But if they caught it, self reported, and didn't play him, I don't see this is a problem. In my opinion LSU did the right thing and did a self investigation and reolved the issue. How do you punish someone for doing the right thing.

I hate the fricking NCAA!!

This. Hell he could have given him $15 for 10 10 220

Nah. It won't get zapped. There is over a 30 page thread on the rant about it and new one that popped up today after this article came out. The admins here aren't nazis.

We might lose some scholarships from this, but I hope not.


Doubt it. We're not a repeat offender, Hicks didn't play at all and it was self-reported. Probably gonna get the "you're being watched" by the NCAA.

Doesn't he live on campus with the rest of the guys? Those apartments are part of the room & board no?

Take a word of advise for us Bama fans and never assume you know what the NCAA is thinking.

Not playing him = no forfeitures.

Coach paying him = NCAA doing whatever the hell they feel like doing.

Why the frick did McCarthy do all this over a JUCO transfer?



But on the bright side we don't lose anyone of real value.



IDK if it was mentioned in the article, but DJ McCarthy was also the only coach on the offensive side of the ball to not receive a bonus.
McCarthy, Enjoy Memphis you cheating prick.

Any time money exchanges hands between a coach and a player you have to be worried. The NCAA has never been much for basing their decisions off of precedent. It all just depends on the moods of the people making the ruling on whatever day they get around to it.
