I do expect more penalties than what we have self imposed. We self imposed a 1 year bowl ban, that is it. More is coming. I am expecting 3-4 probation, 15 schollys, another 1 year bowl ban (like we are going to a serious bowl with this gutted team next year anyways), and the drum roll......... Hurtt 3 year cause, Stoutland 3 year cause, and Haith 3-5 cause.

I have no information on this, this is straight pulled out of my ***, but I believe it will be something along those lines.

That's pretty harsh IMO. Haith for 3-5 years when the only thing they have is Jones and that seems flimsy at best?

I think it's more of an all or nothing thing here - if Tressel got 5 years for not reporting extra benefits like some free tats, you would think Haith would be in much more trouble if he knew about a $10,000 payment going to a player to get him to come to Miami (extra benefits for recruits is worse than players already there). Now this is only if: 1) There was a payment and 2) Haith knew. If either of those are not true or cant be proven, then I think he gets no punishment, if they are proven well I think he is going to be out of the NCAA for a long time if not forever.

It's the way we roll from here on out, cannot afford any dead weight anymore, no need to clear 15 out every year, but 4-5 that aren't contributing need to have the door hit them on the *** on the way out
 
If we are going to take 35 kids, we will need to make room. We have 8 open schollies and 17 SRs approximately. We will need to jettison at least 10 kids between now and August.
