NCAA Wraps Up Four-Year Investigation Of USC (Yes, Today)

 Well, this is interesting (no, not "convenient" or "suspicious", just "interesting"):  That neverending probe into behind-the-scenes activity at Southern California? Wrapped up, according to a Yahoo! Sports report. But please don't make the mistake of thinking this is going to lead to a speedy revelation or resolution of the situation. Looks like miles to go yet:

Sources familiar with the investigation have told Yahoo! Sports that the NCAA’s Committee on Infractions will meet from Feb. 19-21 to address what investigators uncovered at USC. According to typical NCAA procedures, if sanctions are necessary, they will be determined and then made public via a news conference within six-to-eight weeks of the February hearing.

This news drops mere hours after Pete Carroll's official resignation, but don't expect to hear much out of Heritage Hall about the matter.  A cheeky reminder from ESPN:  "USC has never acknowledged an NCAA investigation, notice of allegations or a pending hearing."
