WHAT!!!! WHOA! Did ESPN finally say something negative about SEC HR policies?
"One of Mike Slive's last duties as SEC commissioner needs to be instituting a rule that prohibits student-athletes convicted of felonies from transferring from one SEC school to another. Players accused of violent crimes like domestic assault also need to be off-limits, at least until the criminal justice system has run its course and they've either been acquitted or convicted. It might be just me, but it doesn't make much sense that players can lose their NCAA eligibility for selling their autographs, but others can transfer and play immediately after being charged with beating a woman.
Taylor's attorney, Kim Stephens, told ESPN.com in February that Alabama wasn't the only SEC school that recruited his client. Unfortunately for Alabama, it was the school that signed him.
And now Saban and the university's administration will have to deal with the ugly consequences of making such a thoroughly stupid decision."
