Title: Re: Miami.... just WOW... Post by: Quasi EVol on August 17, 2011, 03:26:54 EDT C'mon, it was only 72 players - it's not like they're all in on it! :rolleyes:
Title: Re: Miami.... just WOW... Post by: TallVol on August 17, 2011, 03:51:27 EDT This is that story of college recruiting and big time programs that I thought could exist but never really believed it could be as blatant and rampant as this story. As I was reading it, I almost did not want to know. It definately puts the NCAA in a tight spot. Anything short of the death penalty and I think you give other programs a green light to keep pushing the recruiting and booster involvement boundaries if there are any left.

Title: Re: Miami.... just WOW... Post by: Ridge Runner on August 17, 2011, 04:45:18 EDT According to the ESPN article it was alleged that there was cash, cars, jewelry, access to yachts, nightclubs, restaraunts, prostitutes and he even paid for an abortion. Sounds like a one-stop shop. :wow:
Please, oh please, let Drew Rosenhaus be invovled somehow. Title: Re: Miami.... just WOW... Post by: VinnieVOL on August 17, 2011, 09:34:24 EDT For those who like me are trying to figure out what all this talk about Miami is, here is the Yahoo Sports scoop: http://sports.yahoo.com/investigations/news;_ylt=Ak5vqhKfzYL.B6MgSuH3NWs5nYcB?slug=cr-renegade_miami_booster_details_illicit_benefits_081611 (http://sports.yahoo.com/investigations/news;_ylt=Ak5vqhKfzYL.B6MgSuH3NWs5nYcB?slug=cr-renegade_miami_booster_details_illicit_benefits_081611)
What gets me is they did all this, and still weren't very good. :loco: Title: Re: Miami.... just WOW... Post by: MIAUTIGER on August 17, 2011, 03:57:24 EDT :crazy: :crazy: :crazy: Miami is in deep doo-doo. Very deep doo-doo. And at least Yahoo! Sports did some research into this before putting the article out. Good on them for some half-way decent investigative journalism. Title: Re: Miami.... just WOW... Post by: ReVOLver on August 17, 2011, 03:59:56 EDT Miami is in deep doo-doo. Very deep doo-doo. And at least Yahoo! Sports did some research into this before putting the article out. Good on them for some half-way decent investigative journalism. Yahoo Sports is just about the only credible national sports news outlet left, thanks to Wetzel and Robinson. Those guys are top notch. I hope UT is never in their path because they will uncover it all and report what they can prove. They are not racing to be first like everybody else. Title: Re: Miami.... just WOW... Post by: TallVol on August 17, 2011, 04:13:29 EDT Apparently Wetzel was asked today if Yahoo was investigating other college programs. His response "We are done for this week."

Title: Re: Miami.... just WOW... Post by: Ridge Runner on August 17, 2011, 09:12:28 EDT One of the most interesting points in the article was Shapiro's near fight in the press box with the compliance director. That's kind of shocking.
