USC sanctions

[Volfan8282]

Garrett is right now trying to figure out who wants to kill him worse, Tim Floyd or Lane Kiffin.

Why would Floyd care?

I may have to try a few of your connections in looking for a job then, Hat

I'll be glad to help if I can.

SC's compliance guys are supposed to go to San Diego and demand Reggie Bush's stepfather tell them who's paying for his house? I'd love to see how many compliance units do that.

Exactly. They have about as much power as the NCAA to demand that someone turn over records and information.

Ask the NCAA how that worked out for them when they traveled to Memphis to talk to the Tuohy family about Michael Oher. They finally left when they realized that Tuoy wasn't going to talk or give them anything the requested.

This is the second comment in about 10 posts that you've talked about how you are always around elite programs/coaches. I know you are a lawyer, but what exactly do you do. Are you a booster as well, are you UT's own Buddy Garrity?

By the ridiculous definition of a booster the 'AA has promulgated, I'm a "representative of a school's athletic interests" for about 20 schools.

I was just trying to lighten to mood in here a bit but I might take you up on that offer in the future.

To the topic at hand: USC isn't going to get the death penalty SMU received so the Pac-10 better enjoy being able to kick them while they are down. USC has the location and facilities/ability to produce NFL draft picks, so they won't be down long at all from this.

You're sure of that how? Also, I'm sure I've been in a whole lot more locker rooms of elite teams than most. Don't ever remember hearing any conversation about what kind of house a guy's parents were living in at the time.

Being in a locker room of an elite program must mean that you heard all. Surely people wouldn't have conversations without you being present.

Why would Floyd care?

He had SC up and rolling. Now, he's at UTEP. You tell me why he wouldn't be mad as Hell.

If Carroll was there, I would want to see him go all Pete Bell in a press conference. Wonder who would be Happy??

See, that's the great thing about America. Like the parents of players to compliance people, I don't have to tell you anything. As I've said here before: I am but a humble man, but I have many important friends.

I never required you to say anything, I simply asked. In my experience the only people who don't elaborate on who they are are generally at the very top (Mike Hamilton...is that you..haha) or they are nobodys.

I was responding to Eric's post about how players were obviously just sitting around the locker room discussing the extra benefits they were receiving. Keep up.

And this is the same amount that the compliance office can require out of a recruit's family.

I know it isn't college, but my teammates don't talk what kind of house they live in.

Love this...

Fast forward to 4:47....

Nobody. None of the guys who caused this problem are USC boosters.

We will see, I guess.

He's in there. He's just not as high profile as Bush.

I understood the context of your remark. I was just pointing out that you most likely didn't hear every player's conversations while you were in said locker rooms.

No, it's not. They are giving a kid a scholarship. They can ask whatever they want of his family.

We already know. Everyone knows what the allegations are. None of them involve boosters.

Like if his mom was a prostitute?

I'll wait until this thing is released before I believe none of the boosters were involved. It took 4 years for them to get this done, and if in that 4 years they found NO boosters doing anything wrong, I will be COMPLETELY surprised.

Asking and getting anything other than "go to Hell" in response are two different things.
