Well not to be pedantic about things...well actually to be pedantic about things... using SEC can refer to more than the narrow definition of the SEC office itself. It can actually refer to the collective group of schools, football programs and fanbases. I guess that I could have simply typed out every school's (excepting Vanderbilt's) name as the sentence's subject but figured people would understand the difference.

And yes, the SEC culture encourages cheating and has been at the forefront of new and unique ways of cheating in football recruiting that make the innovations of our space program seen rather bland and uncreative in comparison. I'm not exactly breaking any new ground here.

how many of these schools were about three-quarters through a season that was on a direct path to the national title game?

supposedly AU knew about the investigation back in July.

at which point, not only were the not three-quarters in route to a NC, but other than Herbstreit, no one picked them to even win the division.
So it's not like they knew just how much could have been at stake by sitting the kid.

I love how the SEC is "one" when it's beneficial for a single program or their fans to mention it as such, but as soon as one of their "brothers" is accused of some sort of wrong doing the fingerpointing and "they deserve whatever they get" routine comes out en masse. Incredible.

And that's different from, oh, say, how the average poster on here deals with Michigan in what way?

Yeah.

Giving money to a recruit's father* to get him to come to your school would really be breaking new ground. :slappy:

No, but giving money to his father by disguising it as donations to his church-- incidentally, making that slush money tax deductible in the process--would be rather ground breaking, wouldn't you agree.

Hell, this guy covered two of the Southeast's holiest of grails in one stroke: buying a football recruit and not paying taxes.

Jeezus. Laundering payola to a recruit via donations to his father's church. If the SEC would put half the effort towards their actual academics as they put into cheating in football, they'd corner the market on Nobel Prizes every frickin' year.

Yeah, and talk about a win-win situation, you get the recruit and the donation to the church is a legitimate charitable tax deduction.
