Three problems that I see are (I'm sure there are many more): 1. The NCAA rules are such that the schools can manipulate them without consequence - the UNC case being an example. 2. Self reporting schools get punished while schools willing to fight the NCAA get away with infractions in many cases. UConn and Notre Dame vs UNC would be an example of this. 3. In cases like Baylor and MSU it is possible that no NCAA infractions occurred. Although it would appear there are some legal issues those, in all likelihood, will have no effect on the athletics themselves - outside of some admins being prosecuted and/or fired. As for punishments I would make two proposals. The first is that the coach of a team at the time of an infraction be punished no matter what school they are at. It always amazed me that schools that Calipari was at got sanctioned but he did not. Sure it would hurt the current school of the coach but if you do not punish the coach why would he/she stop cheating. Punishments for a coach could range from a few games suspension to a total banishment from college athletics. I would also like to see a stop to self-inposed punishment. This has been a vehicle that both Syracuse and UNC took advantage of. Although it sounds foolish I think the vacation of wins from a coach but not a school is something to consider. These coaches take personal records very seriously and I feel it would have an affect to some extent. DefenseBB your are correct I should not have said the NCAA is the most corrupt organization in sports. There are many corrupt organizations in sports and which is the most corrupt Probably changes regularly. [/QUOTE]
