And now from the, "yeah, this makes sense" department:

AP reports Oklahoma must erase its wins from the 2005 football season and will lose two scholarships for the 2008-09 and 2009-10 school years, the NCAA said Wednesday.

The penalties stem from a case involving two players, including the Sooners' starting quarterback, who were kicked off the team last August for being paid for work they had not performed at a Norman car dealership. The NCAA said Oklahoma was guilty of a "failure to monitor" the employment of the players.

So OU forfeits its wins. Yet Reggie Bush's family received over $100,000 in cash and a home to live in while he was at USC, and USC has so far not been punished or stripped of their wins (and title.)

Huh?

With you 100% on that one as far as USC getting away with it as very telling, however, I think college athletes should receive some type of compensation based on the huge income they bring to the university and this wouldn't be an issue.

Are you an OU grad or just a fellow USC hater?
