First half of the Rice game... What a joke...
That means ole miss will get a slap on the wrist. Terrible by the ncaa
Our compliance department sucks ASS! This is unreal.
What did Johnny do?
lol. Y'all wonder why I drafted him in the college fantasy league. That's why.
$$$$$$$!!!!!
So this is NCAA suspension? Are we sure it isn't an aTm suspension?
It's an "agreed upon" suspension and "it closes the book on the matter" per the NCAA...
Yet they gave Will Redmond 18 games...
But ole miss will for sure get the death penalty... Un ****ing believable. I hate being a state fan sometimes, ***cough, cough, Redmond, cough***
they are a politically motivated for profit organization that knows who they can run over and who they can't.
So a 1/2 game suspension means the NCAA truly believes he took money. But he only misses half a game. What a joke.
EL. OH. EL.
Does he have to pay anything back?
Hahahahaha...so they admit that he did it, and the proper punishment is half a game? What did Renardo Sidney do again? Shoot somebody point blank in the face?
And how does AJ Green like this? Good grief.
The moral of the story is, don't work with the NCAA...but at the same time, make sure they can't pin anything on you, either. If you work with them and admit it, you get hosed somewhat. If you don't work with them and they can't find anything, you're free. If you don't work with them and they find something, you're completely screwed.
ETA: Ok, so they're claiming he wasn't actually paid. Then why is he being suspended at all?! And why, if he's not being paid, did he suddenly decide to be a pal and sign tons of autographs for memorabilia dealers?
LOL, the NCAA is hilarious. Were this us, they would have dragged this one for 1.5 years to make sure they looked at every possible piece of information. Since it's Johnny Football, they figure they have to decide something quick, so if they can't find anything within a couple of weeks, he's good to go. But let's give him the lightest slap on the wrist ever....for no reason?
Johnny - $10k allegations, 1 half
Will - $3k allegations, 36 halfs
can we appeal the Redmond suspension ?
fire Bracky !!!
The NCAA said they don't believe he took any money.
CHEAT!!! Everybody go CHEAT!!! This is what the NCAA is basically saying. What a joke
Then why the suspension?Quote:

But they only mean for BCS bowl contending teams. If you aren't projected as a 10+ game winner then they can't wait to break one off in you.Quote:

For clarification, according to the press release, the NCAA believes that Manziel did not take money. Why the half game suspension? I don't know. But they believe no money was taken.Quote:

It ain't right. It ain't just. It just is what it is.
Really makes me think of just totally quitting college football. Pro ball is higher quality anyway. This level of bullshit is hard to accept.
It does seem like BS. If he didn't take money, on what basis do they suspend at all? That said, I'm guessing ours was more because it involved a booster and, to a limited extent, a coach. It was acknowledged that there was some money exchanged as well.
In hind sight, we quite possibly could have self-imposed less and had it accepted, but we'd still be subjected to the "repeat-offender" provision, the part that really stings the most.
And this is why I dont expect us to ever challenge for the SEC title- Jackie did it and they ran him out of football with a 2+ year investigation
The money out there now has only made things worse and the gap widen

Which is why I'm less inclined to cry about this being unfair. We aren't children; we all know that Manziel took money. But at the end of the day, it's all about what can be proven. We knew from the beginning that the guy he was signing for wasn't cooperating with the NCAA. All Manziel had to do was deny, deny, deny, and there is really nothing the NCAA can do at that point. This is why Bracky has to go. Bending over for an institution that can only really slam you for stuff you give them in the first place is not a prudent way to protect your organization.Quote:

It's why things are so inequitable. If they actually do get proof on something, they throw the hammer, like USC and Ohio State, two examples where the penalties were probably a little overly-harsh, or at Penn State, where they probably overreached to prove a moral point.
I said all of that to say this...I don't think it really matters who you are. You just had better have your ducks in a row. Ole Miss will still fry if they don't.

So he gets a half game suspension for being an a$$ hole.
I would advocate blatant in your face cheating for MSU if Bracky hadn't already put us on probation.
Freeze and co. were smart to get in while the action's good. If he would just drop the holy roller act I would actually respect the guy.

Double post
Dear Dr. Kennum,the natives are getting restless!!
**This was just reported. Manziel says during his interview with the NCAA he walked in and started off by saying, "I am the best there ever was, I wake up in the morning and piss excellence. Also if you try to bring any suspension against me, I am going to bring the largest lawsuit against the NCAA for lost merchandise royalties, lost future professional proceeds, and sue you for pain and suffering because you guys are retarded." **
Look you guys created me, your welcome for all the money I made all of you last year. So just take your law school sissy ass out of this room and get off of my campus. Hook em.
dude has balls.
something severely lacking in our current athletic department. I'm surprised CDM has been able to mesh with those in charge this long considering his general approach and swagger and how different it is from the "aw shucks" folks running the athletic department right now. It's like a damn episode of leave it to beaver over at the Bryan Building.Quote:
