Former Auburn Player Stanley McClover

Another possible LSU payoff to a recruit:

Willie Lyles asked Texas A&M for $80K

Willie Lyles, a Texas-based football trainer who is under NCAA investigation after receiving $25,000 from Oregon, told Texas A&M it had to "beat" $80,000 if it wanted to sign star recruit Patrick Peterson in 2007, a former Texas A&M coach told ESPN on Wednesday.

Van Malone, the former cornerbacks coach at Texas A&M, told ESPN that Lyles phoned him in 2007 after Peterson had visited the College Station campus.

"A few days after the kid's visit, Will calls and says, 'If you want this kid, there are other schools that want this kid as well. They're willing to pay a certain amount of money, around the $80,000 mark,'" Malone said. "He said that was something we were going to have to beat as a university to be able to obtain the services of this kid."
Peterson originally committed to the University of Miami but ended up signing with LSU. Now a junior, he has declared for the NFL draft and is the No. 1 player on ESPN draft guru Mel Kiper's Big Board.

Maybe if they paid him a little more the whole Patrick Peterson for Heisman thing might've worked out.

I don't know about the rest of you but the biggest bunch of bullshit I have seen in this thread, and it's not even all that close, is the request for $20 AND a case of Natty.

Marketing 101-You can't spend a lifetime building your brand as a provider of dirty deeds done dirt cheap then start asking for premium prices just because your overhead went up.

Jax, I have to disagree. The bullshit in this thread is that McClover made his allegations, people here on this board understood the time frame of his visits to Ohio State, and nobody has yet mentioned SusanZ. :wink2:

I bumped the SusanZ thread in the Open Discussion forum about four days ago hoping at least somebody else here made the connection, and nobody did. :(
