I'm pretty sure if you are on an athletic scholarship and play football, it has to count towards the football program's 85. The NCAA made that rule years ago to stop Bear Bryant and others from giving out tennis and golf scholarships in order to get around scholarship limits.

Yet even after a concerted crackdown on "oversigning" by the SEC over the past three years, no coach in any league overshot the mark this year with such gusto.

Mal Moore is stepping down as AD at Alabama because of his recent heart issues....

He truly is one of college athletics' good guys.

@bmarcello: Chatted w/ Selena Roberts, author of Auburn allegations story. She says she's working on a "part 2" focusing on AU boosters.

Looks like Auburn could be in some trouble.

This is just part 1100 of Selena Roberts' pathological vendetta against the auburn athletic department. It's kind of like Michelle Bachman writing a speech about the extravagant spending associated with the President's family vacation/pets.

I think some time ago, Auburn must've kicked her puppy or something. But ya, McNeil is an innocent hero about to spend 20 years in jail on principle and Auburn is evil and somehow involved in framing him to kep him quiet.

Yeah Auburn has such a great track record in their integrity and honesty. I'm inclined to let this play out...

Auburn has a better track record of integrity and honesty than most Div 1 schools including some really successful ones in the Big 10.

Selena Roberts has zero credibility on this issue and frankly, it already has played out.
