Can you share what the NCAA told us ?

Roughly, time served, plus a much smaller fine. No failure to monitor charge. I don’t know if vacated wins were part of that or not.

When we self-imposed penalties, we did it in conjunction with the NCAA people working on our case. That’s why we were pissed when they came back and started asking for more.
 
But it was a useful narrative for negative recruiting. Not that it blowing back will harm Smart, Saban, Kelly et al. But a recruit that favors us but listened to that tripe spilling out of Stoops and Beamer’s glory holes will count it against them imo.

It was. Stoops and Beamer are two of the most creative in making stuff up. It tends to net them guys UT didn't prioritize, then they spin it as stealing a prized recruit away from Tennessee.
 
Does anyone know how many of the other penalties besides SCHOLARSHIPS we have already self-imposed?
Source here: Hundreds of violations occurred in Tennessee football program over 3 seasons - NCAA.org.



The numbers arent as bad as they sound if I understanding correctly and we are being credited with all of our previous recruiting penalties.

Tennessee previously self-imposed and is credited with a reduction of seven official visits from the 2021-22 academic year, and the school can be credited for any additional reductions in visits from the 2022-23 academic year if they were imposed in connection with regular-season home games.

Tennessee previously self-imposed and is credited with a six-week reduction in 2021 and two weeks during 2022, and the school can be credited for any additional reductions imposed for regular-season home games during the 2022-23 academic year.

Tennessee self-imposed and is credited with a reduction of 12 days in fall 2021 and eight days in spring 2022, and the school can be credited for any additional reductions it imposed during the 2022-23 academic year.
 
So in the ncaa release it says: “A vacation of all records in which student-athletes competed while ineligible. The university must provide a written report containing the contests impacted to the NCAA media coordination and statistics staff within 14 days of the public release of the decision.”

Does this mean we have to vacate the wins during this time?
Can we vacate the losses too?
 
Missouri fans upset because of what happened to them in the past. Ohio State saying they got it worse for tattoos.

Fans of other schools (ND, Ole Miss, LSU) that have had to vacate wins mostly focusing on how stupid/inconsistent the NCAA is in general.

Alabama:


other Bama fans with blue balls. wanted the worst.

overwhelming majority across all fans/media saying we did the right thing and somehow successfully navigated out of a huge mess.
To hell with Ohoi State and Missouri ,LSU , Mississippi well you get the point 🤨🤨🤨

Thanks. I am sure all those university presidents lobbying for stronger penalties were doing so purely in the sense of justice.

Thanks, Brother.
 
I don't like more scholarship reductions. The rest I can live with. Though given our level of cooperation, it seems steep.

The should offer Pruitt a chance to lessen his show-cause by turning state's evidence on Bama, and possibly Georgia. He knows how that cheating machine works.

Level I Failure to Monitor was a knife in the back. Both sides had been using agreed-upon verbiage-- i.e. "significant" vs. "severe"-- in communication, with clear navigation around anything close to lack of institutional control. Level I means "failure to cooperate" with the NCAA, which all parties agreed from the outset did not apply since UT provided full cooperation top-down.

The NCAA nailed UT with a Level I, upped the proposed fine again and again and kept stockpiling penalties. UT did not want to vacate wins, but wanted to protect postseason and recruiting more.

:) Like the NCAA has any interest whatsoever in exposing violations at Alabama or Georgia.

NCAA just proved once again that cooperating isn't worth it.
