Seems that UA has been making large payments to the husband of Govenor Bentley's mistress for several years. According to al.com
quote:

Since 2010, University of Alabama records show UA has paid JRM Enterprises – a Tuscaloosa-based advertising, marketing and design company founded in 2005 by Jon Mason and operated by him ever since – a total of $245,600, categorizing the payments under "service and professional fees."

As a result there is an investigation through the State Ethics Commission.

It's also been discovered that our Governor who's a graduate of UA and resident of Tuscaloosa had been purchasing burner phones from the local Best Buy. You know burner phones, those things Bagmen use to payoff recruits and coaches

Not surprising to find out the University cheats at every level but it's nice to see their perfidy finally come to light.

On a serious note, with all the budget cuts to higher education does it not piss you all off to see money being thrown away on political cronyism

The whole situation is almost like a SNL skit. Hypocritical and crony government capitalism on every level, using government to get rich and powerful.
