I live in XII country, the conspiracy theorists think that XII is protecting Baylor because they can't really survive in a world where they have one decent team (OU) and they need to get to the next TV deal with at least 2 and probably 3 decent teams (Texas,OU, and ???)  Putting Baylor on some sort of suspension would derail that to the point where you are looking at relying on a TCU or Tech team that lately just seems happy to be there.  And that is running with assumption that Texas will get things going again.

 

[Don't Noonan]

Willie Lyles agrees with you.

Butthurt Texas fans like yourself didn't appreciate anyone recruiting in Texas.  In the end, the NCAA did not find much with Lyles and no major ramifications much to your dismay.

More fun for Ole Miss - this clown (one of their few signees this year)

Ha, Screw Ole miss

Just to pile on OM cause its fun...

So there really is a "tape."

Unfortunately, Lewis' mother on that tape doesn't ask Ole Miss for money and doesn't mention other schools.

Its nice to know OM does actually record conversations with parents of recruits just to use for future black mailing.  I feel certain that won't be used against them in future recruiting battles. 

I was clearly wrong on Freeze stepping down on Monday, but it seems imminent.  I don't think he coaches another game.

Did something happen to Oklahoma State that I don't know about?

Mayfield really half-assed this whole running away from the cops thing, and got absolutely destroyed in the process

[The Commish]

So....Saban's pissed that the rules for summer camps were changed?  Seriously?  

"And we pass some rule that everybody has to live with, or some law, where the consequences mess up a lot of other things. We do it all the time. We're doing it right now. The NCAA is doing it. We're going to change the way we have summer camps. We can't have high school coaches working summer camps. I mean, it's the most ridiculous thing that I've ever seen. It is what it is and whatever they do, they do.





"So we say we don't want third-parties dealing with players. So we're not going to let the high school coach bring a guy to camp, but some third-party guy can bring him to camp now. Makes no sense at all. But all the people who have common sense, they don't say anything about it. But the people who scream the loudest will get the thing changed and it'll mess everything up. That's the way it goes. The way it goes in the world, politics, just the way it goes.".

All we need is a Harbaugh tweet and spring events will officially be under way

Stay Classy Dickhole!!

A PSU Trustee named Albert Lord said the following about the victims of Sandusky: "Running out of sympathy for 35 yr old, so-called victims with 7 digit net worth," Lord said in an email sent on Saturday. "Do not understand why they were so prominent in trial".

 

[Emerson Biggens]

Stay Classy Dickhole!!

Wow, that's despicable 

 

[Jayded]

Further proof that even the ####### Penn State board is more upset they got caught than what actually happened there. It's reprehensible and unbecoming of an institution of their size and prominence.

 

[psychobillies]

Hmm.

 

[The Commish]

No talk about the rule changes?

 

[psychobillies]

No talk about the rule changes?

I really don't see how the early signing period helps, or even what problem it's trying to correct.  

All good with 10 coaches though.   

Time to fire up a 2017 thread? 

Does @Capellaeven watch CFB anymore?  I hear he's got a lot on his plate these days.

 

[Capella]

Oh buddy I watch a LOT of college football. 

In fact, I just watched my DVR copy of FSU-Syracuse the other day. 

 

[Capella]

I can start a thread. Don't want to step on any toes.
