"If oversigning is 'morally reprehensible,' what is playing more than a dozen arrested players over the last five or six years?"

— An SEC football coach reacting to Florida president Bernard Machen, who threw the above-morality card at oversigning. "Maybe if Florida oversigned a little, it could kick more outlaws off its team," the coach added.

Former Florida coach Urban Meyer had approximately 30 arrests involving his players in six years on the job — or about five a year, which is the number most SEC coaches tend to oversign by. New Florida coach Will Muschamp apparently disagrees with Machen.

He, like the other 11 football coaches, voted to keep the oversigning cap at 28 instead of cutting it to 25 before it was cut to 25 by the presidents.

"The elementary education and secondary education in the state of Louisiana is not the best in the world. Same for Alabama, Mississippi, Arkansas."

... anyone know which SEC Coach said it?

Spurrier has no room to talk when he keeps running Garcia out there time and time again.

Saban is too classy to say it. Chiz doesn't comment, ever. Too coherent for Miles. I'm guessing Nutt.

Chiz wouldn't say it after the recent developments with AU's program.

Why would the coach ask to keep it on the DL? Sounds like a pussy to me.

Most coaches not named Lane Kiffin will only give colorful sound bites like this off the record.
