OT: Is It Happening? Alabama in Hot Water

[CDWright40]

Anytime there is a cheating scandal in any sport you can be certain UNC will be involved. It’s amazing they have to cheat to be that bad at football and it always surprises me how they walk away clean and how @JBCanes-NC continues to root for them with such a passion.

If the feds make a case against these schools, then The spotlight of the media and federal evidence presented will make it impossible for the NCAA to ignore.

 

[VA-CANE]

I disagree that it will be a bunch of nothing. The FBI is involved and we all know uncle sam wants his money. This cash is getting exchanged tax free. If they would have broke off the government with a percentage they wouldn't be in this position.

I could not agree more. They certainly are not concerned about stopping it. They just want there cut!!!!

Penn State is under the spotlight in this story, and despite being under probation and recently sanctioned, nothing will happen to them.

You spelled @Dr.L.ThugU wrong

 

[Canes2082]

Lol the only hope is the person in charge of the investigation hates Alabama

 

[pacusmc]

Saban right now

 

[SoFlaSmitty]

I tell you again, this ain't gonna stop until you put a couple of recruits' family members behind bars for tax evasion....
... only then would the squealing start.

This wont happen as most of the players are now making millions and will just have to pay the back taxes on it. Only reason government is even involved is because they arent getting their cut.

But we need to bring back butch.

This **** would be all over espn if it were Miami.

 

[LPK2006]

"Cooperating witness Louis Martin “Marty” Blazer testified Tuesday that he paid between several hundred and several thousand dollars each to family members or associates of football players from Pitt, Penn State, Michigan, Notre Dame, Northwestern, North Carolina and Alabama between 2010-14. "
Is it wrong that my first thought was that Pitt, Northwestern and UNC are going to take the fall while PSU, Michigan, ND and of course Alabaga skate?

 

[Poptimus]

Saban could be caught red handed on video, handing over stacks of cash to recruits on a yacht while strippers he's paid for suck off recruits...

...and not a god**** thing would happen. You know it, I know it, we all know it. So let's pump the brakes on any celebrations just yet.

 

[miamicanephins]

Might be one of the reasons Enos bailed on alabaga...

 

[RedPill Stepdad]

They will skate. Alabama is above the law. Even the Feds can't touch them.

I hope u don't really believe Alabama is above the Feds. If the Feds wanted to they could end the Alabama dynasty overnight, literally.

 

[MainLineCane]

Didn’t LSU already reinstate that basketball coach that was paying recruits?

Well it was part of his job description ....so why not?

 

[Canesfan1899]

I'll believe it when I see it. They could have Nick Saban on video handing out duffel bags and they would walk.

BIG IF

I bet Jeff Sessions wouldn't recuse himself from any Bama football investigation

If I was a US attorney working this, I'd want to go after juniors declaring. Work with the IRS and FBI to deminstrate declared low/no income while showing evidence of benefits and unpaid taxes. Threaten to file a charge in April just before the draft. That's leverage. Get the kids to become corroborating witnesses in exchange for immunity. Get names of bagmen, warrants for surveillance based in CI affidavits, and go to town.
