If they started witch hunting and wanted to strip titles away for violations in NCAA sports, there probably would be few banners left over the last forty years.

Are we going to go back strip UCLA of all of the titles Wooden won while he was there?

Are we going to strip the Canes of all of those titles?

How about Notre Dame? Are we going to strip them of the title they won during the Holtz years?

The list goes on and on. This is nothing new.

The potential problem for USC goes beyond the trail of money to Bush. The Trojan program could be found by the NCAA to have failed to exert proper institutional control.

Sources told Yahoo! Sports that representatives of New Era were allowed into the USC locker room during the 2005 season. Ornstein and other agents frequented the USC sidelines during several games and numerous practices that season, according to published reports.



These are the key issues with USC. If they knew what was going on, and did nothing about it... Otherwise, colleges are going to have a very difficult time exterting "institutional control" over athletes that secretively get agents way ahead. Colleges would need private investigators. The colleges have a hard enough time keeping the alumnists away from the kids. Now when you have a coaching staff directly involved in the pathway of the money to the kids, you got a whole diff. problem. That is when the NCAA comes down hard.
