NCAA, USC, UConn and Calhoun
The NCAA's philosophy is that member schools want to win within the rules. So the schools are supposed to police themselves and call infractions on themselves. I think USC
's biggest problems in the Bush case were that they did not investigate when allegations were made against Bush's family and that an assistant coach was thought to have lied about it.
So UConn calling penalties on themselves is what the NCAA wants. Of course, these penalties look pretty light to me and I hope to the NCAA. I would guess that UConn thinks or hopes that their pro-active move will lessen the NCAA penalties.
What is most interesting to me is that you have a player with a very bad rep. Calhoun took him then he get expelled for sexual assault and went to a JC. The UConn staff violated the rules trying to recruit him back to UConn. Shows how desperate they must be.
