If you dig deep enough everyone has a questionable act in their past. I am sure you could find something Mack Brown and Les Miles have done prior to Texas and LSU that may not have been to the NCAA's liking. Even the very best in each profession have to bend the rules a little bit in order to be a champion.
Compensating players and questionable acts are a common practice throughout college football's Top 25 teams. On February 26, 1987 there were several coaches of perennial football programs calling SMU boosters to ask what "deals" were in place for certain SMU players who were instantly granted the right to transfer. These coaches wanted to meet or beat the compensation package SMU had with each respective player. Virtually all of those perennial football programs are in the BCS Top 25 right at this moment. To be a winner you must accept coaches with some skeletons in the closet, otherwise you should just decide SMU will be a cellar dweller.
