I expected the standard violation of team rules but he's suspended indefinitely pending an investigation into an alleged violation of NCAA rules.

Probably flashing his goods on twitter or facebook.

He got what he deserved.........These kids who think they are special and entitled because they can carry a football, hit a baseball, or shoot a basketball need to be held accountable for their actions....


They are getting a free ride on education, meals, expenses, and medical care......




And I don't want to hear about the money they make the universities.....They know this coming in....A lot of them get money under the table, cars, kickbacks of all kinds.....




I say kick them out of school and let them try to earn a living in the real world....Give the scholarships to real students who need the help and help them become productive members or our country........






I am fast becoming sick of all sports that represent college and pro...






Give me Little League and high school sports anytime...






That is all......

Heismanpundit.com had Ameer in 5th after the MSU game.

That site has predicted the finalists correctly each of the past 4 seasons in a row.

When interviewed he said that he thinks Ameer still makes it to NY just based on the opportunities he has left on the schedule.

Now his chances improve quite a bit as he is the #1 RB available.

I know one fuckin thing.....if I was a college athlete likely going pro I wouldn't seek 1 penny. Wouldn't bitch or moan about a thing.

Millions of dollars is coming your way because a college was willing to let you go to school for free and play football?! That is the life right there.

Right there with you, HP.

Life is just not fair. Hell, us fans devote so much time to writing on forums and upping our fan level, ultimately rubbing off on other fans and upping their fan levels, which in turn drives in ticket sales, TV views, clothing sales, kids attending the University, etc...

WHERE'S MY CHUNK OF THE PIE???? WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS BULLSHIT?!!! I'M ON HERE BUSTING MY ASS DRIVING IN MONEY AND THE UNIVERSITY DOESN'T GIVE A SHIT!

So you guys don't think you should be able to profit off of your likeness or signature?

Personally I would feel like a phony if I signed something and then sold it. You're kinda selling yourself out there. I have more pride than that.

Not only that, but if I was ever that famous I'd want someone to take me out back and put a bullet in my head......cuz your private life is over with. Once you're that famous, nothing you do anymore can be done without someone knowing about it.

I'd rather someone pay me for doing work. If I was getting my tuition paid for (which cost about $100,000) then I would be getting paid PLENTY!!! I wish to God someone would have paid my tuition.....my life would be amazing right now. Instead I'll be paying it off for the next 5 years of my life. I also wish someone would have paid for all my food and given me a stipend every month while I was in College. That would have been amazing as well.

But bottom line is, whatever the rules are is what I'm for. They don't make the rules for no reason.
