LOL at Hugh Freeze. It's like Bernie Madoff "looking forward" to his day in court. :w00t:

Our Pearl/hostesses issues will probably go down as the last time the conference ever sanctioned a member program.

What about all those expensive cars that the Bama players drive? That seems more egregious and problematic than anything that Ole Miss is being accused of doing.

You should call up the folks in Indy and let them know about it. They obviously need an inquiring mind such as yours to get the ball rolling.

I'm sure they already know. Obviously, they choose to look the other way.

If Bama gets caught cheating again they could be in line for the death penalty, and that's a case the NCAA is NOT willing to make, it's much easier to pick on Ole Miss than go after a powerful college football program like Alabama.

There is no line for the death penalty. It will never be done again, at any level.

You are probably correct about that. Giving a school the death penalty affects too many other schools in the conference and it will likely not be done again.

So we're not even in the repeat violator window anymore? That would mean we are not, in fact, in line for the death penalty.

It's like I can't even trust you, gunner.
