Wow, kind of surprised everyone focused on Bobby here and not the issue. As a Gator fan, of course I am happy to see any sanctions on a rival. However, it does seem like stiff penalties for self reporting. I wonder how bad it would have been if it the NCAA initiated the investigation!?
The funny thing is Bobby has never run a truly clean program and now it costs him what he covets most the all time win record. -
The problem with this scandel is the university not Bobby Bowden. I have alot of respect for Bowden and what he has done even for a rival school. I think people are making him out to be something he is not. I think the penalty is where it needs to be only because they played ineligable players -
