No it isn't much of a revelation per se, but what it will do is force the NCAA to clean themselves up on top of the individual programs. Those are some big time players within the NCAA bubble, and anything short of major sanctions will be unacceptable to some really important people.
The NCAA, quite simply, is shameful in their decision making depending on who is committing the infractions. The whole Ohio State players can play a bowl game but have to be suspended this year, the Cam Newton absolute scandal that they wont talk about, dropping 2 years on USC for a player accepting money in comparison....etc etc.
This will bring heat on them as an orginization and if they don't respond in a satisfactory manner, they will be hearing from a much higher power whom they really wish to avoid at this point.
More stuff to come no doubt and UT may be one of them.
