The way I see it, the ban by the NCAA is currently in force. So if UH does not hear from the NCAA prior to the start of the conference championship games, UH cannot participate and the ban will have been executed. There will be no ban for next season. However, UH can regain lost scholarships if the infractions committee should reverse its ruling regarding scholarship reductions.

I don’t know how these things work but since the appeals committee sent it back to the infractions committee to re evaluate the sanctions of UH, are they obligated to lessen the sanctions?

I would think that if they don’t rule on the appeal by the deadline, and UH upholds the post season ban for this season, then if the infractions committee was to make a ruling on lessening the sanctions, then they would more than likely lessen the scholarships taken away right?

Not that what we say here will have any impact on how (and when) the NCAA’s COI rules or what UH decides to do, but I have to disagree with the honorable blog host in this case. If the NCAA is still lollygagging come Saturday, UH should “self-impose” the postseason ban for this season rather than have it hanging over the program for another year.
As a wise friend pointed out: The team began the season aware that there could likely be no postseason. If the NCAA rescinds the ban, it’s an unexpected bonus. Also, would it be fair to Mike Thomas, whose decision to redshirt might have been influenced by the situation? And could the same be said for Drew Buggs?
Let’s hope the NCAA provides a resolution in the coming days.
