OT: Tau exchange with reporter

Looking at this objectively, how could you be mad that these kids are selling their talents to the highest bidder?

I’d be willing to say that pretty much everyone on this board does the same exact thing in their own respective careers. Soo how can you blame these kids? ITS CAPITALISM! A huge reason why our country is so great.

Where do I have a problem with it? I have a problem with it all being under the table and “illegal” from a NCAA standpoint.

I’m totally okay with these kids getting paid, it’s the right thing to do! Sell your talents to the highes bidder! BUT this should all be out in the open and not being blantantly hidden from the average fan like it is today. That is the worst part of it.

No one has an issue with the payment. They have an issue with how it happens and how unfair the process is. Nevin Shapiro was taking kids to dinner, strip clubs, etc. and we had a 3 year cloud over us. Bama literally buys houses for kids and moves families, gets popped for using "deer spray" and no one says a word.

His dad said he still beats him when he makes mistakes so maybe that’s why Tua is gunshy.

Sabag is so brazen at this point that he doesn’t even try to hide that he moved Tua’s entire village to TuKKKaloo. They’re on Gameday all 400 of them talking about having a Luau at the Walmart parking lot.
 
Ya this sports toast. Ratings will start to show it.

I'm convinced the NCAA and Bama are in cahoots. If the average college football fan knows about bagmen, the NCAA knows the names of the bagmen. You're naive if you think otherwise.

Not only that, the NCAA decides who they allow to cheat and who can’t.

Remember when Hugh Freeze started racking up top 3 classes (stealing players from Bama)?

NCAA immediately put a stop to that. It’s a joke and why I don’t watch games anymore.

I only watched 6 or 7 Miami games this year. Before that I hadn’t missed a game since 1999.

They’ve destroyed CFB.

Mark Emmett hired Nick Saban at LSU and Nick Saban has the majority of the SEC coaches within his coaching branch.

And they make lots of money

The SEC is making lots of money but overall college football attendance is going down and they can’t even sell out the NC game without huge reduction of ticket prices. If CFB continues at its current pace it will wind up being a regional sport.....

I look at this in the eyes of a diehard fan, but reversing roles and being one of these families and kids, that’s a whole lot of freaking money.

I agree but will probably take a good 20 years before this happens

BAGS


Thing is if they pay players legally we can pay kids but this will still go on because they will give them money on the side regardless......this is unfixable the only way is the fbi or a media source blows it up or a snitch

No one cares that they cheat

💯💯💯💯💯

Only thing they care about in regards of cheating is getting caught. And they will still find a way around it.

Nah, schools like Michigan and Ohio State have a tremendous amount of pull. I don’t think they will be silent for very long. If the ratings suck for the NC game it’s going to cause problems....

Go watch the game day segment about the father (Polynesian) controlling every aspect of the families decisions.

Dad has always used the belt for punishment. Kid isn't going to say a whole lot after his blunder in bringing this out during the season.
 
He's about to play in his 2nd Natl Championship game in as many years....Clearly his dad is an idiot for not sending him to USC

Once they allowed Cam Newtons dad to take $175k on his behalf this was destined to continue to be the issue.
 
Its apparent that the brazenness and scope of the cheating have gotten out of control, while the NCAA does less and less. However, the good news is that because its gotten so bad, coaches, reporters and our D$, are beginning to talk about it openly, and that could well be the beginning of the end.
 
As soon as Clemson started racking up #1 classes and snagging 5 stars it was obvious they were cheating. These kids didnt even know who Dabo Swinney was at that point. Then Dwayne Allen says going pro would be a paycut...still nothing

The whole family moved to Tuscaloosa and got jobs to be with him in college. You think if I was getting my econ degree on a two bit academic scholie they would move my family to be near me where they would all be gainfully employed? No. I would be crammed into a muggy dorm room while Jughead the IT major jerked off under the covers to Massive Muff ****. The fact that it’s so blatant and they do stories on Tua’s family is what’s so amazing.

Massive Muff...hmm.

New one on me. Have to look it up.
