"No matter how good you are, you're going to lose one-third of your games. No matter how bad you are you're going to win one-third of your games. It's the other third that makes the difference." ~Tommy Lasorda

"This isn’t stats vs scouts - this is stats and scouts working together, building an organization that blends the best of both worlds. This is the blueprint for how a baseball organization should be run. And, whether the baseball men of the 20th century like it or not, this is where baseball is going."---Dave Cameron, U.S.S. Mariner
This is the time. The real Reds organization is back.

I was wondering when you would come up with that. Didn't Clarett get taken off the field by Geiger? Didn't Ohio State do everything right in handling the eligibility of Clarett? I don't remember Andy Geiger or Coach standing up and ridiculing everyone. I remember them taking Maurice off the field.
You are reaching and desperate now. But that makes sense at this point.

Does posturing after being caught pass as ethics? Don't look now, Santonio Holmes just caught one over the middle (pile-o-cash while playing college ball)....
Institutional control indeed.... :
Personally, I prefer to consider all of the facts before passing judgment and I'm sure OSU fans would reject the absolute smoke=fire standard above being applied to their program just as I'm bristling at the obvious hyperbole in many of your comments concerning Auburn.
One wonders if much of the hyperbole has something to do with Florida and LSU though....

Could be. It seems like SEC teams would rather take their brethern down than see them win. That might be part of why the rivalries are so good down there.
However, as good as the SEC has been on the field in comparison to the Big T(welv)en, they have been even more superior in terms of cheating. About the only things you hear are Rich Rod scheduling practices when there should be none and Illinois every few years.
They'll need more than sources from disgruntled schools who lost out on the Newton sweepstakes to prove anything. I want to see a papertrail of money changing hands before I believe anything happened. I also haven't seen many SEC schools guilty of major violations in the recent past.
If it did happen (still a big if in my mind), there won't be a paper trail. His father's church would be an easy way to hide the money as any payment could be explained away as a donation. If the payment was in cash, it could be explained by an increase by parishioner tithes/offerings.
All of that said, I find it hard to believe that a school would flat out give a kid that kind of money.
