Another update on FBI corruption case..

Just need to be careful when polishing your halo. All I’m saying.

I don't think he was halo polishing, but I agree that Barnes should stay mum on this for a good while. Never know what skeletons may have taken up residence in his closet.

We aren't NC; the NCAA has no problem throwing the book at us for any perceived infractions. Our coaches get multi-year show causes for lying about cookouts.

I’m probably in the minority but I think student athletes should get paid. Personally I don’t have an issue with any student athlete that takes money, especially football players.

Just my 2 cents

I like what Ron Slay said yesterday. While enrolled in school individual players shouldn't get all the money but for certain things. if #35 jerseys sell of the 5-10% that could be given to the athletes. The entire team splits it equally. I personally believe make the # like 7 %. Then give the equal share of it but only like 5% of their individual cut at the time. That should help them get through college. The other 2% think like a 401k. It goes to a fund they can't touch until they graduate. That would dangle another carrot for every player to get their degree.

This also eliminates the issue that some have said title IX will rear it's head saying if you pay one athlete then you have to pay them all. If someone is willing to pay a golfer or women's swim team then their team splits it. Obviously the stipend to all athletes equally no matter the sport is not feasible. A golfer shouldn't get the same as a football player. We don't tune in TV's or fill stadiums to watch some golfer.

and schools will quickly just start selling un numbered jerseys and the sew or iron on numbers separately.

To be fair to our coach... He said a lot more than that... I think just putting that quote out there like that alone is misleading. I don't think it was intentionally misleading but nonetheless.
