That is a Bama blog that is terrible. Guy has zero cred and was a major part of ATPB.


I guess I had zero cred after I broke the news that your associate AD for compliance had sanctions levied against him by the NCAA. Paul Parker eventually quit AU.

I guess I had zero cred after I broke the news that Guz Malzahn was headed to Arkansas State.

And would you like to guess who first published the news that Reese Dismukes had been arrested?

I had a couple dozen posts on ATPB. That was high entertainment, wasn't it?

Thanks for reading.

I'll never forget the "body bag" game on Monday night football. I was a youngster at the time but I remember the Redskins having two quarterbacks getting hurt in that game and Brian Mitchell, the RB, had to finish the game at QB for the Redskins. I think like 8 or 9 players were injured in that game for the Redskins.


Loose... Could you drop me a note to admin@ibleedcrimsonred.com?

The 17k tax free is a great attempt at hiding the ball. TR would have to cash in his room and board to get that much for each semester plus a summer term. Thus, he would not only have to pay his car note, insurance and gas, but he also would have to pay rent, utilities, food and etc. for a full year with that.

Also, the clothing fund is bs and is not allowed for athletes. Schools do not give athletes a clothing fund.


You're gonna have to argue these points with Flint Harris, a nine year veteran of compliance matters like this. Holy Turf.

He strongly argues that you don't know WTF you are talking about and since he's smarter than you are, I'm taking his side.

Now, really. I want to know about these private investigators who may (or may not) be stalking Bama football players.

You got another cheesy blog for us today?


Why yes, I do. Thank you for asking.

Give me $17k tax free, and I'll gets me an SUV, biatches!

Here's a bonus link from a smart dude who proves Brooksie photoshopped the images on his site to hide the fact that Trich is driving a 2007 Yukon, not a 2011.

CAUGHT RED HANDED!

Four years on a Yukon knocks about what? $15k to $20k off the price? That puts the cost well within the range of a college football player who, as I show in my own blog post, has access to as much as $17k every year. Tax free.

Now, about this private investigator thing. Tell me more, please.

SOOO, private investigators can be arrested for stalking? what's the difference?


Wait wut? Private investigators?

Boogs are now hiring PI's to stalk Bama players?

Gahhh, man. Y'all are weird or something.

Jacobs said Auburn has not complied with open-records requests from The Birmingham News out of respect for the NCAA's process. Over several months, The News has requested documents related to Newton's recruitment and all of Auburn's recent NCAA secondary violations.

"Generally, when the NCAA says it isn't over with, we don't release them," Jacobs said. "They'll even look at things we may or may not have gotten a reply from the NCAA yet just to see if there's any history there, anything that jumps out to them because they've looked into things. I would think in the near future we'll be able to share everything you need. But we're not going to do that until they tell us it's OK to do that."


Maybe I misunderstood your post. It sounded like you (maybe others, too) believe that Auburn has reported secondaries and that was all anyone expected to come of this. I can't find any cases where a school was given sanctions for LOIC (considered a major infraction) for a series of secondary violations.

And if you aren't going to get LOIC for secondary violations, then the only reason why LOIC is being looked at is that there are major infractions involved.

So, when they stick to the "No Comment" line they are hiding stuff and trying keep anyone from finding out what's going on. When they make a comment, they would have been better off sticking to no comment.


Two things:

1. Sticking to "no comment" is always smart when you have a reasonable expectation that what you say will be used against you.

2. Revealing that Enforcement is looking into institutional control procedure may have jeopardized the integrity of the investigation.

Not that it's a big secret the NCAA is investigating, but until this point no one knew for sure what NCAA by-laws were in play. We guessed that Article 13 (recruiting) was in there. Jacobs confirmed that. But he also put Article 6 (Institutional Control) out there. No one saw that coming, so it's a big deal.

Auburn has reported some secondary violations..


They did? When? What violations were reported and for which sport(s)?

little thing called post history


Four, five, a few dozen of those or a half dozen of the other. Point is, I wasn't an ATPB regular.

Instead of rambling on about LOIC, JJ should have kept his mouth shut and stuck with the "no comment" line.

IBC = Bama version of AU's NTYF.


I ought to slap you upside your wobbly head for that. :lol:

I posted about four or five times in ATPB, so I'm hardly an ATPB'er. I'm just a blogger who sticks with boring things like facts, logic and clear-headed thinking. That, of course, makes me the Anti-NTYF.

One annoying little fact: The NCAA enforcement staff does not review institutional control processes unless there is evidence of major infractions which, in their totality, would rise to the standard of lack of institutional control.

All of the flames, deflection and denial don't change that.

Current University of Alabama policy regarding the personal vehicles student-athletes:

Each year, All student-athletes at the University of Alabama are required to complete a thorough questionnaire regarding any vehicle they will have on campus. They must describe in detail the make/model of their vehicle, when it was purchased, who has legal title to the vehicle, whether the purchase was financed and who financed it, the source of money if the vehicle was paid for in cash, and who pays for the insurance, license and registration. They must also provide a photograph of the vehicle.

Any grey area and the vehicle never comes on campus. No ifs. No ands. No buts. If there are any red flags whatsoever, there is an internal compliance investigation. Source: University of Alabama compliance Office, 205-348-3615.

These policies don’t just apply to football players, either. It goes for Women’s basketball and Men’s swimming, too. Track and field? Check. Water polo? Check. Golf? You get the idea.
