Message: [QUOTE="Chuck, post: 3324519, member: 1646"] To be clear, I'm not arguing that UConn should have been penalized. I'm just saying they trapped us. There was no need for them to show evidence or argue what the penalty should be. It's the legal version of "absolute liability" (no [I]mens rea[/I]). Any time the NCAA has had to present evidence and prove their case, they give in or lose. I'd add to your angst the fact that many other schools failed the APR, but were given a pass because they had "less resources" or something like that. I believe it was primarily for smaller schools and the historically black schools. I don't want to blame those schools, just the NCAA. They literally created an out for schools not named UConn.
