And that, I believe, was the last time the Death Penalty was ever given out, to anyone, for anything. _

What about Tulane in basketball after the John Williams gambling / point shaving scandal? Was that ncaa mandated or self-imposed?

I thought the Tulane scandal was before SMU?? And I don't know if it was self-imposed, good question.

Death Penalty Of course, the article blithely leaves out all the "unimportant" schools who received the Death Penalty, i.e. all of them except SMU. One of us needs to edit it.

This is a few lines pulled out of an Advocate article that CajunFun posted on his website. I was about the tuition hike bill which is needed to catch up schools esp. UL who has one of the lowest tuitions in the state and the southeast. LSU is trying to slide in another bill to basically double the amount of their fee increases unlike what the rest of the state schools will be able to do. Under the current bill LSU's 5% increase is approx $234 and UL $176. At least for now their $500 seperate bill is on hold! Guess they are trying to hide it better, or increase it more if they are able.


Here it is:
Another bill — House Bill 677 — that would phase in LSU fee increases by $500 a year was deferred temporarily on Monday.

What about Boston College basketball?

Tulane scandal was in about 1986. The penalty was self imposed by Tulane. I don't recall how long they stayed without a program. It was about 5 years I believe. I don't recall when the SMU football program was hit.
