I think it's pretty easy to see that larger more prominent sports universities (USC, Ohio State, Texas, etc.) are breaking the exact same, if not more, number of rules. But the NCAA is all about the money, and if USC goes down the tank (god forbid!), then the NCAA is a monster and cruel.
But if they ruin Alabama State, they're staying true to the rules that they set... but it's Alabama freaking State and 7 people are upset.
It's just bull[censored].
The NCAA needs to make it clear or not clear - if you cheat, will you be punished? It can't have a sliding scale for how much money that particular school gets.
It's just like the NBA playoffs this year. Some of the roughest fouls I've seen in the post season. There were suspensions last year, but now that it could be Boston Los Angeles in the championship, you can bet that there won't be even a whisper of a suspension for either of those two teams.

If the NCAA has evidence of top schools changing grades, they will go after them. The top schools all have enough major violation reports in their history that its difficult to claim the NCAA doesn't punish the big dogs.
