I posted it in the other "Rumor" thread. This sounded really far fetched but so brilliant that it easily could have been done. I heard that Bama had a booster's son on the team whenever Julio Jones was on the team. They apparently lived together and the booster's kid didn't even start on his high school squad. He was only there to room with Julio and let him use daddy's credit card when he needed something. I'm not sure how this one started, but if true you can't help but be impressed with the thought process behind this one.

I wouldn't trust anything off that site right now, that is the same place that reported Petrino was the top candidate at Auburn and then that Smart was a done deal.

Ha I know as a fact one violation because I saw it. It is a matter of which school it is. How often does Texas give their football players cars? I am seriously asking Texas fans that either went to school their and saw some of the teams whips they can't afford.

That's a tough situation though. If my son ends up getting a full ride to school, I'll buy him a brand new badass car. After all, I have a college savings account for him that he all of a sudden doesn't need. I'll let him spend some of it on anything he wants, just get that full ride!

Untrue. There were improprieties with Julio though on multiple levels.

I thought a Navigator costed more than that haha. Well, he either got the car from LSU or Texas. I promise you, there was no saving up with this family. We always believed it was Texas that sent the car, but LSU went to the big guns and gave the guys girlfriend a full ride.

I disagree.

If you think there weren't at least academic recruiting improprieties with Julio in one of the dirtiest recruiting states in the country, in one of the dirtiest recruiting areas in the state, in one of the dirtiest high schools in the state, and with a kid that scored like a 7 on the Wonderlic OUT of college then you are as naive about the subject as they come.

Go on Virginia Tech's campus, I promise I know what you will find in a classroom. You will see a football player signed up in a class where the teachers are too dumb to catch cheating on exams. He will be sitting aside a sexy chick who is letting him cheat because that's how it works. They get "tutors" who just so happen to take and sit next to the athlete in almost every class.

Every single college is guilty of violations, serious violations, at some point and most are probably breaking the laws right now.

People only get punished when it gets over-top obvious.

Never heard of it, but like I've said before....academic violations in recruiting happens in most school. I must have touched a Morris Claiborne nerve on that one though.....he was the only one to make lower than Julio with a 4 I think. :pound:

Nope, just telling you facts. Teams give out cars, suits, swag, and a diploma.

All teams don't give out that stuff. They may cut football players slack in the classroom, but they don't all get cars, suits, etc.

I refuse to believe.
