Historically, even with a signed document, athletes were expressly told they were signing with the school and if the coach should leave, they were still bound to their signing. I suspect as more scrutiny has come to the NCAA and the pressure to make changes, the students allowing to transfer, willy...

I heard that too. Good for him. I had heard some Miami people saying that Ohio State was trying to black him being immediately eligible. I knew that wasn't true because they never interfere with a transfer out of conference.

I think that the schools do their best not to know. They want deniability.

Donovan is right... People with money have always sought "work arounds"...be it zoning changes or college admissions...and there are always folks who can facillitate their desires if they are willing to pay. Actually it is the American way and this is small stuff.....just a small outgrowt...

I think they will deal with it the same way they always have....except a little more quietly. There were go betweens in place that were in business to connect the dots that may no longer operate in plain sight. This sounds quite a bit like lobbying in Washington doesn't it? We all know that congress...

I'm surprised at the news media's "surprise" that this could happen. Especially when some of them have probably been involved in this whole thing. To think that a college would except money in exchange for access or a favorable review. Is that how the university system has always worked? T...

I'm not a big Mike Leach fan, but I do like his sense of humor sometimes.

We at least Scott should know the ins and outs of medicare fraud. :lol: The more the government gets involved with things, the more they are abused. The federal government doesn't care if they are getting jobbed because whether or not the care and cost are reasonable has nothing to do with them fund...

Yep

In our years of cruising on our sailboats, I have had to clean too much fish, too early. The smell of fish in the morning does not whet my appetite...the smell of good coffee, sizzling eggs in butter...now that's a horse of a different tune. I've never been a coffee guy, but I get that, when we liv...

We made lobster omelots in the Bahamas...we ate lobster morning, noon, and night...until I never wanted to see one again (I was spearing them from under reef ledges). Finally screamed "Stop"...made the best burger that I ever had, on bimini bread. But I will not have fish for breakfast......

I actually like both breakfasts - sans the log cabin and the coffee. I have had smoke salmon benedict and it is great. I had lobster benedict at a little place in the north end of Boston, that was unbelievable. The place was a hole in the wall close in the north end. 1st time I ever gave over $100 f...

I like omelettes and eggs benedict better than waffles anyway.

That has always been my issue with Pharmaceuticals. If they use tax dollars to fund most or part of the research then why do they need to charge unreasonable rates for the drugs? I would gladly pay 5 times the cost of making my daughters insulin to support research. Maybe in 10 times. But when we do...
