Guess that means LSU will give the SEC half of the death penalties?

Would just like to add Louisville is still in the running. They haven't been dealt with by the NCAA for the Adidas Brian Bowen stuff that happened while they were on probation.

The may have escaped it by firing the University President, Athletic Director, football coach and Head basketball Coach and his staff.

LSU should take notes.


Also side note LOL @ South Carolina trying to get Brian Bowen eligible

The story of their center, Spivey, who was blackballed from the NBA and died broke and bitter is a really sad story.

Dude was 7’1” back in 1952, he could have gone down as one of the all time great centers. Apparently he played against Wilt Chamberlain once and gave him all he could handle.

Don't let that distract you from that fact that LSU bought their regular season title this year. *

Allegedly. Eddie Sutton claims to this day it was a setup but it doesn't matter. We were dirty as frick with or without that $1000 package.

Death penalty and their program still moving along just fine.

Can't say the same about SMU football.

They were 73-74, and 74-75 I believe. Kudos to you for knowing this though

That was just a desperation 3 from the start
We were the only team who would touch him.
And he basically used us for franks practices for the rest of the season

Whatever it’s over

Louisville may very well get hammered for major infractions while on probation, but there's not a chance in hell the NCAA ever gives anyone the death penalty again.

When I lived in Kentucky, I heard it was something like that. It just fell out of a shipping box or envelope in transit. Heard this from a UK fan.
