Title: "Boise State gets three years' probation" Wow, that's it? Post by: Chechem on September 13, 2011, 03:29:40 PM Quote The Boise State football program will be docked nine scholarships over a three-year period, and the athletic department must serve three years' probation as a result of widespread rules violations, the NCAA announced Tuesday. Boise State had already self-imposed the probationary period in the wake of violations involving more than 75 prospects and student-athletes across five different sports. The NCAA added six scholarship reductions in football to the three the school had already taken away and cited the school for "lack of institutional control." Boise State will now have its football scholarships reduced from 85 to 82 for the 2011-12, 2012-13 and 2013-14 academic years. http://espn.go.com/college-sports/story/_/id/6966240/ncaa-hands-boise-state-broncos-three-years-probation-scholarship-reduction That's all?? These violations would land an SEC school in deep dung. :o Title: Re: "Boise State gets three years' probation" Wow, that's it?

Reminds me of a t-shirt. Went on vacation... Came back on probation... Title: Re: "Boise State gets three years' probation" Wow, that's it?

I see a lot of partiality with the severity of the penalties being handed down now compared to what Bama received, especially with the text book issue. >:(

State, Georgia, Alabama, or Auburn, they would all be toast and looking at at least 21 scholarships being taken. These NCAA guys are spinning in circles out-of-control. ???

This isn't that surprising. They'd better keep their noses clean though cause next time will be worse if they fall under the repeat violator status.
