Can you tell what this thread is about?



I haven't kept up with all of this mess much, but basically the Memphis Commerical-Appeal is going to release its three week long investigation on area recruiting issues. Auburn and Mississippi State are implicated, and some want to bring Alabama's name through the mud because we have a handful of Memphis area players and one signee had his name appear in a report.

the cesspool that is Memphis is going to get Auburn a little dirty.

I heard we are looking at a year's probation and a reduction in visits- my boy in the AD dept said it goes a little deeper for Auburn

Tennessee turning people in and shite cause we stole some Memphis playas




I actually heard that it was Roy Adams who is to blame for all the snitchin.

The way that I heard it (info passed from a SEC asst coach) was that Adams was pissed at Dooley and wants him fired over some trivial crap. Adams started making all these accusations (which is documented on plenty of sites as well as finebaum show).

He talks to NCAA and drops some information on where to look meanwhile telling everyone that Dooley told him to do it.

Supposedly Dooley has called Mullen to say that he had nothing to do with it one bit (old school..let coaches handle between themselves) and that it was Adams (TNStud) that was causing all the trouble.

TIFWIW, but given some of the stuff that Adams has done in the past, it makes perfect sense.

So...there's this talk radio host in Huntsville claiming Newton info will be revealed also: LINK

Claims he's a Gator fan.

Drunk?

Interesting tweets this weekend from the Memphis Commerical-Appeal
Is our shitshow of a season not enough for you Bammers to jerk off to? Y'all need the threat of the NCAA too?


What...you've never fantasized about doing it with twins?

Brandon Hill is the only one with any connection to Alabama that is mentioned in the article from what I am hearing. He says nothing about Alabama at all according to people "in the know".

We'll just have to wait until tomorrow to find out what it's all about.


My understanding from talking to some folks at his school, the NCAA was not asking Hill about Bama, but about Miss St. It was heavily rumored around Memphis within a few weeks to signing day that he may flip on signing day to MSU.

Sadly, most everyone that knew his situation knew he was headed for prep school or juco bc of grades.

I could see this... Thing is, no one "snitched" on us, we self-reported. Someone just unfortunately made it public to the media at a point that the whole thing was nearly cleared up for us, thus making the situation far worse(court of public opinion).

Thing is, we had been handling it internally with the NCAA since Feb.

Yeah, I believe that Adams has been making these claims since Jan or Feb. And while Miss St may have been at the front of it, I am sure he was throwing out even more stuff than was true.

That is why I think Dooley might have called to say that he was not behind it since Adams was telling folks he was.

I can tell you this right now. TN did not lose Redmond bc Miss St bought him a car. Part of the reason he lost him was bc the recruiter in Memphis at the time did not recruit the guys that hard (as told to a local HS coach in Memphis by Redmond), and well he was let go because of it.

Speaking of the crap stirrer himself, this is what Adams posted a few mins ago on Volquest....

Someone could tweet Parrish and ask if its true..


quote:

Gary Parrish, CBSports called today to talk, saying he would be over for Saturday's tv party, games; he asked if he could attend our weekly Wed. luncheons where sports folks gather at 3 rotating restaurants. Naturally I told him yes; it would be at Wang's, Ridgeway, Park at 11:30. He said he would definitely attend. He then said that he heard that Auburn would be hit hard in the next several days. Since he called me, I didn't inquire, ask. I just listened. Later, another usually well informed individual called to say that Yahoo Sports or ESPN was coming out with a bombshell telling the story how the soccer coach at Wooddale HS, Jovon Robinson's school, would be outed. She's an Auburn graduate. One week end she carried Jovon to Auburn without Jovon telling his mother. Upon returning, her auto broke down and again, Jovon didn't call his mother. That MOnday Jovon's mother reported her son as missing to the Memphis police department. Now, according to rumors, she's somehow involved in the distribution of money, etc. Again, just rumors.

The NCAA has been actively involved recently here in Memphis. One of my best friends met with them; they came to his home, took a lot of photos, and carried him to lunch at Mr. B's. Most interesting info from those meetings but I was sworn to secrecy.

Auburn and MSU both paid for half of Cam to win an NC at Auburn and to get MSU's name in the news.

No such thing as bad publicity amirite?

If anything is proven, I want the offenders AND Chizik gone. Again, IF any of this is true, Chizik is the head coach, and he's responsible for everything that goes on with his staff.


It's hard to blame the guy for just doing what his boss tells him to do.

If true I don't think Chizic had a clue, he didn't even want Cam at first.

Nope. This all makes me nervous. It's like Jelks and Ramsey all over again. I used to want people to get in trouble. Now I just want everything to calm down and move on to the PAC-50.


I've never understood the blind hatred some have over a game. i want to beat the other teams when they are good. It does the SEC no good to turn everyone in like we are doing over every little thing. Once the NCAA comes down they don't just look at one program they look at many.
