i hope i am not beating a dead horse .. but read this crap

Oklahoma's compliance department investigated the circumstances by which tailback Adrian Peterson bought a car and then returned it several weeks later but determined the arrangement did not violate NCAA regulations.
"We didn't do anything wrong," McRae said. "Is it standard operating business practice? Yes, it's standard operating business practice."
Oklahoma also investigated the employment of football players by the dealership but found no violations.

This is stilly. Surely we have enough alums to cheat within the rules. I saw we push it to the limit. Anything we can get away with - do.

Hell Yes, couch'em... I have been around the campus for 24 yrs now and I know that are tons of RICH alumni who can do what your talking about..
Actually, Rich smart alumni who can do it and know how to cover it up..

If you are within in the rules and push to the limit, how do you construe that as cheating.

really-I always thought we had some of the dumbest, bumbling alumni involved in the recruiting scandals that made Nixon's Watergate Plumbers look like seasoned professionals.

I have to disagree, Stallion, If I recall correctly, the alumni were fine; it was the people employed by SMU athletics - Hitch, Collins, Parker, Larson, etc. - that were the bumbling fools who got caught.

Does the name Sherwood Blount mean anything to you?

[Pool Boy]

I guess I am really splitting hairs here, but Sherwood was NAMED - as was Clements and others - in the investigation and was certainly involved, but he was not one of the ones who got "arrested" at the scene of the crime. Isn't that a fair parallel to the Watergate reference? After all, we know stuff like that had been going on a long time - witness the NCAA basically setting up a branch office on campus. But nobody had been able to "get the goods" until Henry Lee et al fumbled the ball - I mean, the envelope.
