as long as manziel lies there's nothing the ncaa can do to him.

good luck to them finding a paper trail.

Unless he is caught in the lie. Hell, Russell Shepard was suspended for 3 games for telling a teammate what the NCAA asked him.

These types of posts always crack me up. The NCAA has penalized dozens of schools without hard evidence. They aren't a court of law and aren't bound to due process. They're not above handing down rulings based on testimony alone (even testimony from someone that wants you to go down). During Alabama's Logan Young mess, they never found a dollar that went to pay Means' coach, but all it took was another coach pissed because he didn't get anything and a secret witness who hated Alabama (Fulmer) and we were toast. I'm not denying it happened, but there was no hard evidence, just testimony (testimony that doesn't require oath or risk of perjury).

If he did it then I think he should sit because of what another poster said (others caught had to sit). If he didn't do it then I think he should play. I know no one wants to say hey, I'm guilty, I did it, etc., but I hope that he is honest about it whether he did or did not.


I personally would have more respect for him if he fessed up and said I did it (if he did in fact recieve money for autographs). If he honestly did not do it then I think people should get over it.

Either way, I'm just ready for football to be back.
