[QUOTE="Calvin, post: 1318697, member: 4069"] Justice is served! .....somewhere in another reality? Anyway, I don't expect these cases to ever punish the wrong-doers. The 2 year post-season ban already served was a bit lame, and the reluctance to hit Pitino with anything more than a 5 game ban also seems pretty lame. Makes me wonder who's paying McGee to keep his mouth shut, although I suppose that's the only course that makes sense. If they ever start hitting the coaches as hard as the institutions, it would change the landscape of college bball. Vacating the title seems unlikely. I assume Louisville will claim that the players involved were not part of the title run. The remaining punishments seem pretty watered down, except the 4 years probation. They do seem to be hitting them a little in the pocket book with the penalty to return some revenue sharing money. Overall, the boosters wanted to keep Pitino, which they did. Championship I'm guessing will be safe. Nothing to see here, move along. [/QUOTE]
