I was reading some stuff on OM's pro day and read that Da'moryea Stringfellow was denied to go to the NFL combine due to his past during super bowl 2014. He also was arrested in Jan. 15 in Oxford. I don't remember hearing anything about that, Kelly was denied due to all of his transgressions plus some we may not even know about. With all the NCAA stuff going on and players not even allowed to participate in the NFL combine speaks volumes to what kind of atmosphere is allowed at OM. That is a problem within itself. But, when its been discovered you are buying players, they control you, not the other way around and its obvious to the entire human race what goes on up there.

You mean somehow this didn't get reported by the CL? I'm shocked.**

Seriously, I don't think we've ever had a player get as much as a jaywalking citation that it didn't get reported in that piece of garbage newspaper.

When parents talk about how great of a school OM is and how great of a person HF I immediately know for certain that that parent has cashed their check.

Altercation in a bar, I think I remember it being discussed here.

I can't think of any player who has been at UM that would qualify as a role model to help with recruiting. Every school has their issues but their's is long and torrid.

I hate 'em too, but:

Evan Ingram
Marquiss Haynes
Patrick Willis

They have had some decent guys go through their program. That does not take away from their terrible culture and the obvious enabling they do there for the bad seeds, And they absolutely go out of their way to get those bad seeds if they think it could help them win more. Any time you see a thug get kicked off another team, it seems UNM reaches out before any else.

What YOU should be ASKING...... How many ZERO's are on that CHECK....... $250,000.00 is just one NUMBER I heard on one recruit....

The other question you need to know.... WAS my child given an "ESCORT" to be at my son's beckon call? ugh....
