I don't think the NCAA has decided yet. Just a speculation on my part, but if they were not going to be eligible, I doubt Meyer would have taken the job. The whole thing stinks already.

You have to figure they all know the answer to the question already. Why offer 7 years and 40 million and why accept it if the program is going to have those type of issues.

talks....

yeah, who knows? i'd have to think they'll get something-maybe a few scholarships lost, one year no post-season?

and yeah, he'd take the job-there's enough green to make up for no bowl.

True about the money. The only thing I could find online is Ohio St self imposed a 5 scholarship a year reduction over the next 3 years. The NCAA charged the program with a Failure to Monitor its football program and that a decison on any further sanctions is expected in December.

Everyone thinks they want to spend more time at home with the family. Until they actual do it and realize there is no work to go to and get away from home. Home is daunting, family is great, but not for a guy used to working round the clock, round the calendar. A four day weekend to me feels like a month away from work and I am only 36.

It depends on your job and your home life. A four day weekend feels like 5 minutes away from work for me.

yes, they are nuts. i believe everything i've seen so far about the psu scandal is that the ncaa has nothing in place for that type of situation.

but they can nab a coach who pays out bonuses that the school tries to scream 'they're broke' and won't pay...amazing.
