NCAA works a little differently. A football analogy:

SEC is the best league. A violation on a successful program like Alabama (storied program) can trigger an in depth scrutiny on Auburn, Arkansas, South Carolina, Tennessee, Kentucky, Miss State, Ole Miss (which has happened). Since these schools were trying to keep up with Bama with major-minor infractions.

Big east is by far now the best league along with ACC in Basketball. Paying off recruites, recruites relatives is nothing new. If Larry Brown can give Danny Manning's dad a job at school (Kansas) before recruiting him cross country then all other coaches are faltu cheaters. Bobby Knight is no longer coaching. One school falls others soon will be investigated. This thing starts like wild fire with tips "they are doing it too". NCAA will look in to all Big east schools and there is no doubt about it. Hopefully for your sake Pitt escapes.
