2013 NCAA Football Thread

Yes I been to college

 

But just for the parties, right?

Yes... Also, I think being able to see the future to know he'd be good is an NCAA violation. I'm calling the enforcement staff.


In related news... Oregon SLAMMED by NCAA today. Oh wait, never mind. 1 scholly for 2 years, and no bowl ban.

Hilarious that Chip Kelley was given a show-cause for 18 months. I'm sure he gives a shit, as he sits atop his pile of NFL money.

 

I'm glad we didn't get slammed. But we didn't really do anything against the rules at the time.

Also I don't think 97 went to college at all. His grammar and punctuation shows it.

 

Whew!!! Wiping the sweat off. Now we can get down to business!!

 

Just because I don't write in proper English or grammar on a website doesn't mean I didn't go to college u dumb fuck what an idiot

 

Honestly, and you both know how I stand when it comes to Oregon, can you even call them sanctions? Admitted to 7 "major violations" and you get that?

How can we take the NCAA seriously?

Well at least my wife will be happy

 

Yes, I know your position. But 7 major isn't meaning ohio State major.

I'll be living up in the Seattle area soon. We can all get together and discuss our hatred towards the rest of the pac during college season

 

I know it doesn't. But 1 scholarship loss/2 years and 3 years probation is a joke. Not even a punishment. Oh well.

And the only other hatred is towards UW. We all know that

 

Chip Kelly's reaction to the Oregon sanctions... (via edsbs)

It's gettin' hot in hurrr...

 

from the NCAA

The University of Oregon used a recruiting service provider, who became a representative of the university’s athletics interests, to assist the school with the recruitment of multiple prospective student-athletes, according to findings by the Division I Committee on Infractions.

The representative provided cash and free lodging to a prospect and engaged in impermissible calls and off-campus contacts with football prospects, their families and high school coaches. Additionally, the football program allowed staff members to engage in recruiting activity, which resulted in the football program exceeding coaching limits. Both the former head football coach and the university agreed they failed to monitor the football program.

Penalties in this case, many of which were self-imposed, include a three-year probation period, a ban on the use of recruiting services, a disassociation of the recruiting service provider and a reduction of scholarships and evaluation days. Additionally, the former head football coach received an 18-month show-cause order and the former assistant director of operations received a one-year show-cause order. If these individuals seek employment at an NCAA member school during the show-cause periods, they and the schools wishing to hire them must appear before the Committee on Infractions to determine if the school should be subject to the show-cause procedures.

In May 2008, the representative began assisting the university’s football program in recruiting prospects. Through the relationships he cultivated, the representative gave the football staff valuable information that would not typically be included in the recruiting service’s written reports. The former assistant director of operations was aware of the representative’s involvement in the recruiting of prospects and it was common for him to ask the representative to tell a prospect to contact the football staff. Further, the former assistant director of operations and an assistant football coach sought and obtained the representative’s assistance in facilitating a prospect’s taking of the SAT.

On two occasions, the representative provided a prospect with lodging and training in advance of US Army All-American events. The representative also gave the prospect cash.

After a rule change requiring four reports annually from recruiting/scouting services, the university paid $25,000 for a subscription to the recruiting service but did not receive the necessary reports. The compliance office provided the football staff with rules education about the rule change, but it did not follow up or monitor the staff to ensure the reports were received.

While the former head coach was unaware that the involvement of the representative in the recruiting process, the staff’s recruiting calls and the lack of recruiting service reports all violated NCAA rules.The committee noted that it is the head coach’s responsibility to know NCAA rules and ensure that every coach and staff member complies with those rules. Because of this, the former head coach agreed that he failed to monitor the football program.

Additionally, three noncoaching staff members placed or received approximately 730 recruiting-related phone calls over a four-year period. The staff members stated they were not aware the calls would be considered recruiting telephone calls and claimed they were administrative in nature. The athletics department did not have a rules education session tailored for the football operations staff and did not have a monitoring system in place for the staff’s phone calls.

From 2009 through 2011, the former assistant director of operations engaged in recruiting activities, resulting in the program exceeding the number of allowable coaches. The former assistant director of operations knew and communicated with the representative, asked the representative to have prospects contact the staff and made recruiting-related telephone calls.

The university also agreed that it failed to monitor the football program’s use of a recruiting service, the provision of athletics apparel and telephone calls made by noncoaching staff members with sport-specific responsibilities.

The penalties include:

Public reprimand and censure.
Three years of probation from June 26, 2013 through June 25, 2016.
An 18-month show cause order for the former head coach. The public report contains further details.
A one-year show-cause order for the former assistant director of operations. The public report contains further details.
A reduction of initial football scholarships by one from the maximum allowed (25) during the 2012-13 and 2013-14 academic years (imposed by the university).
A reduction of total football scholarships by one from the maximum allowed (85) during the 2013-14, 2014-15 and 2015-16 academic years (imposed by the university).
A reduction of official paid football visits to from 56 to 37 for the 2012-13, 2013-14 and 2014-15 academic years.
A reduction of permissible football evaluation days from 42 to 36 in the fall of 2013, 2014 and 2015 and permissible football evaluation days from 168 to 144 in the spring of 2014, 2015 and 2016.
A ban on the subscription to recruiting services during the probation period.
A disassociation of the recruiting service provider. Details of the disassociation are included in the public report (imposed by the university).

My wrist hurts from the slap

 

I didn't even feel it.

 

Sunburn. I'm currently in Kansas at 100 degrees.... Not the nw yet.

 

Yes....agreed! I'm still waiting to see you guys play Bama.....seems like every year some BS happens & the game doesn't materialize.

 

Yeah man!!! I (we) here in Oregon would all love to see us play all the big teams. Win or lose it's the challenge we need and want.

Hopefully someday that shit will happen.

 

I want to see you guys play 'em for the NC.....but with Chip gone now....

 

Our head coach is the creator of our offense. He can coach like a mofo too. He's got the discipline like coach Kelly and our team still runs and does drills like kelly taught em.

Ought to be a interesting season. I'm stoked and nervous all at the same...damn....time!!!

 

I wish you guys the best this season.....outside of the SEC, the Ducks are the only team I kind of pull for. I wanted to see you guys play Bama last year & ND snuck in for the ass whoopin...WTF?! I still think Oregon would've played them better.
