Dammit when the inbred hicks that make up the Clem(p)son fanbase are making sense, you know the NCAA needs to be relegated to the scrap heap of history....

Makes the level that the Vulvatears cheating at so much funnier, teams got caught doing less and got their heismans and national titles stripped.
Tennessee went balls to the wall to cheat and have 11 wins to show for it!
Champions of Life U!

The entire article is worth reading.....
Pour one out for Oklahoma State. The men’s basketball program at that school has earned a historic distinction—a dubious, thankless, unfair one. The Cowboys are the last high-profile team that earned a postseason ban from the NCAA for rules violations, and quite likely will be the last to serve that penalty.
That ban was handed down in June 2020, then upheld on appeal in ’21. Since then, all manner of renegades and con artists have had their day in NCAA infractions court and come away with something less than the ultimate sanction that was bestowed upon Oklahoma State. Times have changed, abruptly, and the Pokes had the misfortune of being on the wrong side of that shift.
The latest beneficiary of a kinder, gentler NCAA is Tennessee football. It was cited Friday by the association’s Committee on Infractions as having committed “hundreds” of violations in a case that it labeled “one of the worst the COI has seen.” The then head coach, Jeremy Pruitt, personally paid recruits and their families. Several former assistants and other staffers were involved in brazen violations as well. The Volunteers were a veritable rule-breaking factory, seemingly the only thing Pruitt was good at while going 16–19 in Knoxville.
The current NCAA penalty structure requires—not recommends, it requires—a postseason ban in this instance. Yet the COI deviated from established guidelines to avoid it. This is a sign of the times, which have changed even within the past five months.

"Barkin' up the wrong tree"
I'm trying to go to the UGA vs. UT game on November 18th and I want to take my son.
If I squint hard enough at their schedule, I can see 3 losses prior to that game but a lot depends on their performance in the Swamp and if A&M can come in to Neyland and play decent.
On the road against Alabama is a loss.
Tickets are $248 for upper level right now and that's unacceptable. I need that to be close to $100 to make this trip work.

Just walk around the streets of Lnoxville with a few McDonald’s bags filled with confetti and offer it to people on the street in exchange for tickets
