🏈 Alabama could hear from the NCAA as early as next week

... according to Chris Low.

DESTIN, Fla. -- Alabama officials expect to hear from the NCAA on possible penalties resulting from the textbook scandal as early as next week.
With the SEC spring meetings going on this week, it's doubtful that the NCAA would hand down a decision this week.
What most everybody agrees on is that there will be some type of probation for the Crimson Tide, probably a two-year term. What that means is that they can't have anything happen NCAA-related during that period or there could be serious consequences.
It's still unclear what kind of penalties Alabama will receive. Initially, the feeling was that there wouldn't be any scholarship losses. But as the process has dragged on, there have been increasing rumblings that the Tide could lose a scholarship or two for each of the next two years.
Keep in mind that the textbook case doesn't involve just Alabama football players. In fact, there were more athletes from other sports involved, particularly track, than there were in football.

I'll be glad when they finally make their ruling.

I'll be glad to get it over with as well, but the longer they take it makes me worry about how harsh the penalities will be.

In regards to the link above, I don't care for the 28 number. It seems a little geared towards certain schools. If I had to choose a number, I'd go with 30, or 29 for the psychological effect of being under 30. In this day and age of kids flip flopping schools, and slipping grades, and coaching turnover, oversigning is almost a necessity.

Thanks alot Nutt.
