Exactly my thoughts.

The reality of these schools getting caught by the NCAA with increasing frequency is just that, they've been caught. If you think your program is crystal clean, it might not be. There's a good chance it is, but a lot of stuff just falls through the cracks. Though Troy, or anyone else may not have been searched hard by the NCAA, that doesn't mean we're all clean. I never thought Boise would on the receiving end of the NCAA's investigations, so its an eye opener as to whether our programs are doing everything right like we think they are. I think every team bends the rules in some fashion. But that's just my opinion.

"In all, the NCAA found the total value of impermissible benefits over five years was $4,934 for all of the housing, transportation and meals provided to 63 incoming student-athletes. All services ranged from $2.34 to a maximum of $417.55 and have been reimbursed by the student-athletes."


Lack of institutional contol over $4,934 over 5 years. That's $987 a year for meals.

Ok, Boise State should charge the NCAA with lack of institutional control over the Fieta Bowl boondoggle. This is retaliation for Boise State questioning the status quo. This is crap.

Boise State AD makes interesting comments about the BCS system

HMMMM....$4,934 for 63 student athletes over a 5 year period. That is a whopping $78.31 per person. That is a hotel room or less. The low end was $2.34...what did they do, but the guy a coke and a candy bar?

It will be interesting to see what happens to them versus what happens to Ohio St. I mean, you have 5 players selling goods and receiving gifts and a coach who knew about it and lied to the NCAA.

Speaking of institutional control.............FIESTA BOWL !!!!!!!!!!!!
