Institutional control means more than just "dont pay players". They had NONE for a LONG TIME and were punished for itThe overall impression that I'm getting from the CFB guys I follow on twitter, is that they're glad the ban was ended. The thinking is that it was a criminal matter, not an NCAA matter, and should've been treated as such from the beginning. Instead, they (the NCAA) overstepped their grounds.
I'm not sure if I completely agree with that, seeing as it was covered up for the sole reason of benefitting the school/football program, but I can see the point.
Kind of.
