You're acting like Bama fans should be just as upset at the coaches who did the former (Spurrier, Nutt, Cutcliffe) as they are at the coach who did the latter (Fulmer).
If you think that Spurrier didn't call the NCAA and turn over information, you are fooling yourself.
quote:
After his testimony, Donnan said in a courthouse hallway that he and several
other coaches talked among themselves about the need for an NCAA review of
recruiting at Alabama, including Means' signing.
The other coaches, he said, included Phillip Fulmer of Tennessee; Steve
Spurrier formerly of Florida and now with South Carolina; Houston Nutt of
Arkansas and former Mississippi coach David Cutcliffe, now an assistant at
Notre Dame.

quote:
He said former Florida coach Steve Spurrier, now at South Carolina, as well as Arkansas coach Houston Nutt, former Mississippi coach David Cutcliffe and "a whole bunch of other coaches for a long time said the same thing."

And finally,
quote:
“(Another) thing that was not told to (the press) is that the Albert Means violation was not reported by the University of Tennessee,” Wilson said, “but by the University of Arkansas. ...
“All of these facts totally refuted the UT conspiracy in the case.”

Actually, Bama fans should be mad at their coaches who not only broke the rules (and nearly got their program the death penalty), but paid $150,000 for a guy who wasn't even good enough to make it to the next level. Saban would have processed this kid by year 2.

None of those coaches actively participated in the investigation, nor did any of them appear as a secret witness, nor did any of their schools coincidentally receive a pass on an infractions case after playing private investigator. Only Fulmer fell into that category.
You can argue that Fulmer did nothing wrong. That's fine. It's not worth the pissing match. But arguing that Spurrier or Nutt or whoever did the same thing Fulmer did is inaccurate.

Finebaum used to have Jim Donnan on his show a few years ago. Don't know if he still does or not. Donnan stated on Finebaum's show that a group of SEC coaches told DuBose to his face they were going to turn him if he didn't do something to get Bama's recruiting under control. I actually heard Donnan make that statement live

I just wanna highlight this because it's been overlooked for too long.
