paying their own way
Anytime this phrase makes it into the explanation, I can say with 99% certainty that cheating is involved.
No football player good enough to play for Alabama is going to pay for school.

Really? A guy like Paul Tyson who is Bear Bryant's great grandson, whose family can easily afford to pay his way, wouldn't do so?

And you would be a liar who thinks he knows everything. Case in point - Coach Bryant's grandson.

Or our kicker, Will Reichard
There is a group of them that is a pretty sad bunch right now. Just wildly spewing vomit all over the walls. Kicking and screaming and yelling "HOW DO THEY GET AWAY WITH IT".
The funny thing is, a lot of them are the same ones who were literally posting that gif about Will Wade the last 2 years at other fanbases.....that is until his team sucked and they all decided they wanted to fire him during an asterick year.

This is exactly what I am saying - in their pathetic attempts at justifying their mediocrity, they cry about cheating. I really don't understand this. If you want to do better, figure it out

I'm curious as to how and why this dude pays his own way.
Not saying he doesn't, just doesn't make much sense.

Because he's a kicker from Hoover who wants to be at Alabama and his parents have money and are fine doing it. Could have had a 529 plan all set up and ready to go to pay for college, could have saved for years and would rather him kick at the place he loves than somewhere else, could be millionaires, etc. There are 100 different possible reasons.
I'm not exactly sure what else there is to it.

Duke is completely on the up and up with basketball recruiting and Joe Biden really got more votes than any other presidential candidate in history.

Didn't his dad die while he was like in high school or something?

You could have just used LSU there - probably would have been more relevant.

It’s completely analogous to what some Bama fans are trying convince themselves of.

We talking Will Wade again?

Are LSU fans trying to convince themselves that LSU sports are completely above board? Stop playing games, George. You are better than this.

It seems that his dad worked at AT&T until his death and his mom is a pharmacist so I doubt they're millionaires although a college fund is certainly likely.
Just seems odd that the #2 kicker in the country with multiple scholarship offers would offer to pay his own way although certainly not impossible I guess.

College fund, life insurance, years of saving for college, etc

So what exactly is your alternative theory here?

It's all about processing the non producers.

I said 99%. You may have named the 1%.
