I understand this sentiment and I know this has been discussed a lot before...

My question is who is the NCAA trying to punish?
School? - Fines punish the school, Post Season Ban = loss of income
Coach? - Suspension and/or fines is punishment... possiblity of Show Clauses etc for Future.... Vacate Wins from Coaching Record.
Current Players? - Why punish the current players at all if it happened prior to them arriving. (I think this is the good part of those 9 games being discounted by the committee.)
Prior Players? - Not much you can do but strip their names from the record books, vacate wins, etc.

The coach who is now coaching a tournament team. All punishments for past actions affect the future participants in the program more than the wrongdoers. It's entirely unavoidable if you intend to ever punish any program.

I agree with bolded statement...

 

I just see the coaches punishment as the loss of income and being suspended for the 9 games... at that point his punishment is up. Nothing further.

 

The Team's resume is/was evaluated based on many factors, 1 of which discounted the games they were not at full strength because of the coach missing...I know the committee says they value the whole body of work the same, but we all are aware that isn't the case, it is 10 individuals educated opinion and those opinions are steered by statistics and facts. Eye Test, how a team finishes the season, effects of missing players/coaches... it all factors in even if the committee denies it....

 

 

They also deny they purposely set up IU/UK  :rtfm:

They judged Wisconsin by their complete body of work. The lack of consistency in their criteria is pathetic.
