Schools who were offered the game plans and didn't turn in WF should be penalized also.

We know it's a slap on the wrist but don't bother questioning us.
I hope sports media skewers these fools in charge.

I am almost sad now that Hillary lost because Swofford would have a great choice for her to head the Department of Justice. Wow, this decision sends a powerful message about sportsmanship and integrity. And I'll "have no further comment surrounding this matter." What a joke.....what an embarrassment. How does this guy keep his job?!?

the $25K fine seems low... until you realize it is the MAX the ACC can fine a league member. so, while in the big picture, it is a small fine, at least the league went as far as it could. perhaps the bylaws should be changed. not sure WF was fined.

That's fine. Now the NCAA needs to get involved.

WAKE is the victim here, no way they should be fined.
This investigation needs to be picked up by the NCAA and they need to unleash their own punishment which should be harsh. If not, then you condone this sort of behavior.

I can't stand both schools.
I would like to ask swofford when swofford will fine UNcheat for their fake class scandal. I know it's not going to happen.

Hmmm. Vacate the wins. Louisville loses one more in 2016. How does that affect the Heisman if that win had been vacated. Maybe Jacksons numbers were inflated due to inside info. Yea, what am I saying? They could have caught Jackson grabbing crab legs AND steaks and the Press was still going to give it to him

It will be interesting to see how Army self-penalizes. I bet they will do a lot more.

So no action towards WF? Lack of institutional control? Let's put women's basketball on probation. Guess they didn't give away tee shirts so none of what all 3 did compares to GT?

Swofford should check out that board in his and UNC's own eye

It's a Biblical reference but the point is as much as I loathe what was done here it's nothing compared to the academic fraud that went on for years at UNC!!

What's comical is Swofford's quote on the matter. He didn't seem so interested in cheating when it was unc.
