After reading the" Blind Side" by Michael Lewis (good book) and seeing the movie, it got me curious about NCAA investigations. So I googled this subject and got at least 30 pages about NCAA investigations. Very interesting reading. I am amazed how many basketball and football investigations there are and how few baseball investigations I saw.
One article (on SI.com I think) talked about the U of So Cal investigations being merged. It's been 3 years in the works to investigate their FB and Basketball programs. This article said it's really in the colleges favor for this to drag on as they may not really want to fine/punish this program due to the loss of money (millions in tv $).
Anyway, I was even more amazed the NCAA spent so much time on the few baseball investigations when those possible transgressions seemed trivial in comparison to FB and BB.
And the NCAA did determine in Michael Oher's case there were no NCAA violations. This was an interesting book as it talked a lot about football in general, not just about Oher and his adopted family.
