Wisconsin accuses Miami of tampering

They can’t enforce any of this. Even if we did “tamper,” we would challenge their decision in court and it would end up like the Tennessee and Virginia cases.


Here's what is weird about Wisconsin screaming "tampering".

First, they are acting like it was the "tampering" that convinced Xavier Lucas to leave Wisconsin. As if he was SOOOOO happy at Wisconsin that he would NEVVVVVER look at another school, without some insidious "tampering".

Second, if you listen to what Darren Heitner said, he indicated that when Xavier Lucas got back to Florida, he learned his father was sick. Now, I don't think anyone ever claimed it was "life-threatening", but if you've been away from home for 6 months and then you find out things have changed, it might shake up your priorities a bit.

Finally, let's continue to follow this line of inquiry. Let's say you are Xavier Lucas and you decide you would like to move back to SoFla, then you might, as an individual, and of your own accord, choose to reach out to Miami to see if they might be interested in your transfer. Should Cristobal take that call? Perhaps, under a strict reading of the rules, one could say "nah", but that is certainly a far cry from "tampering" in the sense of how the word is normally used.

Might Miami have said "we'd love to have you if you transfer"? Who knows. But this FANTASY about what Wisconsin thinks is "tampering" and the reality of the situation are two very different things.

Pretty sure if the player initiates contact it's not tampering even by the book.
 
Try playing it with tequila. That'll put some pelo on the ole huevos. It'll also likely end with cops and ambulances, but don't let that get in the way of a good time.
We all worked at a restaurant, the next shift we had peeps puking from the fart smells.

I did with moonshine once. No one talked to me for about a year. Cops definitely came lol. I've done some of the dumbest ****. But the stories.......


The cops found me talking to a street light at 3am tripping balls on acid. All I had on was boxers. My pops told em to let my dumbass freeze and shut the door on the officer. Good times
