It ain't just the SEC - think back to the Miami Hurricane teams of the late 80's- and all of the 90's....

Watching the NFL game last night, I think the announcers said that the 2001 Miami team had 17 (SEVENTEEN) 1st round draft picks. That is amazing in itself.

And, the Miami players were flaunted their status all over Miami - they brought the word "thug" to college ball. Hell, those players were treated better than any of the NFL guys in town, and every one of them were underage - in strip clubs & bars.

Miami was cheating on the level of SMU but got off lightly considering. They suspended the drug testing so that Irvin could still play as he was constantly on the nose candy. I've never cared for Miami just due to the image they put out during that time and how they acted. I know had someone in my unit acted that way while I was in the military we'd inform them a lot can happen out in the middle of no where so grow the F up.
