College Sports 101: A U.N.C. Class Reviews a Scandal at Its Source[/b]

"The result was one of the worst academic scandals in college sports history, and a huge black mark on UNC and its proud athletic program. The university’s accreditation body placed North Carolina on probation. But critics saw few systemic changes."[/quote]

The big schools don't really get hurt by scandals.  Even Penn State applications surged back quickly after Sandusky.  Michigan State has had a drop, but I bet that will come back quickly.  Duke is not impacted in the least by taking on one-and-done basketballers whose stats are far below those of the average student and who don't do anything academic after the first semester.

I doubt that there will be any impact to USC, despite several scandals now, and certainly not for the other schools in the college bribery scandals.
