Larry Burton (Syndicated Writer) Too many fans throw the word cheater around to describe a rival. Not all major infractions mean the school themselves are cheaters, just that they or a student there, broke a rule.
Below is a cumulative list of NCAA violators over the past 10 years. These are not speculations, but facts taken from hundreds of pages of NCAA investigations and rulings. Teams listed below were teams that only had a ruling of a major violation.
In the past ten years, 100 teams have made the list of major violators.
Some teams may have had up to 10 major violations in one ruling. Each team is named with the date of the NCAA ruling and the number of major violations that were ruled against them.
If you want to see who the real rule breakers are, this is the only fair way to do this.
Why 10 years? That is an era in football, the time when a young man goes from eight years old to signing with a school to play ball. It is the the "lifetime" for him for everything he's seen a team do and accomplish.
Few coaches last more than 10 years in one spot as well.
Most Violating Teams in a Major Conferences
Big Ten - eight out of ten or 80%
Pac 10 - seven out of ten or 70%
Big 12 - eight of twelve or 66%
SEC - seven out twelve or 58%
Big East - seven out of sixteen or 43% *Counts Notre Dame as they are a member
ACC - Three out of twelve or 25%
Clearly the SEC has gotten far too much bad press. The nation may perceive them as the biggest violators when in fact only one conference has has had fewer teams busted.
