Everyone cheats.
Ole Miss is just an easy target and Freeze poked the bear. It was self-inflicted trouble.

And no, I don’t really believe cheating is as rampant in baseball as it is in football and basketball... that was tongue in cheek.

But how’d he get those players to bama?
Have you been to Tuscaloosa? It’s basically Monroe Louisiana with an sec school.

Vandy can sign a whole team and put them on full “scholarship”. It’s not cheating it’s just a rigged system.

I mean he won a title at LSU, and had a lot of experience in the NFL. He’s also very good with parents. Once he got the ball rolling, it recruits itself.

Yep, I was referring to more egregious acts... I can’t imagine Vandy offering Dodge Chargers or setting up parents with houses for baseball players...

When Nick came to Alabama, a kid was more likely to win a championship at Florida or LSU yet he started pulling them in.
Hasnt he gotten fired from every NFL job he's held?

This has to be the biggest “I bet” moment in sports I can remember.
Some of the younger bandwagon fans did.
Any older fans that bought it were just naive or Reverend Freeze "believers".
Several people (myself included) knew generally about the ACT scheme while it was happening. This was the scheme that the were really dumb about because they didn't really hide it at all.
I don't think people ever knew enough specifics for it to get reported to the NCAA, but once they came sniffing over other things, they had no problem finding it.
Their pay-for-play stuff was amateurish but small potatoes. The rigged ACT scheme was the real scandal IMO, and it was satisfying seeing it come to light after knowing it only as a very believable rumor for so long.
I also think the thing that did Ole Miss in with the money is that they were pretty freely handing it out to every prospect they wanted, whereas other schools tend to focus the more unsavory recruiting methods on only their top targets.

They're just asking for it with the custom plates. Emmert protects Saban since they're longtime friends I think

Leave it to LSU fans to turn an Ole Miss thread into a bash Saban thread. The jealousy after a national title is unreal.

Bruh, stop being insecure.
I'm not bashing Saban, I'm saying he cant offer anything besides what any other big school can.

They are eerily similar. Freeze would do very well at Clemson.

Leave it to Alabama fans to think a major college football program is somehow spotless

What’s being pointed out to you is that you shouldn’t cast shade at a program when your program is doing similar things.

Yeah, those two decent seasons really made the "bear" mad.
We beat Bama!!!
Then why aren't Auburn, LSU, Georgia, and Clemson on probation?

I know man, I was just trying to mess with y’all. He’s the best coach of all time. Plus bama ain’t exactly a bad place to be.

I think Freeze would be a great coach even without the cheatin. One of the better offensive minds of the last decade
