You can't convince me that the Baylor boosters have sufficient money to influence the NCAA.  Baylor is such a regional school; if it weren't for Ann Richards, it wouldn't have even been included in the Big 12.  It's not really a top-tier research university as most of the flagship state university schools in the conference are.  It may be that the NCAA is afraid of setting precedent, only to find out in the next ten years that other schools are suffering from similar losses of institutional control.

Or maybe the NCAA is just spineless.
