USC tries to be pro-active and nukes their own 2009-2010 basketball season...
AD Mike Garrett found out that, shockingly, rules were violated during OJ Mayo's one season with the Trojans under former coach Tim Floyd.
Mayo did his one-and-done and now is in Memphis playing for the Grizzlies.
Some people would say that doing that is sanction enough...
The sanctions call for:
A one-year ban on all postseason play for this season,
A loss of one scholarship for this season and next,
A loss of one coach able to recruit this summer, and
20 less recruiting days next season...
Whatever in the hell that means in the grand scheme of things... they're also blowing up the 21 wins from that season.
SportsCentral's Jim Hill and Steve Hartman look at the fallout of the self-imposed ban and try to figure out where in the hell Mike Garrett and Kevin O'Neill go from here...
Mike Garrett's full statement is here on the USC website...
The HQ long has wondered what Kevin O'Neill was thinking when he took the job after Floyd abruptly resigned...
We're still wondering...
