NCAA cites South Carolina Gamecocks for failure to monitor - ESPN

The NCAA has ruled that South Carolina failed to monitor its athletic program and has accepted the school's proposed sanctions to cut six football scholarships the next three years and slash its official recruiting visits by more than half.

There were no forfeiture of games or bowl ban attached the penalties which stemmed from athletes receiving $59,000 in impermissible benefits.

The NCAA said South Carolina's cooperation went "beyond standard expectations."

The school will also pay a fine of $18,500.

Looks like 3 underperformers will not be back on the team each of the next 2 years. It's called the Urbanectomy procedure (aka Kiffinectomy). The NCAA almost promotes cheating with these kinds of penalties. Pussies.

The inconsistency in which the NCAA rules is embarrassing. But then again, considering how the NCAA operates, is nothing out of the ordinary. Don't want to hurt any programs from the precious SEC.

Garbage.
