Oregon going down for major violations

[Cockholio]

Documents released by the University of Oregon show the school and the NCAA agree "major" violations were committed by the football program, both The Oregonian and Portland, Ore., television station KATU reported Monday.

The documents focus heavily on Will Lyles, who ran a recruiting and scouting service and has been widely reported to be at the center of the investigation, according to the reports. Most of the alleged violations cited occurred during the tenure of former Ducks coach Chip Kelly, who left Oregon in January to become the coach of the Philadelphia Eagles.

I see they didn't get charged with lack of instiutional control..they will get some penalties but I bet they aren't severe.

Nike $ + elite program will = no major punishment.

Lose some scholly's, one year bowl ban and they'll move on.

Kelly, on the other hand, gets away scott-free.

Lol...what a NCG that was a few years back...Auburn vs. Oregon...now both looking at violations

[Mr. Burns]

Chip Kelly has that Pete Carroll sixth sense.

[WayzUp]

You knew there was trouble coming the second Chip Kelly jumped ship....the rats always know first when trouble is looming.

Agreed, getting off without being served the "lack of institutional control" is big here. Punishment won't be nearly as severe because of that.

It sounds like what we went through.

Yea I was thinking they will get punishments similar to TN and SC.

Loss of scholly's, some recruiting restrictions and lenghty "double secret Probation".

[Spurticus]

There was a story a year or so back involving Lyles and the recruiting
of players to LSU and Clemson (Tajh Boyd). That kind of disappeared
over the course of a year.

[Mr.101]

And here I was thinking it was the uniforms

I'm really going to be pissed if they don't get at least as much as we did. This NCAA favoritism bullshit needs to be dealt with right now by the college presidents. Sadly, most of them don't have the guts to do what's right.

We got what we imposed upon ourselves.
We gave the NCAA a list of sanctions "WE" thought were fair for the
"Crime" and hoped they would accept it. They simply said "This is
fine, no further sanctions" !

Turns out we MIGHT have gotten off even lighter had we toned it down
some, but the AD and the School were expecting a heavy hand by the
NCAA and it turns out we were way too hard with our self sanctions.
Probably could have gotten off lighter.

There is no way of knowing if the NCAA would have come down harder on us than we did on ourselves. Any attempt to say otherwise is pure, unadulterated speculation.

Since they aren't going to hammer UNC, I can't see how they can really be tough on anyone, any more.

Part of the reason we self-imposed what we did is because we were a repeat offender. Oregon is self-imposing a 2 year probation along with loss of 1 scholarship per year for 3 years.....this for at least a 1 major violation. Yea that sounds fair.

[MisterClowney]

Will be interesting to see what the NCAA does amongst all of their internal turmoil.
