It's been reported that nearly 25 Florida State Seminoles will be suspended for the bowl game and the first 3 games of the following season. President T.K. Wetherell blamed lack of oversight by atheltic department officials, a rogue tutor, and lack of attention to detail by a faculty member.
I wonder if Bobby Bowden, who is the face of FSU athletics, would have survived if his name wasn't a legend at that university. How do you not know, as head of the football program, that approximately two dozen of his players were cheating? If there is lack of athletic department oversight, is it simply due to the former AD? Utlimately, coach Bowden is responsible. Had this happened at any other university, would the football coach survive?
Somehow, I doubt it.
