University 6 looking at the death penalty
- Thread starter UKErik

Death penalty is the only way to go. Disagree with you Bob.. Their violations are egregious and they occur one right after another and while on probation.
I very much suspect that when Louisville is arguing to the NCAA that it shouldn't receive the death penalty, the focus will not be athletics. You'll have the mayor and other civic leaders saying our arena is already in bad trouble, if you cancel the next season or two, the arena will go bankrupt and downtown Louisville will be crippled and may never recover.
I know we're all UK fans, but honestly:
1) they should shut down their program for one year
2) Fire Pitino and Jurich
3) Banner and Final four banner gone (that'll happen)
4) three years banned from the NCAA tournament once their one year is up
5) limit scholarships to ten per season during this time.
This is what should happen

Rick said he shocked at this news and those responsible will be held accountable. His next call was to his attorney to tell their annuity guy that he has 2 more former coaches to be put on the dole for their silence like McGee .
I propose that it's the NCAA that needs the death penalty.... Outlived their purpose perhaps... Or as corrupted as the schools they are tasked to oversee.....
Exactly!i didn't think anything could soften the blow of the florida loss. and then this.
It won't work in this case.
Ignoring an NCAA request for information, or lying to an NCAA investigator = So what? The NCAA can not force anyone to cooperate
Ignoring a Federal subpoena, or lying to an FBI agent = Jail
Paying someone off to not cooperate with the NCAA = Illegal, but difficult for them to prove
Paying someone off to not cooperate with a Federal investigation = Witness tampering = jail, and lots of it.
LOL, JLOAD's turnaround time is impressive.
NCAA will likely have a field Day with UL simply because they disregarded their previous findings and pretty much trashed the NCAA to the media. It’s similar to what SMU did to get it, they committed primary violations once and got caught but basically snubber their nose at the NCAA and committed even more. Good riddance if they do get it. Been a long time coming.
Yep...their concern won't be with the NCAA this time...it's BIG BROTHER and I'm not talking about UK!
If they gone, would be a good time to quit helping them and never play them again when they do get back.
It is probably significant that UL did not appeal its probation. They only appealed the vacated title and financial penalties. They were on probation when this occurred, as the one guy in the indictment admitted.
One thing that can't be understated is this a FBI criminal investigation. The ole take one for my head coach code of silence routine just went out the door. These smucks are looking at serious jail time. There are going to be a whole lot of canaries ready to sing.
They may not be now, but if they don't cooperate with the FBI, they will be. The only legal option they would have is to plead the 5th Amendment.
Our series in any sport has never been a win for Kentucky. We should win every time.
Why would the NCAA care about those arguments? That's the city of Louisville's problem, not theirs.
You don't think all those other sports programs are getting good for no reason do you?
6) Shut down baseball
7) Shut down football
8) Shut down dorm and party gun shots
10) Shut down brothel hours to a minimum except on holidays
11) Shut down women's basketball
12) Shut down discrimination law suits
13) Shut down corrupt fraudulent foundation
Don't agree. That's the way it should be perhaps, but politics will enter into this. The NCAA took a tremendous amount of criticism for the way it handled the Penn State situation, and that's just one example. I think the NCAA is sensitive to criticism these days - so in the end it will just be a matter of which way the winds are blowing. If the arena goes belly up, downtown looks deserted and snakebit for a generation......do people notice that? I mean, nationally, not just in Louisville. If it is noticed, how is it portrayed and perceived? If the general thinking is unsympathetic, that Louisville got what it deserved, then they'll give them the death penalty. If there is a hint that the thinking is the NCAA was unduly harsh and deserves criticism for crippling a school and even a town....the finger will be up in the air, and will impact the ultimate call......
Perhaps they have already done some singing?
As to the death penalty, I see it as unlikely given the damage it would do the ACC.
But, my God, the Louisville Assistant Coach is caught on wire by the F.B.I. actually referencing the need for caution in handling the money, because his University is already on probation!!!!
Not sure singing keeps you off an indictment or a criminal complaint; however, Postel acted like there is an ongoing criminal investigation into UL sports.
