As I said... Make of it what you will. I agree, it would seem odd and largely unnecessary as I do seen to remember that at least his mother is a physician. Mostly was pointing out that this isn't the first time that rough accusation has come up...

If they're referring to actual car repairs on the other hand, I'm not buying it at all... No way a parent with their education allowed their kid to risk eligibility over a car repair bill (couple of thousand bucks tops).

I got a good chuckle out of that as well. Other schools in the southeast in particular have years' worth of handing out multiple thousands to recruits, buying cars, paying families, buying family's houses, moving families, setting them up with jobs at the school, and on and on. But yeah we paid for a parent's fender bender and that's what put him over the edge to sign with us.

I saw the Alabama board saying that he signed with UGA because we fixed his parents car....as if they couldn't afford to fix it themselves. It was actually one poster saying that, but, as usual he was saying it as if there was no doubt about it)

The Alabama poster saying that said something to the effect it was true because he had not made a visit to Alabama because their car was broken down.
