USC stripped!

The really funny or sad part to all this is that all the cheating has paid off for USC. So they lose the trophy and went on probation for a couple of years. By cheating, they have become one of the most powerful programs in college football. They were just another program until Pete Carroll took over. They started cheating bigtime and now USC is one of the most powerful programs in the country. Their recruiting has been hurt little if at all during probation because kids remember when USC won that National Championship and how good USC was during those years. Those years are imprinted in many kids brains and they WANT to play for USC. They don't care if the program was or is dirty...they just want a chance to play for USC.

Cheating does pay off bigtime for the bigtime programs. A little probation is not going to slow down USC or osu or Texas. The cheating is produced the programs they are today, espcially at the level they are at. Those teams got SO much exposure from the cheating that kids all over the country want to play for them.

This really isn't true at all. USC had been selling to the kids they recruited that their appeal was going to be successful and their punishment would be lifted. Now that their appeal has been denied, they are going to start feeling the effects of the loss of scholarships for the next three years. Let's wait to see where they are in three years before we say what kind of impact the NCAA penalties had.
 
Does this include the cheerleaders as well?

Not really fair to lump Texas in there with those two programs. I get what you mean though.
 
IMO revoking a national championship 7 years later does very little to hurt recruiting. That said, the loss of scholarships will definitely take a toll on them.
