Kolek planning to go pro
Exactly. Which is why he has incentive to not give the full story.
They obviously don’t care since they keep hiring his former assistants
USC has a long history of not caring when it comes to NCAA stuff, and more than likely that hasn't helped them when they do get in trouble. Last I checked they have been placed on major probation 7 times, only 5 schools had more in NCAA history. They do what they do.
It hasn't exactly hurt them either.Placed on probation in 2010 ... Finished ranked in the top 10 the next year (but couldn't go to a bowl)Placed on probation in 2001 ... Finished ranked in the Top 5 every year between 2002 and 2008, including two national titles.Placed on probation in 1986 ... Won the Pac 10 from 1987-89; finished ranked top 10 in '88 and '89.Placed on probation in 1982 ... Suffered a losing season and were back in the Rose Bowl and top 10 in 1984.Cheating pays.
I'm also not sure SMU would agree with you on if cheating pays. Isn't a universal outcome as we all can find examples of schools that recovered...eventually...and schools that still haven't gotten back to the zenith days of when they did cheat.
It can pay, short term and even long term if you believe every conspiracy theorist that Duke or others do nothing but cheat....of course USC has been in the wilderness since the last cheating cycle based on their heights when they were cheating and where they are now (please don't start with being ranked 21st and winning 8 games is the same as being ranked top 3 nearly every year while cheating - no comparison and fraudulent argument). I'm also not sure SMU would agree with you on if cheating pays. Isn't a universal outcome as we all can find examples of schools that recovered...eventually...and schools that still haven't gotten back to the zenith days of when they did cheat.
I’m not really sure that the death penalty is entirely to blame for SMU football’s problems either.
When the SWC broke up in 1995, that did not help.
Entirely...no....the overwhelming majority...yes. Some great documentaries on the subject. The financial impact, their inability to attract the right coaches and players, conference situation, the school needing to cleanse itself and decisions of prioritization, etc.SMU decided properly they were a university first, not a football team first after this. Something many other schools and fans should remember
So they sucked for a long time, then cheated and got really good. Then they got caught and decided not to cheat anymore and have sucked (again) ever since. And the moral of the story is...?
my mistake
Supposed to be on the Badgers board and logs in on Marquette board....yes, that is definitely a mistake. LOL
And when you made the same false speculation (you lied) on the Al board, and i challenged you to find these Badger boards, your response was "No thanks".
Mike Leach will leave Washington State for Mississippi State HC job.
