I think it's long overdue.

Sunlight is the best disinfectant. I don't care if others call us whiners.

Need more coverage of this problem and I don't care if we're the ones to raise the issue.

How about exposing those if you have proof and your clean. If you don’t want to do something about then stop whining! Bags my ***! Prove it or GTFO

UM is a private institution who the NCAA will throw the book at for any violations but a state school does the same thing and the penalty is minor if there is one.

Just look at the shot Jimbo got caught doing in his first year and TAMU and nothing happened.

Yeah blah blah.

NCAA doesn’t have it out for Miami more than any other school.

Time for us to play the game too then.
Miami is the most corrupt city in the US. I find it hard to believe we can't out maneuver these bacwood goobers.

The difference is, them backwood hicks know how to stay quiet. They have networks. We get small time and wannabe celebrities with loose lips.

There are no ways around it. We've been fighting this for years. I remember AD Sam Jankovich saying angrily and frustration that the IRS should go after the families who receive thousands in unreported income. I worked at the IRS at the time. I was thinking the same thing. It would require some evidence before that agency would start looking, I guess. (I didn't have anything to do with collections and compliance.)

Which recruit?

I remember the recruit who triggered Sam's pique.

If the NCAA can't (or won't) address it, there's nothing that can be done. I do wish the federal government could get involved. I don't know what the basis for the current FBI investigation into basketball is.

Yeah, Kwame is my frat from FAM, I saw him right before he went in; That’s a real bad situation.
He basically thought he could do what the big boys were doing, wrong. Then he moved the budget out of the ****** bank and it was curtains. Took several people down with him too. There’s a lot behind the scenes people don’t know but his arrogance didn’t help.

Oh super arrogant. Super smart tho. I got to chop it up with him a few times, but at the same time, my presence was partly indicative of some of the things I knew/heard of him. But low key, he was cool peoples.
 
You can’t overlook the fact that UM is one relatively small school in a big city, but that city is in a state that has multiple teams, events, activities, etc.
Bama college football is the only thing going in their entire state and it’s backed by the resources and networks of the entire state. Every system in AL does what it can to protect and promote Bama football, it’s just not a logical comparison.
Bama cheats because they can.

True. Yeah I’m in the same boat, I was just far enough away to stay clear. But to be real honest with you, all that was revealed was because of one female. We’ll chop it up sometime.
