Yahoo! Sports is still chasing the USC story...

[Adelpiero]

was looking forward to some major spin, and bullshit from smickity, but JOn fucking tarded the thread up.



booo hisss

The dude got money. Duh. The Impala out front sitting on 20" chrome dubs shoulda told ya. Or was it the ice hanging off his ears? Just like LenDale white's ice.

Doesn't make it right, it just is. The only question is the degree of is.

I still think this goes away, but at worst Reggie coughs up the Heisman. I really doubt the program gets penalized.

the only thing i think will happen to usc, is they lose 04 championship, playing with a non-eligable player.

and he loses the heisman.


he was not a booster or coach, so why should the program suffer punishment now, from a rogue agent and a player willing to break the rules from 2004-5?

While I'm not sure if they will be or not (sup, your 2005 PAC10 Champions, the Oregon Ducks), but they certainly should be.

There's the whole "institutional control" thingy...and the institution made no attempt to keep any. Petey is going to play dumb, but anyone who has ever watched a USC game knows dude is anything but dumb. He SHOULD have known what was up, if he didn't, and the program SHOULD be severely punished.


That's not what's going to happen, but what should happen.

That would be a double-standard, though -- USC was merely following Ohio State's business model. They need to put a salary cap on player payroll at those schools.

from what has been stated in the press, Lake didnt contact Bushs family until the Summer of 95 which should leave the 94-95 title safe.

I still dont see how anyone can expect a coach to keep tabs on what every single player was driving in, that he is responsible for every players parents and step parents is just silly

Bragging and MENTIONING are 2 completely different things.

Saying you know more than 99% of "everybody out there" isn't bragging?

You seriously want to stick to that?

If that isn't bragging, and merely "mentioning," would you care to mention exactly how you know this to be true?

Please, justify how exactly it is you seem to know more than almost 100% of the entire population about sports. Including this board, of course. That's quite the fucking statement, you realize this, yes? I mean, that's a fucking GRANDIOSE thing to say...that you know more about sports than virtually every living being "out there."

Shit, it's one thing to make a statement like that just for the fuck of it, for smack purposes, and all. It's entirely another thing to make a statement like that and actually believe it to be true. Which you must, you know, since you're "mentioning" it and all.

All the while you don't know who Kim Dunbar is. Damn that 1%! Always comes back to bite you in the ass somehow, doesn't it!

Funny. Just too fucking funny.

What, was he Kerry Collins' and Ki-Jana Carter's agent too? Errr... I meant Tommie Frazier and LP's agent too... Honest mistake.

Much love, Dave. :D

Also, if you guys could stop your slap fight long enough to get back on track, it'd be great.

Personally, I think you're all a bunch of fucking cheaters. Now, if you'll excuse me I'm going back inside for a while...

Dins,

I hear what you are saying. I just don't think they'll be able to prove USC had knowledge. If you tell me that they should have had knowledge, I'd tell you that Oregon, tOSU, ND, UM, etc. and etc. also should have knowledge.

A standard of "should" is an impossible policy for the NCAA to enforce nationwide. Actual knowledge is another matter. I don't think that actual knowledge will be proven.

Just my uninformed opinion.

[MgoBlue-LightSpecial]

Sorry skull, but watching JON twist and flail is a lot more entertaining than this long, drawn out story.

Completely disagree. That goes along with institutional control. Doesn't every major college university have some type of NCAA compliance officer on campus? What do they do?

[Dinsdale]

Don't get me wrong...there's a whole buncha glass-house dwellers up in here. I'm not so naive to think Swooshy isn't up to all kinds of dirty deeds...sup, Malik Hairston.


But...from the way it sounds(and I wasn't there), it sounds(you know, that "tone" that text makes) like Bush was flaunting the goods around campus. IF this is the case ("if" being a big word), then a reasonable, responsible coach and AD would at least be suspicious, and uphold his responsibilities to do at least a little inquiring, and report it to the NCAA if he had reasonable suspicions.

It's not like Petey isn't at least a little familiar with his big stars' home lives, to an extent. The all of a sudden, one who had yet to display any great financial means comes rolling up in a customized late-model car?

C'mon, now.

I don't know where the NCAA draws the line between "lack of institutional control" and "pure negligence," but it's got to be right around there, somewhere.

But if they suspend USC for a couple of years for being dirty, they'd have to suspend tOSU for about 50...which ain't gonna happen.

[Jimmy Medalions]

Dins, I agree with everything you said.

please don't use that as a sig...

[Dinsdale]

Ain't like I was bringing any groundbreaking insider-knowledge to the table. Could have just as easily been posted by Marcus Allen*.
