No. They honestly believe none of the stuff that comes out against Bama happened. I don't know how they convince each other of that time after time but they do. Saban himself couldn't convince them he cheats.

Any team in the SEC would. Just look at the turn around Ole Miss has had with only a small amount.

Did Pat Dye not continue to be kept on staff and paid after he got your school on probation? And please, please don't trot out the tired "he was just taking care of a kid who couldn't afford food" line.

It's really sad how far they've taken their cheating. Paying players, paying off disgruntled coaches, paying off public officials. There will eventually be a documentary on the "dynasty of cheaters", how football lost to the process.

This is truth.

Yeah, except we won the SEC and played in the NC game since then. What has LSU done since 2011 except keep the program on life support?

Was an auburn assistant coach recorded giving money to an auburn football player?


Which one of the two programs was most recently placed on probation for buying players? Albert Means ring a bell?

You're contractually required to pay coaches who resign buyouts?

I mean, I've always been told both Dye and Tubbs resigned. If they resigned, why did they get a buyout?

Just a matter of time before Bruce Pearl gets busted for cheating too. Signing 5 star players left and right to a school that has been to 8 NCAA tournaments IN THEIR ENTIRE HISTORY!!! He has FAR below a .500 record and is signing 5 stars left and right. Not shady AT ALL...lol

It doesn't matter what coaches get compensated.
The institution makes the contracts not the NCAA. NCAA investigates student athletes' eligibility issues not what is in a coach's contract. They can't dictate an agreement between a coach and an institution.

Bo Davis suffered the same fate Joker Phillips suffered at Florida when he contacted a recruit during a dead period too. He got fired.
Alabama would have kept Bo if he didn't lie to UA Compliance and the NCAA about contacting a recruit in a dead period. Probably would have just taken a few recruiting days away and education. The normal stuff.

Terry Bowden - "AU was paying players $12-15K in cash when I got there and I put a stop to it"
From the linked article:
quote:

The school's statement also said Bowden repeatedly had certified to the NCAA from 1993 through 1998 that "he was unaware of any unreported violations of NCAA rules by anyone involved with the Auburn football program."
quote:

"There was even a rumor that, at one time, (an assistant coach) was the keeper of the book," Muse said. "In fact, after he left Auburn, Terry even told me that. But that has never been verified. In the NCAA investigation, there didn't turn out to be any evidence of that."
Which time do you think Bowden was lying?

In the meantime, can you specifically name any of the dozens of AU players who publicly admitted they received "$12-15k in cash" before Bowden "put a stop to it"?

Seems like at least one would have come forward when the gravy train was yanked out from under them.
