I think UMass has a good complaint about the forfeiture of games.

Punishment seems pretty harsh for what appears to be an administrative error. Especially as the NCAA is seriously considering opening a pandora's box of revenue streams for college athletes.
----------
From a practical standpoint does anyone really care about retroactive forfeits? I'm pretty sure the last time I was in the Mullins Center there was a FInal Four banner up there. Has anyone gone up to the players on the 2013 Louisville basketball team and confiscated their rings? I'll bet the UMass women's tennis players will tell anyone who asks that they won an A-10 championship.

Tom. You hit the nail on the head...the NCAA is trying to look "tough" but what they are doing has little or no effect on the team that violated some rule or other. It is especially silly when the technical violation was both discovered and reported by the school. If harsh penalties result then it might be best to say nothing, protest if something is discovered and, in that way, try to get a lesser penalty.
