Fr. Jenkins' Response to NCAA - Media Reacts

The NCAA turned down Notre Dame's appeal for academic fraud penalties -- thus, our Fighting Irish Football team must forfeit 21 victories over the 2012 and 2013 seasons...

This decision is in great contrast to a recent NCAA ruling in favor of North Carolina, even after it was confirmed student-athletes took FAKE CLASSES for years in Chapel Hill -- NCAA RULING.  


Here is Fr. John Jenkins, C.S.C.'s written response to the NCAA -- please take your time reading this -- you'll note that Notre Dame is receiving a penalty for a matter that will never be considered a NCAA violation -- ever again.
