Soulstation1 Posted February 11, 2015 Report Posted February 11, 2015 Not always on the up and up but his UNLV teams were really good in the late 1980/90s Quote
ejp626 Posted February 11, 2015 Report Posted February 11, 2015 I remember those teams.Sad how quite a number of teams from that era had recruiting violations. Still can't quite accept the punishment UMich received. Mostly because I think NCAA credibility is 0 on these issues, so I don't like them singling out individual programs/coaches or pretending that they can somehow award the games to another team. Frankly, that is farcical.This is much on my mind with the recent news about the Jackie Robinson Jr. little league team being punished -- for something that is pretty common among little league teams.

Tim McG Posted February 18, 2015 Report Posted February 18, 2015 (edited) Every team he coached went on probation after he left Yup. Back in the day the NCAA would punish all sports at the university. That's what happened to my college, Long Beach State, after he left for Lost Wages. Edited February 18, 2015 by TimMcG Quote
