The NCAA and USC (UPDATE)

June 9

The USC penalties will be announced tomorrow.
This has been the longest investigation (14 weeks) that I can remember. The football program could be forced to forfeit victories from Bush's seasons there (2003-05) -- during which time the Trojans won a national championship and lost in the BCS title game against Texas. But though USC chose to contest the allegation against the football program, its ultimate goal is to overcome the perception of a lack of institutional control, which could result in significant sanctions, including scholarship reductions, TV and postseason bans, recruiting restrictions and probation.

Updates

Tulane QB TJ Finley has been suspended indefinitely
