As far as Bama fans calling Pell out for cheating, he played for Bryant and was a graduate assistant for him. Where do you think he learned it? We just didn't have it perfected like Bama.


Pretty much all the guys that coached under Bear and went on to major head coaching positions got busted for cheating: Pell, Dye, Sherrill, Stallings. And I am sure I am missing several.

Bear was the godfather of serious cheating in the NCAA. However bama had the systems in place to cover it up and not get caught (you can go back to the 20s, 30s, 40s and find documentation of it). So maybe bama is the godfather of cheating in the NCAA and bear just continued the tradition. Hard to say. Sorta chicken vs egg type question.

Stallings wasn't the one who cheated. He didn't sign that bar napkin in New Orleans, that was Langham and Langham alone. He then proceeded to lie about signing the napkin when word got to Stallings and Stallings had no choice but to take Langham at his word.

Where Stallings screwed up was with his handling of the NCAA investigators. The sanctions wouldn't have been as bad had he not lost his cool and kicked the investigators out of the athletic building. That was a dumb move.
