Judas. When are coaches actually going to be punished for violations?

If they occurred on his watch, he's "involved" whether he did something directly or not.

Yeah I agree. When I first saw the thread the "under Kiffen" part didn't show up. After I posted my question it was there. So my question seems somewhat rhetorical and I apologize.

As his track record continues to develop I hope they )the NCAA) does something to diminish people like him throughout the ranks of college athletics

The NCAA needs to develop stronger sanctions that follow coaches who have continuous violations. Until these guys get their livelihood threatened (or taken away) it's not going to change. The bad apples will keep rolling along, feeling like they can't be touched.

It is pretty stupid that the responsible coaches can skip town before the hammer comes down leaving the future athletes and the university to deal with it. The NCAA needs to come up with something where the sanctions follow the coach where ever he goes or at least make the coach ineligible for a few years. Something needs to be done.

Yeah but Kiffen apparently jumped from the frying pan into the fire.

Seeing how it's a fire he helped to create, it's exactly where he belongs. Let him deal with the consequences since he was on Cheaty Petey's staff when the violations happened.

Still he is making $5 million a year while the next few teams at USC will suffer with the Bowl ban and scholarship loss. Something isn't right.

I hope the NCAA finds something and drops the hammer on Kiffin
