Got a call from a friend .....NCAA reportedly showed up at a car dealership in

[lamont]

They are going for the death penalty

[DancingRabbit]

Why in the world would a dealership cooperate with the NCAA in any way? NCAA isn't law enforcement and selling cars to recruits/parents of recruits is good for business

Got me to thinking about the fairly new, strict agent law.

This was interesting: "Please note: the Act now includes high school athletes and their scholarship negotiations with a prospective university or college."

If the OP's information is true, it would certainly seem that you're correct, Random.

[Coldsleeve Jr.]

If this investigation is still ongoing, then they might actually get the death penalty.

[RocketDawg]

Remember that check signed by Kimchee's dad for the car?

That's what I was thinking too ... the Nkemdiche's Mercedes. We saw it here some months ago and it looked legitimate.

That's certainly what it appears.

The death penalty may ultimately be the NCAA's best option here because it prevents them from having to set a precedent on the new matrix that will be applied when they likely didn't plan on a school every going this far & thus having to doc 60+ scholarships in order the follow the matrix.

By giving OM the death penalty, the NCAA can deal with smaller cases to build precedent for their new penalty matrix.

Not sure if this makes sense, but it seems plausible.

Cool, Rando now having a change of heart now with regards to the DP because before the Bdork/Freeze/Vitter video you were pretty adamant about them not getting the DP?

I'm not chastising you by saying this, but by you having a change of heart speaks to how seriously 17'd they are.

This ^^^ makes a lot of sense, Shotgun, just because TCUN's transgressions are so widespread and repetitive.

Not to put the cart before the horse, but if they are given the DP, does the SEC give them the boot as well?

Jackson yesterday inquiring about vehicle purchased by a ole miss recruits parent. this shitstorm is apparently still going on. Does anyone have a clue what this is about. I thought Cannon Motors in Tupelo was the car connection.

Cannon Motors bought Deuce McAllister's dealership in Jackson.

[DogsofAnarchy]

If this is over a player they just signed....they may get the death penalty!!

Question: is repeat violator status a charge like loss of institutional control and failure to monitor or is it a penalty that would be given by the COI? Just asking. No particularly reason.***

This keeps getting better and better. I may have to take a 172 over Oxford to assess the damage from above.

Didn't AJ's new ride come from a dealership in Georgia with tsun ties?

[BrunswickDawg]

Yep - dealer in Pooler, just outside Savannah. That's about an hour from me.

[Leeshouldveflanked]

Is it a Dodge Dealership? Went to Newks in Oxford back last Summer a couple of Reb Football players were in there...both drove away in almost Identical Dodge Chargers, complete with a sweet set of Rims....

That might be the only way to get through to Ole Miss as well because I think a lot of their problem is they don't think the NCAA will do it.

Why a central MS kid would go all the way to GA to buy a car just don't make any sense? >-<

[Saying in my sarcastic tone.]

[ScottH]

Not over. May never be over. Unless the NCAA just quits.

Still to go:
1. The unlimited use of a lawyer's plane
2. The pay for play school in Jackson used for three out of state players last summer for certain eligibility
3. Two parents of recruits hired by UM boosters late last fall (following a familiar theme for those idiots, one did NOT sign with UM)

And not just one in GA, but one 11 hours from his hometown?? You can't get much farther east or you fall in the Atlantic.

They wouldn't have to share any info but doing show would prove there is nothing to hide. Don't share info and whether you are guilty or not, it looks bad. Their favorite thing, perception, then takes over.
