you don't think there's shadiness going on with players etc right under sabans nose at bama or under meyers nose at florida...clean programs my ***...
i watched the pete carroll interview on real sports where he should have gotten an academy award for the acting he did...it was impressive and rediculous..."i had no clue" what a fraud
this stuff is going on everywhere...whether it be agent contacts or players getting paid by boosters under the table or players driving around in rigs that everyone knows they can't afford...
rampant...and its been going on for quite a long time...and it's not gonna stop...and nick saban isn't the savior...he's a part of the problem just like everybody else...i guarantee it
so nick just shut up...
You're still not addressing the point.... the point is it never comes out about these kids receiving all of these benefits from boosters while playing for a program until they're already gone... moved on to the NFL and sitting there fat, rich and happy...
Then the NCAA decides to hand down punishment on the school and 85 other players that had nothing to do with it.... there are kids playing high school football right now that haven't even committed to USC yet that will have to bear the brunt of what Reggie Bush is guilty of....
A booster giving a kid money or fancy cars in order to get him to come play for a school is cheating... it gives the school a competitive advantage..
However, the school doesn't benefit in any way whatsoever when a kid decides on his OWN INDIVIDUAL CONSCIENCE to accept money or benefits from a SPORTS AGENT.... who has NOTHING to do with the University itself...
This is apples and oranges.... It's time for the NFL to get off their *** and do something to help college football prevent this type of agent/athlete contact, or college football campuses all across the country are going to shut their doors in the face of NFL scouts when they come to evaluate players...
Then all the "NFL fanatics" can ***** and moan to each other about how their front offices keep botching draft picks...
