really not that bad considering the athletic department set up those jobs for them. really stoops et all should have known what was going on. no postseason and only a lousy 2 scholorships. As a fan I could care less what they do to records from 2 years ago unless I win the NC.

Had that been JPW working at Tuscaloosa Chevrolet, the NCAA would have made us tear down Bryant Denny Stadium.

Meaningless violations resulting in meaningless penalties. The 'AA finally got one right.

We had to forfeit our wins in the '93 season because Antonio Langham signed a cocktail napkin. A FREAKING COCKTAIL NAPKIN!!

Actually they're not forfeiting anything. They're vacating the 05 season. If from what I've read is correct, they lose the wins, but keep the same amount of losses.

05 should become an 0-4 season.

The article referenced here had the record with eight less wins and four more losses (from 86-19 to 78-27). However, the article now on ESPN's frontpage has Stoops with 8 less wins, but the same number of losses (from 86-19 to 78-19). If they are forfeiting, then I would say that the record would be 78-27. If they are vacating, then I would think it would be 78-15. Otherwise, they only vacate their wins but keep their losses - which is weird.

If they vacate their wins but not their losses - does that mean if you lost to Oklahoma, you get to take one loss off your loss column (but not add anything to your wins). And, if you beat them, then you keep your win? I guess the math would work out if they did it that way. It is just weird because they really aren't vacating the whole season if you keep the losses.

Edit: The articles are one in the same. ESPN has gone in and edited their original article to reflect a record of 78-19 instead of 78-27 like they had before. The question is...what happens to the 4 losses? Do they stay as losses?
