The part of the story that makes it compelling and noteworthy is the fact that Dickerson showed up to Sealy High School with a new gold Pontiac Trans Am shortly after announcing he was going to sign with Texas A&M. Suspicions ran rampant, but Dickerson claimed that his grandmother, Viola, purchased it for him. Meyer joked that they called it the "Trans A&M."


quote:

Texas A&M offered him money, saying that the Aggies "showed my mother $50,000 in a briefcase."


quote:

Steve Endicott, who was an SMU assistant at the time, said in the documentary that Texas A&M "made the down payment on the car, and we helped him with it after he got to SMU."

Ah yes. The classic deflection by an LSU fan. Show something that happened in the 1970s to deflect what is happening to their program currently.

This was when Aggy actually had money.

Nowadays, they’re giving away their best AD of all-time to LSU for 50k.

Poor gonna poor.

You need to school yourself on SWC.

That was the cost of doing business. This was a fail.

I thought Auburn was the dirtiest program but LSU said " hold my beer".

Guess if they'd have landed him, they would not have needed to jump to the SEC

Fun fact: Georgia sold the state’s athletic soul to the devil for a magic Trans Am we used to get Herschel to sign and win the title in 1980.

Seems like overkill

50K can easily fit in an envelope in your breast pocket.

Surprised you didn’t whip out our 50’s point shaving scandal going that far back.
