    9 other sports affected as well

    Good grief.

    "The sanctions will force Bowden to forfeit all wins during which ineligible students competed during 2006 and 2007. It is not immediately clear how many games will have to be forfeited."

    I guess he can retire now.

    "The football team will be limited to 83 total scholarships in 2008-09; 82 in 2009-10; and 84 in 2010-11; the maximum usually allowed by the NCAA is 85. Florida State self-imposed the loss of the two scholarships for 2008-09, and will self-impose the loss of three scholarships for 2009-10. The NCAA added an additional loss of scholarship from the maximum in 2010-11."

    So maybe they're also still looking at USC and the Reggie years...

    One can hope.

    Of course, I'm also on my second drink.

    I couldn't imagine something like this happening to my favorite team. That's just terrible for the fans.

    I hope Tennessee is watching.
