What's cool is how we've moved from the 15-20 schollie reduction range (remember when TCUN swore up and down it was 9 over 3 ?) to a minimum of 30 over 3 to (please sweet baby Jesus) 40-45 over 3. That, my fellow Bulldog friends, would be glorious!!!Quote:

Not a chance. No way in hell does the NCAA waste 3 plus years to slap them on the wrist. There will be show cause (at least 3) for current staff members, and OM AD is preparing for 30 plus on scholly reductions and a 2 year bowl ban. The reason Bjork and Freeze have not canned anybody is because their actions were known and at times directed by Freeze.Quote:

If the 5 star you go down on ends up signing you win free tuition for a semester. If it's a 4 star you win free books for a semester. Get the #1 player at a position and it's free tuition and books for a year.Quote:

That's not really Spartan-esque, especially for the boys, but it might work.****Quote:

I think after the Tunsil draft night fiasco the NCAA went out to question all of those 2016 4* and 5* commitments that signed. I think the NCAA is loading up to hammer Mississippi more based on how they handled the most recent commits because they cheated after being delivered a NOA.Quote:

The NCAA hates to see them winning and they're digging and digging trying to find ANYTHING, but they haven't found one violation yet. Not one single thing. Didn't you know?Quote:
