re: Do you believe your rival blatantly cheats/pays players?

Whatever happened with the DJ Fluker story? He was getting paid while at Bama by a former Bama player yet not a peep after it first broke?

Julio drove an SUV that was about 7 years old that practically anyone could afford and his mom worked at KFC in Foley the whole time he was at Bama and even after he left school and was drafted. I used to see her in there weekly hammering on LSU AND Aub fans.

---

Also, it is not illegal, surprising, or exclusive to Bama that a dealership would extend a loan to a player like Julio that would not require payments to begin until after he would be in the NFL.

I wonder if WHOOLIO's mom is still a chicken slingin bitch, or if he took care of that shite.

Exactly. Who really thinks that Richt is going to just let his coaches run wild? I wish he would a bit more, tbqh, but that good, Christian man thing he does is not an act. He is very disconnected from any sort of cheating that goes on, just like Saban at Bama and Miles at LSU. Not too many HCs have a damn thing to do with the cheating.

It's usually not the coaches who are the problem, and I don't believe for one second that Richt has tighter control on UGA boosters than any of the other high profile programs.

All major programs have ways of supporting CERTAIN players. Georgia is not blatant with their cheating, but I believe they cheat. Bama is more blatant and more open about it. The money is laundered before it gets to KEY players. Auburn cheats, but we have never been able to outbid Bama for key players. (Yeldon comes to mind). The Flucker, Ttowns, house sitting, etc compare to the HBO 4.

I am 100% convince we did NOT pay Cecil for many reasons, the NCAA performed a colonoscopy and found nothing, every major news agency tried to find even a shred of evidence, our rivals tried to find evidence, Cecil is not smart enough to hide that much money. Also the only facts were that only MSU boosters had conversations with Cecil, did they ever agree to pay him? No, so why would we pay? If this had been an Auburn vs Bama discussion, I would have been worried.

Everyone cheats and if someone thinks otherwise, they are being naive at best.

Bama doesn't cheat nearly as much as you think, they don't have to. As an AU fan you may not like it, but guess what? They are Bama, they don't have to pay players as much as many other teams to convince them to come there when you have the sustained success they've had. I hate it too, it doesn't help UGA, but it is the way things are.

If you are really 100% convinced of that btw, then I am 100% convinced that you've got your head in the sand. Maybe you didn't pay him, but the evidence certainly insinuates that you did, it just doesn't prove it. NCAA couldn't look nearly as hard as you think, it is EASY to hide stuff from them, they don't have subpoena power. All Cecil had to do was simply not give them the info they needed. I agree he isn't smart enough to hide that money (I'm shocked he can actually tie his shoes), but you don't actually think he was the person tasked with hiding it, do you?

Why would AU pay for Cam? Because MSU was willing to pay too and you wanted him. Hell, MSU HAD him, most of those with any sort of connection at the time was hearing that he was done to MSU a couple weeks before his commitment, go ahead put him on the commit list. Auburn isn't pulling him on reputation alone if those reported amounts were really involved. Honestly, the fact that MSU was going to pay him that much and he did end up going to AU is all the proof you should need that AU did pay up.

It is usually the boosters, but there are teams in which the coaches are actually involved.

My point though was that if Richt did let his coaches just go nuts, the borders to Georgia would indeed be locked down. Everyone would be getting UGA's scrap (other than legacies) if Pruitt/Bobo/Rocker/McClendon/Lilly were just cruising around the state handing out cash.

Georgia has recruited as well as any school in the SEC over the last 25 or 30 years. They have recruited on a higher consistent level than either Alabama or Auburn have done over the last 25 or 30 years.

If you talk about recent years, Georgia is one of the few programs who is still able to rack in a top 10 class yearly or almost yearly without having a national championship to show off

How many players has Alabama landed from GA that had a commitable offer from UGA? Not hardly ANY
