Oregon?

[shootermcbob]

Can anybody tell me what is happening at the University of Oregon? Supposedly they "paid" for a recruit from Texas...Leche Seastrunk I believe, and the NCAA was investigating. Seastrunk's "handler" admitted so much in an interview.

I am a buckeye fan, and I realize I have a jaded view, but even today, every time OSU football is mentioned the article seems to find a way to include the fact that Tressel lied and was forced out... as he should have been. If you cheat, you get what you deserve.

Wondering why the Oregon story is, has been, or at least seems to me to have been "swooshed" under the carpet? Obvious reference to Nike's money.

OSU has been talked about regarding the programs transgressions for well over a year now, and the Oregon situation isn't even news?

Same with MIami in Florida?

Is this the way folks who may live in the south or west see this? or are these items talked about in your areas daily?

Not trying to start an arguement over who did what? just wondering if the folks in oregon and/or florida see these situations on TV daily?

I haven't even seen anything on ESPN who will sensationalize any story. Just wondering.

All the wires are clear that I can seen.

My money says its all being hushed hushed right now due to the Penn State deal

I just can't believe how quickly and quietly both the Oregon and University of MIami, Fla...scandals/investigations went away.

Makes one wonder.

The Miami scandal has resurfaced. Also, LSU was involved in the same deal with Oregon.

Root beer, where are you located if you don't mind my asking? Here in Ohio I have not read nor heard anything regarding the oregon or miami scandals for months? Did notknow LSU was involved, but supposedly, Oregon "bought" a player's services from a "handler", and the whole thing has just seemed to quietly go away?

Nothing even on ESPN...which still takes every opportunity to mention the Jim Tressel episode every time they mention Ohio State a year and a half later???

I actually first saw the article on ESPN on the college football page, but now I cannot find it. I looked through the ACC blog and found this: http://www.miamihera...-golden-im.html It's a different allegation from the scandal involving the booster. This allegation has to do with Al Golden having knowledge that one his coaches was violating recruiting rules.

In another news, have anyone seen this? http://www.al.com/sports/index.ssf/2012/07/pittsburgh_sports_agent_accuse.html?utm_source=teammash Me thinks this guy is an idiot. If he got "dirt" on a program like Alabama for cheating, why didn't he blow the whistle to the NCAA when he first got the dirt? Just because one says something doesn't make it true. For instance, I'm surrounded by naked Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders.

I believe you are surrounded by naked Dallas Cowboys's cheerleaders...So am I
