This could get ugly

This could get ugly

Especially if it reaches Miles at LSU.

What about T Boone Pickens?

Won't even click on any more of these stories for several reasons...

1. It happens at every school in the country.
2. The more people that click on the link the more news outlets will demand similar stories...err witch-hunts.
3. If these kids get a little scratch on the side so be it. They've more than earned it.

I still think the best idea ever pitched was killing high school and college athletics entirely. Let clubs form. Let the NFL create its own developmental league. Lets get athletics out of academics entirely.

Until then, without federal oversight, the benefits of cheating will far outweigh the burden of punishment.

That plan has merit.

Starting to look like Dohrmann may have listened to the wrong kid. ESPN reporting several details from the story don't match up to facts given to them by Ok State. Kid got a bunch of dates and things wrong, said he had 2 degrees from OK State when he has zero. Said Tatum Bell and he flunked a class that Bell wasn't even enrolled in,he'd already withdrawn from school.

That is the downside to these exposes, it can be hard sometimes to determine is the kid telling me the truth, or is he just mad at the school.

Better yet, is the school telling the truth? We already know, from past incidents, that Saban and Miles are really good at fibbing.

Just what the NFL needs.. More lawsuits from injuries.. This time from minors..

Im not poo pooing your idea.. I just think that would be the major drawback for the NFL to get behind that idea..
