This whole thing was really a stupid non-issue:

Quote

According to USF's institutional statement, two prospective student-athletes (whose names are redacted) received tutoring at USF's College of Medicine from the sister-in-law of Gerald Gillion, then special assistant to former coach Orlando Antigua.

Still, no information received during the probe suggested the recruits' coursework was fraudulent or otherwise reliant on the "impermissible assistance."

There was this too:

Former USF men's basketball assistant Oliver Antigua provided impermissible benefits, including lodging at his own home, for two prospective student-athletes while they received on-campus tutoring, according to findings reported to the school by the NCAA.

...

It indicates Antigua, who resigned last July, provided the benefits (not totaling more than $511)  ...

but still, unless there's stuff still not out, not why sure it had to be drug out this long ..... It is the NCAA, though.

So how did it come to the attention of the NCAA.  I forgot.  Did we self-report these things?

The UCF hacks who called us frauds and cheaters can go take a hike. COA might have been a poor coach, but he was not a cheater. This is almost nothing. 

The only downside is that it cost us a chance at the Big 12 because it looked like our house wasn't in order.

My grandmother has a saying (insert any name or entity you'd like), "The NCAA spanked USF with a Kleenex".

So he lodged perspective student athletes and made them go to tutoring? 

THAT was the violation? Seriously????

I'm not sure if things have changed in the last few years.  But back when UCF and Miami had all the trouble I did a little research.  Seems that the NCAA at that time had only two or three full time investigators to investigate every infraction with every school with every sport.  The workload was far too much to be able to handle investigations in a timely manner.

Nah, I'm going to go with the explanation that the Big 12 was never going to expand, anyway, and it was all a ploy to renegotiate their contract for more $ for member schools.
