Wants to hear what comes out in the hearing, get an idea what possible sanctions they are facing… Good move on his part, at least in terms of someone that would actually consider sc at this point.

Owa willl destroy him!

Scout shows Henderson as having already sent in his LOI, though we have word from his father that no letter has been delivered to SC. Guess the recruiting folks do jump the gun, after all.

the NCAA will take up to 6 weeks to announce a decision on any sanctions. If this is true then the NCAA decision could technically be after the 4-1-10 deadline for LOI.

They’re just waiting for the the “package” to arrive a la Chris Mills. Then he’ll be signing. :D

Kids dont have to sign a LOI…you don’t need a letter of intent for a scholarship or to attend a school. The only benefits are that the school will know that he’s coming and reserve a scholarship which they are bound to provide for a year (provided that he gains admission) and that other schools can no longer recruit him. IMO the letter of intent protects the school more than the student-athlete. I don’t think SC is going to use his scholarship on someone else, so he doesn’t really have anything to lose by not signing – if he does sign however then he is bound to SC for a year despite what happens with the NCAA, unless SC chooses to release him. Good call.

Is there any info on the possible sanctions. In the age of rapid info how does nobody know what might happen. Does the NCAA feel if they drag there feet long enough everyone will forget. I mean there in a tight spot here everyone knows there a joke but they don’t want to put the hammer down on suc and at the same time if they do nothing the flood gates for this will kind of behavior will be open. I guess we can only wait and hope that karma and justice will be served them and the a hole grin frozen on suc fan will be wiped off if only for a second.

On Henderson, USC and possible sanctions:

But while visiting the Hendersons last week in Minneapolis, Lane Kiffin told them not to be worried, Sean Henderson said.

"As far as he’s been informed — he was very, very choosy with his words — there shouldn’t be anything going wrong because there was no knowledge of anything going on by the staff," Sean Henderson said. The Hendersons asked Kiffin to be clear about what impact the N.C.A.A. might have on the Trojans’ football program, Sean Henderson said. Just before Seantrel chose U.S.C. on Wednesday, Kiffin reiterated not to listen to others who said the Trojans might face sanctions.

Going to be an interesting few weeks in the CFB world, wrt the NCAA enforcement committee and whether they have any guts at all.

If you feel uneasy enough to hold off signing a LOI, that should be all the indication you need. Go somewhere else.

that the NCAA will fail in punishing U$C for all their past transgressions, simply slapping them on the wrist…

But after a few years of Lamey openly cheating, they will reevaluate all the new violations and come down incredibly hard on what is obviously a ‘repeat offender’. I just can’t envision the NCAA having any balls the first time around, but they will on the second try.

(I’m a pessimist, but I just can’t see anything significant really happening this time around.)

Dillon Baxter was told by Kiffin that “they would take a couple of losses away” and that’s it! So there’s nothing to worry about Seantrel!

He made the Miami coach wait extra hour and half while he was getting his “hair done.” He called Jim Tressel “boring.” Miami sent out a limo (which is a possible NCAA violation) to take him and his Dad to the airport. This story sounds like a total mess.
