    Alabama also has a history of shady recruiting and roster management tactics. Sure, people don't like them because they're good, but they're also not liked because they're dirty. 

    If this exact same thing happened at Michigan I'd be angry at our local beat riders for hiding the story and protecting the university, appalled we kept a coach like Zach Smith around as long as we did while knowing what type of person he is, and I'd want Harbaugh fired for what was reported by the independent investigation and the attempt to cover up the scandal. 

    Everybody uses shady recruiting tactics. Don’t be a crybaby Woody.

    What a very SEC thing to say. It is very very much more widespread and prevelant at certain institutions.

    I'm also all for paying the players btw. Compensate them for the millions they earn the university. If if is a free market Michigan has three funds to compete with anyone. At the very least they should be able to make money for their likeness, sell autographs, and yes, sell trophies for tattoos. The NCAA is a sham of an organization that will never seriously investigate any potential cheating if it hurts everyone's ability to make money. 

  • Here are some things you are going to have to live with Woody:

    A. Urban Meyer ain't going nowhere.  Deal with it and STFU.

    B. TLUN (Those Losers Up North) are going to continue being TLUN.

    C. You are a troll on here as much if not more than Ghoolie is.

    D. Repeat A, B, C

    Obviously nothing said will change your mind, and that is fine. All I will say is that none of the back information wouldn't hold up in court. It's all hearsay. You could be exactly right, or it could just be rumors and speculation. 

    I'm sure one of the best coaches in the generation, or heck use Harbaugh has a lot more texts than I do. And I doubt I have texts back over a year. At some point they get erased.

    I mean, it isn't hearsay. It was part of OSUs report. And sure, OSU investigated OSU and found OSU not guilty. So that investigation may have not gone as deep as it should have. But if they're reporting something negative towards OSU, it probably happened. 

    Unless you've changed phones and not transfered your texts, you have texts back older than a year. You need to manually delete them or change a setting otherwise

    You're also not a public, state employee subject to the FOIA. Big difference

    It's not that my mind is biased and can't be changed. It's that all of the evidence, includjithst reported by OSU, points towards Meyer deleting his texts and destroying evidence as soon as he was worried about an investigation.

    Props to the OSU student paper for trying to get the texts because we sure know the OSU beat writers weren't going to do anything.

    But it is hearsay. An investigative report heard that he asked this person a day before, and a newspaper tried to obtain copies but could not know when they were deleted.

    Without direct evidence and testimony that is exactly what it is.

    Again, not saying he did or didnt do anything wrong. But everything needs to be looked at in the same light.

    The exact reason I pointed out to Gip that there were people saying he should have been fired.

    And of course he has a different employer, but if the settings were different on his phone or didn't get them transferred doesnt make him shady. It's a possibility. And whether you want to believe it or not, at some point old texts can be deleted. It all has to do with settings and physical memory. That is why there are settings on a phone for lock messages. It's so they DONT GET DELETED

    It is not the messenger, it is just your warped biased message that is at issue

    Yes the NCAA is. So why are you still crying about it? 

    It is a free market now. You don’t need any “if.” You wanna win? Go spend the money you’re so patting yourself on the back for.

    I think he is talking about giving money to the players, which you cannot spend money doing now.

    But, what he says about TULN and their boosters having money and spending it, is true.  The dog and pony shows they take to Europe each year I understand are paid for by boosters, and, it is, apparently, permissible.   Can't blame them for doing it if they are allowed. 

    Though, I only question: how is a trip to Europe paid for by boosters not an extra benefit, but buying them something something off the rack....clothing or something...or even giving them a car to use if paid for by a booster,  is.

  • A trip to Europe over spring break has an educational value

    Pryor's Nissan 350 did not

    But we've done this back and forth before and I know you'll stay on your anti Michigan at all costs kick

    You are so fuyucking stupid that you can't even read or comprehend what I said.  I said more power to them if they can "get away" with giving these trips to Europe. 

    No one here has traveled more than me I suspect, and I know that travel has educational value. 

    But, the fact is, these kids don't see it that way.   If they were on Wheel of Fortune or Let's make a deal, and you gave them a choice of a trip to Europe, or a new car....what do you really think they would say is more beneficial to their lives and to their education?   A new car, that's what. 

    I can tell you from my own experience that having a good, useful, funcitioning automobile was actually much more useful to my education than was my trip to Europe.   The car got me to and from class every day, and to and from work. (I had to work my way through school).

    Of course, maybe it is different for someone who is on full scholarship, living in dorms, getting free room and board etc., not having to work a job.

    A trip to Europe for almost anyone is a dream vacation of a lifetime. Education? Yeah exchanging dollars for euros. 😆

    Now pryor is still a genuine azzhole, always will be. Cars for jocks and their families has gone on since I was in high school 50 years ago and way before that.

    These rivalry gotcha games can go on almost that long also.

  • Urban looking like a fool again.  Can’t someone tell him saying nothing is better than trying to side step the lies.
