There's a LOT more SEC money than there is ACC money...for all "purposes". In fact, SEC boosters are MUCH better than ACC boosters at concealing how they use their "under the table" money. Just look at those idiots at UNC.
One more point, with the possible exception of Vandy and Florida, SEC schools don't care if they get caught cheating by the NCAA as long as they win national championships in football. They know the NCAA sanctions will be temporary and largely toothless, so why should they worry? But, you have to catch them first.

Just my opinion, but Florida is not any better than the other major NCAA offenders in the SEC, they're just better at managing information that could prove to be damaging.
We can criticize dirty programs, but we can't say much about player arrests. I understand Chompy's point there.
So the major violations you found were from ~20-30 years ago?
