Amazing. College football has become a big business.
Can anyone think of a more fair punishment? I agree that this is going to impact people in no way involved with the scandal (i.e. the current crop of players), but what else could they do?
I think that everyone saw this coming. Or something like it, at least. Pete Caroll had avoided NFL vacancies for years and suddenly he jets off to the god awful Seahawks?

It's an all right idea, but how do we know the revenue isn't being used for positive things: teacher and faculty salaries, facility renovations, etc.?
I don't know much about college sports or how revenue is generated or where it's spent. It seems very unfair to me that young kids who are pursuing their dream are going to be stiffed because of rules broken by a bunch of crooked adults.
I can, fine past players and coaches and make the fines so huge that it scares people. The ones who committed the crimes. I won't be crying if Reggie Bush would have to donate 15-20 million for scholarships of other athletes.

I read an editorial about this today that I felt had a better idea for punishment. Since USC has to vacate all the wins for this time, they should also have to return all of the revenues that they generated from tv, tickets, bowl money etc.
