I think they (Oklahoma) should be brought up on student recruiting violations as well.
The National Merit Scholars office practically promised our son that the Sooners would be national champions in football while he was there (2002-2006).
Shame.
If it weren't for his free academic ride, I'd be furious.
Well, maybe not.
(Sorry, Kevin, yet another cheap shot)
In reality, I think it speaks volumes when a program turns itself in. Kudos for Castiglione and company. As pointed our earlier, there's very little chance the NCAA would have discovered this on its own.

BS! I'm quite positive the NCAA keeps very close tabs on the texags.com message board!

In the actual NCAA report it states that both the NCAA and OU were sent an anonymous email. The report can be found here just search for Oklahoma.
https://goomer.ncaa.org/wdbctx/LSDBi/LSDBI.home
"In its response to the enforcement staff's notice of allegations, the institution claimed that it "self-reported" the employment violations to the NCAA. In reality, the violations at the dealership were first exposed in a March 3, 2006, electronic message (e-mail) sent by an anonymous source to both the NCAA enforcement staff and to institution officials. This e-mail stated that several student-athletes, including student-athlete 1, the institution's starting quarterback, were paid by the dealership for work that they did not perform. But for this e-mail, it is unlikely that these violations would have come to light"

How seriously can anyone take an anonymous email? If that's all it takes, I'm going to send a few anonymous emails to USC and the NCAA right now. Apparently, neither is aware of the situation over there.

Actually, if the NCAA receives an anonymous email they will ask the institution to look into the accusations and determine any wrongdoing.

I'm sure that works great when they request such info from USC or tOSU.
Sorry DA, that's the University of Southern California and The Ohio State University.
