Doesn't seem the cloud over Ohio St and Oregon effected recruiting and winning games. Here is OSU probation very similar to ours. The only difference is a HC that doesn't belief in making excuses and can recruit and develop talent. Pay close attention to the scholarship reductions which they are still under and compare to ours.
The penalties were as follows: And are still in place as they are working with scholarship reductions also.
•Public reprimand and censure
•Three years of probation from Dec. 20, 2011 through Dec. 19, 2014.
•Postseason ban for the 2012 football season, which includes the conference championship game.
•Reduction of football scholarships from 85 to 82 for each of the 2012-13, 2013-14 and 2014-15 academic years. This is an increase from the university's proposal of five initial scholarships spread over three academic years.
•Vacation of all wins for the 2010 football regular season, including the 2010 Big Ten Conference co-championship and participation in the 2011 Sugar Bowl. (self imposed by the university)
•Forfeiture of $338,811, which is the amount the university received through the Big Ten Conference revenue-sharing for its appearance in the bowl game (self imposed by the university)
•Five-year show-cause order for the former head coach.
•Disassociation of the booster for 10 years, including among other conditions, the prohibition of any financial or other support (self imposed by the university).
•Disassociation of a former student-athlete for five years, including among other conditions, the prohibition of any financial or other support (self imposed by the university).
Tressel was asked to resign as Ohio State coach in May. He was replaced by Luke Fickell on an interim basis before the university hired Urban Meyer to take over next season.
Here is what Oregon received and is still under.
Oregon faces three years of scholarship reductions, starting last year and extending through 2014-15. It also faces reductions in paid visits and evaluation days, but avoided some of the harsher penalties handed down to other programs in recent years.
Through self-imposed sanctions, Oregon lost one new scholarship in 2012-13 and its total number of scholarships was reduced by one from the maximum of 85. It also will lose a new scholarship in 2013-14 and have the total reduced by one each year through the 2014-15 academic year.
"Even one matters," Mullens said.
The NCAA reduced Oregon's official paid visits from 56 to 37 for the next three academic years, reduced its evaluation days for each of the next three seasons and banned the program from using recruiting services during the probation period.
It also placed an 18-month show-cause order for Kelly, which would require schools wishing to hire him to appear before the Committee on Infractions to determine if the school should be subject to the show-cause procedures. Kelly left Oregon this year to become the coach of the Philadelphia Eagles.
