They got ahead of this by pre-vacating wins for years.

DePaul actually might be the one school that SHOULD cheat. I mean what are they going to do to them if they get caught?? Slap em with a postseason ban??  :)

That being said, a 3 game suspension and probation is a NOTHING punishment. The NCAA made it point to come out and say "Coaches better be on notice we are coming after them" or something to that effect, like they were going to really flex their muscles after the FBI investigation and lower the boom..and yet..Leitao gets a 3 game suspension and probation. Way to be bad asses NCAA!!

So the "big time program" the NCAA was going to come down with the "hammer" on were NC State and DePaul, hey?

Not much pain inflicted.

The silver lining in the cloud for DePaul, is this  probation may be enough of an embarrassment for the AD to get booted.

One of the three games Leitao will have to miss is in the Gavitt Games at Iowa.

Not a chance.  She's in place until she chooses to retire or step down.

That $5000 fine might bankrupt the basketball program.

Actually, the fine is "A $5,000 fine, plus 1% of the men’s basketball program budget."  So this could total over $6,000, easy.

You actually have a degree from Marquette?

Quote from: muguru
No...and after reading many many psosts from people on this board that do...I have to say I'm MUCH better off, if this is the type of "intelligence" a degree from MU gets you. It sure is on full display I will say that.

If you were a DePaul grad, you did not care about the basketball program when you were there, why would you care now?

I mean seriously, can anyone really believe this program really is a sleeping giant? They are now just a step beyond comatose.

To put this in perspective UNC committed academic fraud and made up fake classes over multiple years and got nothing. DePaul has a prospect live with someone for two weeks to ensure that he does the work needed to become eligible and the coach gets three games.

Moral of the story if you fake an education it is better than actually helping someone do it themselves.

DePaul broke NCAA rules, UNC’s issues were not a violation of NCAA rules nor in the NCAA ‘s jurisdiction.

In addition in their response, UNC cited the fact that Auburn and Michigan had cases of similar misconduct and the NCAA did not act.  Bottom line they were very lazy in the administration of their easy classes. Most schools at least try to gussy things up a bit and make it sound like the kids are actually taking real classes.

If the NCAA slapped DePaul with three years probation, all I can say is Villanova must have done something REALLY, REALLY Bad.

Seriously folks, if the condition of DePaul's men's basketball program wasn't Exhibit "A" in the case of "Get Rid of Jean Lenti-Ponsetto NOW", then the three year's probation should be the smoking gun.

Good God, if you're going to cheat, at least do something that will make you competitive for an NCAA berth.

Hey Hey, Ho Ho, Jean Ponsetto's gotta go!!!!!!
