The U gets the dreaded "lack of institutional control"

Even tho I should be be basking in this as a Nole fan honestly I can't. This some Salem Witch trials BS they doing to those boys in Coral Gables

CORAL GABLES, Fla. -- Miami finally received its notice of allegations from the NCAA, which accused the school of having a "lack of institutional control" for not monitoring the conduct of a booster who provided thousands of dollars in cash, gifts and other items to football and men's basketball players.

The allegations arrived on Tuesday. The institutional-control charge is typically one of the most severe the NCAA can bring after an investigation of rules violations.

The NCAA declined comment Tuesday night, a day after revealing that it was erasing some elements of its case against Miami because the information was obtained in impermissible ways.

Miami should take them to court.

was expected, im not sure what they had in mind for future punishments but Shalala is not going to give them much.

the most damning things in the report is tesitmony from a convicted felon, they cant even use it. the NCAA had to fire their own VP over this shyt it was done so poorly

Miami should take them to court.

thats what will happen if they dont take Miami's offer of standing on the self-imposed bowl bans. Shalala wants no further punishment

I'm all for anarchy so I hope this speeds up the process of the top teams saying fukk the ncaa and forming the super conferences with no ncaa oversight

good because there is no way this stands after the improper NCAA conduct came out. shyt would have been thrown into the bushes in any other place of law.

NCAA is trying to go back to its usual GOON TACTICS, but the fatal flaw is, THEY fukkED UP...


they oughta let Miami go with the self imposed sanctions and call it a truce, but they wanna get GREEDY and try and shut this program down. That is where they're gonna make their mistake. This case looks HORRIBLE now, you take a CONVICTED FELON'S (who's crime is LYING to people and stealing their money (sound familiar NCAA?)) word AND try to PAY HIM to talk? Maybe the NCAA is that stupid but don't they see that outside of their little "castle" EVERYONE else is looking at THEM because THEY are the bad guys?

You wanna punish a school for dealing with a very shady individual, but you tripping and falling all over the dumb mistakes YOU'VE ALREADY committed trying to convict another school for doing something wrong...let's not even get into what happened at UNC, the NCAA want that to quietly go away

PROBE BEGINS: NCAA announces external review

Miami president Donna E. Shalala responded to the NCAA's announcement in a statement on Monday, requesting a "swift resolution" that includes no additional punitive measures beyond those already self-imposed.

The school has taken the football team out of bowl consideration the past two years. (It also would've qualified for the 2012 Atlantic Coast Conference title game if the school hadn't imposed its own ban.) Miami also has said it has self-imposed reductions in practices and scholarships.

Shalala went on to say the NCAA "has not lived up to their own core principles" and expressed disappointment in the NCAA's "unprofessional and unethical behavior."

Shalala's full statement read:

"The University takes full responsibility for the conduct of its employees and student-athletes. Where the evidence of NCAA violations has been substantiated, we have self-imposed appropriate sanctions, including unilaterally eliminating once-in-a-lifetime opportunities for our students and coaches over the past two years, and disciplining and withholding players from competition.
"We believe strongly in the principles and values of fairness and due process. However, we have been wronged in this investigation. ... In September 2010—two and a half years ago—the University of Miami advised the NCAA of allegations made by a convicted felon against former players and, at that time, we pledged our full cooperation with any investigation into the matter. One year later, in August 2011, when the NCAA's investigation into alleged rules violations was made public, I pledged we would 'vigorously pursue the truth, wherever that path may lead' and insisted upon 'complete, honest, and transparent cooperation with the NCAA from our staff and students.'
"The lengthy and already flawed investigation has demonstrated a disappointing pattern of unprofessional and unethical behavior. By the NCAA leadership's own admission, the University of Miami has suffered from inappropriate practices by NCAA staff. There have also been damaging leaks to the media of unproven charges. Regardless of where blame lies internally with the NCAA, even one individual, one act, one instance of malfeasance both taints the entire process and breaches the public's trust.
"There must be a strong sense of urgency to bring this to closure. Our dedicated staff and coaches, our outstanding student-athletes, and our supporters deserve nothing less."

Donna Hard yesterday... But I can't get over her drooling over that check Nevin gave her


*Edit- even Shaprio's lawyer the same person the NCAA paid to obtain the illegal info is

@ByTimReynolds Maria Elena Perez, Shapiro's attorney, not pleased tonight. In text to AP, she calls the NCAA "an incompetent regulatory institution."
