They didn't even know about the investigation. If they really cared about policing their sports they could have gone to the FBI with whatever information to start that process.
We can't count on the NCAA to shut down or severely punish any program - they still haven't put any penalties on UNC for academic violations years ago.
From what I have read this was found by the SEC (Securities and Exchange Commission) during a unrelated investigation. There is no way the NCAA would have found this.

So will the families that accepted the brown paper bags be getting a letter from the IRS?
This is a big reason why you should never get upset about a recruit not picking ISU. It's a dirty, dirty game. Not saying we are innocent or guilty or something in between. Just be thankful for the players that do want to be Cyclones.
The king of the shoe game, Sonny Vaccaro, is "totally shocked" by this. He's not shocked that it happened, he's shocked by how immense and organized the crimes are.

Decent overview:
https://www.yahoo.com/amphtml/sport...ge-basketball-just-tip-iceberg-184524346.html
"Death penalty. Postseason bans. Mass firings. It’s going to be a scorched earth, the bill coming due on a sport that has operated in the shadows of corruption for generations.
Yet for college hoops none of it represents the scariest part of the three complaints laid out by the DOJ Tuesday. This, a statement by said undercover FBI agent, should terrify every coach in America:
“Because this affidavit is being submitted for the limited purpose of establishing probable cause, it does not include all of the facts that I have learned during the court of the investigation.”
Meaning, this is the tip of the iceberg."

So if I'm reading that correctly, they could be looking at recruits all the way back to 2000?Mark SchlabachVerified account @Mark_Schlabach 1h1 hour ago
