later changed their mind on the enforcement. The indefinitely definition part is pretty bogus. Part of the common definition of indefinite is "unlimited amount of time." Penny should have known he was a booster. He's a member of the "Memphis Athletics Ambassador Club" for goodness sake. So when he recruited him to Memphis, he knew he was recruiting a kid that a booster (himself) had paid improper benefits to. Their only case is if the NCAA did accidentally clear him and then indeed told Memphis our bad you can keep him, and then tried later to enforce the punishments. Personally, I'd be surprised if Memphis' position on the 2nd part is as strong as they make it out to be. But who knows, this is the NCAA. [/QUOTE]
