This is an OMG moment and Reality Ck.
UT handed over all the evidence where other schools shut them down. We in essence handed them a case that in reality did the investigation for them and served it on a platter.
What's more, is that we imposed our own punishment, took corrective action and implemented it.
Again, served it on a silver platter to the NCAA.
The actions we took were good enough for most schools but because the NCAA didn't have to argue their case and spend $$$,
they maybe deciding to up the punishment to show that they can grow a tooth.
We gave them the information in Good Faith and they may well use it against us by stating it was not enough. At this point the AD may have to argue this in Court.
IMO, the NCAA wants to show that they have teeth, as this was an easy no/minimum cost investigation and they will use it against us to try to grow a tooth.
With NIL being on the board at present day, it would be hard to prove that Tennessee did not take enough Corrective Actions to warrant a gross infringement of the rules. Second, no bowl banned because it will cost them money in the long run.
Why did they let Kansas off the hook and when it came out to the open they won a NCAAM Championship. What's more, Self issued a lifetime contract.
We need to fight it now and recover the ground that we deserve vs laying down and taking it.
