The Network- Part 2

Rather creative. The question is will it have been worth it. If the NCAA knows about this then I do not see how they don't get hammered. If Ole Miss slides by on this one with a wrist slap that is going to open the flood gates and college football will not be the same ever again. If all of this is true this is in my opinion extremely bad for college football and we will be on the short track to paying college players not just a stipend but possible contracts etc. I also think if nothing happens and all of this is true it could very well be the final nail in the NCAA's coffin.

Watching that 30 on 30 about USC those folks say it was all worth it and would do it again. So now we have to ask the question does Ole Miss fans feel getting hammered for a few year worth going to the Sugar bowl one year.

They would say it was worth it if they only won 1 game. That's just how they are which is why they should be put out of everybody's misery.

I saw that too, but the situations aren't the same (although the punishments may end up being very similar). USC had almost ten years of unprecedented success. They played in 7 BCS bowls, played for a national championship, and had a Heisman trophy winner. Ole Miss? Three years of success - Birmingham Bowl, Peach Bowl, and one BCS-level bowl (Sugar) in a year that they lost to Memphis and Arkansas and didn't win their division. I don't think Ole Miss has accomplished anything that would make it "worth it." I don't see them being as good this year as they were last year, either.

USC is my second team, they have been since I was a little kid back in the days of Anthony Davis. In all honesty I don't think it was worth it. It was fun at the time sure, a lot of fun. But what makes those things fun over the long haul are the memories. Those are tarnished forever.

Exactly! I would feel the same way. W* does not equal W no matter how much they try to convince themselves.

There is a ton of OM boosters that would do this even with a guarantee of NO RETURN just for the self satisfaction of helping the cause and having a winning program. The main reason OM fans get so wound up over recruiting, seemingly even moreso than actual football games, is that a lot of them apparently have a direct hand in the success of that aspect of the program. So while their fans can't get directly involved in the coaching aspect they apparently regularly get directly involved in the recruiting aspect.

So basically, the average Ole Miss booster is the middle-aged dude in a bar with the semi-hot wife he knows he can't satisfy yet doesn't mind buying drinks for guys hoping one will come home with them to do what he can't do while he watches?
