Also...just to add to the USC thing...taking away 20 scholarships is a colossal mistake. Not because it punishes the USC program, because it does and they committed the infractions, but because it takes away from 20 kids attending a pretty good post seconday school and depriving those 20 kids of an education.
The argument is always, "well those 20 kids will just go elsewhere if they are good enough to play at USC"...which is true. However, no matter how it is sliced, those schools that pick up those kids use one of their own scholarships to add them, thereby losing one of those spots they would have used on someone else. Its 20 people that would have had an education they couldnt afford from whatever school it may be.
