Can Someone Translate Golding's Comment?

But, you know, when you go through what we went through (with tampering), and what you’re seeing day-in and day-out, some things you feel like shouldn’t matter that they’re making a big deal about," Golding said. “Not comparing [Ferrelli] to a guy who’s been a starter somewhere that wasn’t in the portal that’s at a new school now after going to a semifinal — like what are we doing? That’s the piece where everybody’s at. There’s an enforcement of [Ferrelli], who just took an, but there’s not an enforcement of [Dottery], who was here for three years, and he’s been tampered with the entire time? What are we doing?”

Most of this is jibberish and I'm not sure he was sober when asked this question.

From what I could interpret from this drunk rant, he's saying that they committed a minor violation compared to what's happening in the CFB landscape, particularly regarding Dottery's decision to transfers.

How is texting a guy who just transferred to Clemson while he's in class and asking him to send you details of his contract so you can outdo it not blatant tampering?

If Lane tampered to get Dottery, then prove it. None of his current defensive staff was at Ole Miss during the CFP. He says Dottery was there 3 years and was "tampered with the entire time"? I didn't realize LSU and Lane had this all planned for so long.

If he thinks the Dottery situation is in any way comparable to the mess he's involved in, I'd be interested to learn how.
