Clemson is neither here nor there.  Chip Kelly was hit with a show-cause and is now the head coach at UCLA.  I'm sure someone will eventually hire Rick Pitino, and maybe even Art Briles will be hired.  It says more about the pressure to win than it does the integrity of the coaches.

Ultimately, the question is: did Rittman commit NCAA violations?  Was Stanford hit with its first major NCAA findings?  Is that something we want?  Do we want to be just another NCAA program with all the violations and corruption that goes with it, and accept sanctions as just another cost of winning or do we aspire to more than that?  John may have gotten screwed, but he also screwed himself, unless you are alleging he did not do what he was found (by the NCAA) to have done.
