They do give a shite and it will continue to be a hot story. What they do not pay attention to is fans or a disgruntled player making these claims. That is not the case with Rush.

Because I brought them up to make my point. You decided to jump in, so it's your problem now.



Simply to point out that Texas A&M and LSU do not have talent comparable to Alabama as you incorrectly insinuated.

And the results of the playoff say YOU DON'T HAVE TO. So do better and stop whining about talent.

It's coaching stupid.

No shite.

You obviously didn't read my original post very well:

I'm not agreeing with the guy you're replying to but to compare the talent at Alabama to that at A&M or LSU is disingenuous at best.


You made a bad comparison, just own it. LSU and Texas A&M had less 5* players combined than Alabama on its own last season.

I can make any comparison I choose. Next time, stay out of it if the water is too deep.

Sure you can, doesn't make it correct.

But I digress, I agree with the premise of your point, just stating that comparing Alabama's talent to Texas A&M and LSU is like comparing the talent at Mississippi State to LSU.

Winning has cost Auburn a lot, and AU still hasn't won very much. Must be shitty to know you suck even when you cheat.

Everybody cheats. It's to the degree they cheat.

For an Ohio State fan to come this board and point fingers at SEC teams when their program had Jim Tressel and Urban Meyer... I mean Meyer proved character doesn't count. And Tressel had concerns when he was at Youngstown State. I'm not sure if I were an Ohio State fan I would be talking about lack of character and/or cheating.

No. Propst is not a disgruntled player or a fan.....but once they look at his credibility they won't pay any attention to him, either. Let's not act like he is some upstanding coach who tries to do the right thing. I suspect the NCAA will question him and he will say something like, "I was blowing smoke up their butt and just talking." and it will be dropped post haste.

Could I be wrong? Absolutely.

I know ohio state players were trading memorabilia for tattoos and i fully admit that tressel was lying about it. i'm just saying ESPN, SI etc made sure to get their pound of flesh by dragging OSU and Tressel through the mud with all sorts of phony outrage and SEC fans ate it up with a spoon.


The reason SEC fans got such a schadenboner about Ohio State was because of their moral preening about those awful oversigning cheaters in the SEC, so when Tressel got caught cheating and lying about it so he could keep players eligible to play against Arkansas, you bet we had a good time. I’m sure there are people who think that they got caught the only time they cheated, but we don’t.

There’s some saying about glass houses that comes to mind.
