I continue to be amazed at how the NCAA issues punishments. Unless I'm missing something big, the violations committed by Oregon don't even come close to the UNCheat issues.
The NCAA committee on infractions placed Oregon's athletic department on two years' probation on Wednesday for violations in its men's and women's basketball, football and women's track and field programs.
Additionally, the NCAA ruled that Oregon women's basketball coach Kelly Graves failed to monitor his staff and promote an atmosphere of compliance and suspended him for two games this season. The NCAA also ruled that men's basketball coach Dana Altman failed to monitor his director of operations, who was given a two-year show-cause order by the committee.
The NCAA also fined Oregon $5,000, plus one percent of its men's and women's basketball budgets.

You know that episode of South Park where the gov't is trying to decide what to do about the economy so they cut the head off a chicken and wherever its body lands is the solution? That's how the NCAA decides stuff.
Having alumni as acc commissioner and as head of the infraction committee certainly helped in unc's case
The difference is the money behind UNC bought NCAA a long time ago
Doesn't Oregon have just as much money because of Phil Knight and Nike?
But you can look at their uniforms and know they don't spend it wisely.
Money now doesn't matter. Go back in NCAA history
