Make sure they report to the OT on how the cruise went. Several people have asked advice on cruises over the past couple weeks.

If that's the case, then it's the most chicken-shite - yet most genius - plan to get a rival on probation ever.

I admit I don't know the detailed rules of what can and can't be done for a player. I have always thought that in order for something to be illegal, a "booster" had to be someone who was connected to an institution - gave money, held season tickets, etc.

If the guy giving the free cruise has no connection to Bama, and that could be proven that he never held tickets, never gave money to Tide Pride or a Red Elephant Club, etc. where would it get the school in trouble? To me it would just be a case of a dumbass throwing away money.

But like I said, I don't know the ins and outs of the rules. However, if that is the case, and you would get the opposing team in trouble, I would think it would be more commonplace.

the school would not get in trouble, but the players would probably have to sit several games for inproper benefits.

Please provide a link to an Auburn board that says Auburn boosters were involved in this trip.


I read a couple of threads about this supposed fishing trip on the Auburn scout board. Most posters on that board did not really know what happened


I could be wrong, but this sounds like another classic case of gumps blaming somebdoy else for their problems

isn't he at Bama really because Saban is friends with his dad?



Saban was friends with both of Mark's parents, but it was Mark's mother that wanted him to go to Alabama. If you recall, Mark's dad was running from the law most of the time Mark was being recruited.

All I saw from the original rumors were copy and paste jobs au premium sites so i can't provide a link.


although CPA apparently read the same post I did

the Auburn guy is one of the player's girlfriend's dad. that is all I heard.

Here is one of threads on the Auburn scout board about the supposed fishing trip. One the guys in this thread claims he personally saw Julio Jones and Mark Ingram with a gump booster, but most of the people in this thread don't seem like they know what happened.


You are still stretching by acting like all Auburn fans agree that there was an Auburn booster involved in this trip
