[QUOTE="MannyBianco, post: 1751522, member: 748896"] Sadly, no. North Carolina presented the unlikely defense that because they let a few non-athletes cheat, too, then cheating wasn’t a benefit just for the basketball team. This cynical and transparent effort to violate the intent, if not the language, of the rule was viewed with favor by an NCAA desperately searching for a way to not punish one of their bluechip cash cows. I believe that, for the same reason, the Kansas investigation is unlikely to result in meaningful sanctions. The blue chip programs ARE the NCAA. There is no line of separation between them. They are essentially policing themselves. They will live or die as one. [/QUOTE]
