NCAA punishes USC - Reggie Bush, OJ Mayo, Dwayne Jarrett, Joe McKnight investigation

I just think that making McKnight go elsewhere would be unduly harsh.
Wah. So if it's found that he was recruited "illegally" he should still get to play at USC like nothing happened. Riiight...

To this day, people still view the Bucks as "shady." Yet, Petey is seen as a "players coach, the kind of guy you want to play for." The damage that ESPN, and other media types, did to this program is still being repaired. Sorry, but I have no sympathy for SC.
GPA material...

So maybe you weren't directly comparing the situations, but my point still stands.

Ohio State was targeted like no other program before or since. That's not selective retention, it's fact. Show me one other instance where a program has been dragged through the mud like Ohio State was during the whole Clarett/Troy Smith fiasco.

The Clarett allegations were found to have NO merit through NCAA investigations, but I don't remember that ever making the news. Troy Smith took a whopping $500 from a booster that Ohio State self reported and got dinged for. ESPN continued to bash Ohio State. I'll get you the DVD of the Alamo Bowl so you can hear it for yourself. Pregame, during the game, postgame. That was just the tip of the iceburg.

Herbstreit was right there bashing along with Corso and Tirico during the broadcast, but one of our local guys brings up the McKnight thing this past week and what does Herbie say? "Well, I was talking to Lane Kiffin about that this week and I think the whole thing is being blown out of proportion."

It's funny how nobody wants to blow things out of proportion now, but they were perfectly willing to blow things out of proportion on the word of a known liar (Clarett).

Speaking of the word of known liars, why no discussion on the little detail that the agents in the Bush case have changed their story? :biggrin:

please tell me that your reasoning is not that because oklahoma got away with it, so should usc (if the allegations are accurate).

My point is that the penalties should be more along the lines of the penalties dished out in that case (restrict the coach's recruiting in the future).

Were the illegal calls found out before the kids played?

My point is that to have such a wild variation in penalties depending on when the violations are uncovered is only going to discourage self-reporting.

Fair warning to others: don't use phrases like "those PSU fans are delusional" or "take off your rose-colored glasses" around 23skidoo.

In addition to being "psychobabble," selective retention comes into play in marketing and advertising (where I first learned about it). Thus, it is also busi-babble.

Obviously you had nothing left to add to the discussion, so instead decide to take potshots. Selective retention isn't used in marketing to dismiss opinions, especially not carte blanche like you've done here.
So obviously you've been using selective retention this entire time to only remember the term itself and the facets that help support your ridiculous argument. :roll1:

As for rose-colored glasses... last I checked, you're the USC fan. Selective retention is far more applicable to your situation than anyone else here.
