This time we handed them the cattleprod before we bent over.

They could take pity on us. I'm going with that, even though I know there's more to find. Kicking us when we're so down would be unsporting.
Or they could realize it is in the interest of encouraging greater compliance among its members to show leniency when a school takes the steps we did. If you give a near death penalty to a University that did it all it could once it learned of the violations, you will have more schools covering up, failing to report, etc. I have to believe the Glazier Firm that has been advising them from early on took all these factors into account.

Have to say, the fact the team sucked and the record was 3-7 last year, and had bad losses even the year before the Ga state and BYU, makes all this easier to take. not like we had a great team and were close to winning championships. We had a rebuild in front of us regardless. Just get the HC hire right and start the build back.
 
Name the last time we haven‘t sucked. The guy is a football coach who has won everywhere he’s ever been, with less.
Literally every coach in the conference is hoping we hire him. If he is such a hot name why did Auburn not push hard? S Car? Vandy? He wasn't even on 2 of those boards if I remember correctly.
 
I'm sick of the type of crap Dennis Dodd keeps putting out there. The worst that Tennessee should be in any given year is 7-5. We can stay in that place for an extended period of time, but the worst we should be is 7-5.

Losses:
Florida
Georgia
Alabama
a rotating West opponent who happens to be good that year
a P5 OOC opponent who happens to be good that year

Wins:
OOC creampuff #1
OOC creampuff #2
OOC creampuff #3
Vandy
Kentucky
South Carolina
Mizzou

Where am I going wrong here? Even the harshest critics of our fanbase and program I think couldn't disagree with that. Would any of them actually suggest that over a long period of time, it makes sense for us to have losing records to schools like Vandy, South Carolina, and Mizzou?
Agreed, but we haven’t been there in a long time.

According to ESPN the NCAA started the investigation of USC in April of 2006 and it lasted for 4 years. I don't see anything about USC conducting its own investigation first and turning it over voluntarily to the NCAA.

It's a summary disposition. You can look it up on the NCAA website. They started doing these recently when all parties are in agreement that infractions occurred that warrant the investigation. The NCAA verifies the facts the university's legal team provides, then rules on the self imposed sanctions. There are more and more these being done because the NCAA does not have the staff to investigate all of the cases in reasonable periods of time that do not cause long term damage to the institutions and that they want to a void death penalties if at all possible.
