I didn't see the wording, "all-time."
Continuing to include such old infractions on a list like this would be akin to placing Yale (most football national championships of any school) at the top of the list of best football programs.

Thank you--I stand corrected.

My point remains the same.

Technically you are correct. But if you read the article it implies all time. And, if Yale had as many Nattys as Alabama or Notre Dame you would include them as one of the best programs of all time, would you not?

I mean...babe Ruth hit relatively few home runs in his last two years...same for Hank Aaron. but they are still considered two of the greatest home run hitters of all time, are they not?

No problem, I always bring up Princeton when we get called nouveau riche. And I am sure I misspelled that.

Your point? think they have been passed by someone. Did some of those 7 major infractions magically go away, or something?

Like I said, a statute of limitations should exist.
Just one opinion.

They do.
I believe they have more.

I'm just wondering why you felt the need to post an article from 3 years ago, when it has already been discussed so many times before on the SECRant.

Hey. Your opinion is worth every bit as much as mine. Probably more!

Yeah, but how many are totally stretched out of all recognizance? (Yale's, not Alabama's!)

Probably because you guys thought it necessary to jump on Georgia and the swimming program even though it had already been discussed? I mean...are you guys the only ones that can bring up subjects more than once?

Oh, so you created this thread in response to another thread? You do know that is against the rules, right? Sorry we hurt your feelings.

Actually, I didn't. However, one of your Aubbie brothers did the same in retaliation for this thread, so......
