I like what you did there with the title, very appropriate. I still cant believe nothing has come of the Bush controversy.

They (WE) are all crooked from Florida to Columbus thats the way it is, just some fans refuse to face reality.

This doesnt surprise me much. Especially after the Bush fiasco. How nothing has come of that yet, I have no idea. To me, USC is the New England Patriots of the NCAA


1972 Miami Dolphins-The ONLY undefeated team in NFL history!!!

I really agree with that, becuase it seems like everyone hates USC in college football and everyone hates New England in pro football. Both football programs have been caught cheating, I mean I could go on and on...:lol:

The reality is that if everyone is doing it then it needs to be stopped. When teams get caught something serious needs to happen.

On the draft Quentin Rollins bandwagon.

For once a UCLA fan agrees with an ND fan. :lol:

I wasn't surprised at all by this. It's the U$C culture.

Yeah I saw this today in a segment on ESPN. The guy apparently transferred money from his bank account to Mayo's friends account than to Mayo's. I don't understand why the kids keep accepting the money from these people, I know they want money and like it like the rest of us but you would think that if you can afford going to U$C, you have money.

That's for regular students. They have pretty much full rides for athletes because I'm willing to bet 25 average athletes combined couldn't get enough to pay for one student's tuition.

The funny thing is the NCAA just docked USC's basketball program 2 scholarships because of academic under performance.

The Trojans lost two scholarships and were issued a formal warning after achieving a four-year APR score of 863, which was below the minimum acceptable threshold of 925. The minimum figure equates to a graduation rate of about 60%.

LOL, at least they get some punishment! :wink2:

It is amazing that the NCAA keeps looking the other way. :no:

Now I know why Mayo didn't go to Ohio St :no:

Because Ohio St only does that for their football players?

How do you underperform academically at $C? The one summer course I took there, for a biochemistry class that was overbooked here, was a joke. You'd have to be a moron not to pass classes at $C.

I've been at UCLA all 4 years for undergraduate study and darn proud of it. The only reason I took the $C course was because I was late in enrolling for the summer class at UCLA. Not that I didn't mind getting an A in that one $C class while my friends languished in the much more difficult UCLA equivalent. Except now med schools will wonder why I went the easy route when they see my transcript. :lol:
