A two-year bowl ban and a loss of more than 20 football scholarships are among the sanctions that the NCAA has dealt USC, a source with knowledge of the situation said Wednesday.
The NCAA, the governing body for collegiate sports, informed USC of its decision after a four-year investigation regarding allegations centered on former football player Reggie Bush and former basketball player O.J. Mayo. The NCAA could make its decision public as early as today.
USC officials would not confirm that the school had received the NCAA's report. Asked if USC had heard from the NCAA, Athletic Director Mike Garrett said: "We are looking at things right now. That's about all I can say."
USC spokesmen said the university would address the situation when the NCAA makes the report public.
Limited recruiting contacts, probation and forfeiture of victories are also among the penalties regarded as possibly in play. USC sources, who requested anonymity

Wonder if Mr. Petey saw this coming??? /s
Changes the dynamic some. Wonder how it will affect the PAC 10 expansion?
I read a report on the conference shake-up and it seems that Cal-Berkeley has issues with Baylor being asked to join the Pac-10 because Baylor is a religion based school
Then let Cal-Berkeley play in the same division as the universities of iran, saudi arabia and north korea. they’ll feel more at home.
If the big 12 split happens as I fear it will, that would be one of the few bright spots.
Baylor? I thought it was going to be Texas and Colorado joining the Pac 10? Which is goofy if you ask me.
The NCAA had to hammer them. If they had not then college football would was turned into a nationwide version of the old Southwest Conference.
Colorado has been asked to join the Pac-10 officially. Texas law makers wanted Baylor
They just don’t want to be seen getting their butts whupped by the Baptists.
Does this give Lane the right to bail on his contract?
Gee, read the whole thread... Not only musical chairs but FAST musical chairs.
Good question
Golden Boy Pete Carroll bugged out just in time and left USC holding the bag. Lane Kiffin was dumb enough to go back. Normally a new head coach would be entitled to some sympathy for having to clean up the mess, but since Kiffin was on Carroll’s staff through most of those years he’s not going to get much sympathy.
Looks like the Sooners will be named the 2004 National Champions and Reggie Bush forfeit his Heisman
Cheaty Petey knew what was going on. He allowed these sports reps into the locker room AND the side lines
Give it to Auburn instead...
They’ll just add an asterisk*
