    Meh. You could say the players weren't involved, but I'd be shocked if there were players that didn't know what was going on, and if that's the case, they deserve blame too.

    Beyond that... Players don't decide to pay themselves. The schools do that. So, in a way, you could say players weren't involved in that scandal, either, in a sense that they weren't the ones committing the scandal. Sure, they received checks, but who is going to turn down free money?

    TBH, this looks like its worse than the death penalty.

    But I do get what you're saying.

    Yep, a lot of kids are going to transfer with not having to sit out a year...

    It's probably too late for the Sr class to transfer. Maybe even the Jr class to but the only ones that makes perfect sense is for the soph and fresh classes to move around. If this decision had come 6 months ago it'd be a different story. But this time of year any decent program will have their roster set...

    precisely why they had to remove any restrictions on players transferring.

    Wouldn't fair on the players if they gutted the team and then punished them for following their best interests. Only real option they had.

    They probably would've preferred the death penalty.
