A Williams and tampering?

So after reading latest article of front page, I’m guessing someone was tampering with Antonio trying to recruit him to another program? Anyone have any insight on this?

At this point it would be more shocking if another school wasn't tampering trying to get him

That doesn’t make it the right thing to do, though. The guilty should have consequences and repercussions. Saying, “ Everybody is doing it” doesn’t make it right.

The NCAA doesn’t care either, as long as tampering benefits the SEC and B1G.

Huh? Never said it was right and never said there shouldn't be consequences for it
I said I'd be more surprised if teams weren't tampering at this point which was a condemnation of what college football has turned into.
Stop trying to infer what people mean or ask them to clarify before assuming

It must be right or O K to offer a kid at a different FB program more money if no one, and I do mean no one is even attempting to do a thing about it. Just how many schools, or the staff members of any school have we heard about being punished in any way for tampering with elite players from other schools. Personally, I haven't heard of ONE, not a single person that I've heard about has been brought before a rules committee anywhere in the country that's being accused of tampering or offering bigger NIL cash to a single student athlete if they transfer over to their school to play a sport!!!

tampering is if officials from the school contact the players.

NOTHING stops boosters from contacting players or recruits. I'm sure All these NIL programs have "agents" constantly working on deals. Some more ethical than others..
for example.. Integrity State University's coach says," we are only going to talk NIl with kids who reach out to us 1st. We are not going to contact kids already on other teams."
Kirby Smart says, "Get my bag men on the phone and get that money rolling. Get me players to hide my pee poor coaching skills. "

When a school identifies someone tampering with a student athlete, the persons name and address should be posted on the fan forum site, i.e. TNet, and let the fans take care of the problem. End of tampering!

I am sure the will go after the wrong guy someday and they will expose

this person/booster and the team they represent.
The day that happens will be a great day!! At least the tampering would slow down a bit for awhile and maybe even help the NCAA grow a set and start regulating all this transfer portal BS.
Anyway, I am in for a trip to some wealthy boosters home to help straighten out any issues lol

Yes, I believe players like A. Williams are being recruited by third parties. We lost one to Texas and another to Mizzou. If we do not win it will get worse.

It was Ole Miss... Big facts... But you are right, NCAA doesn't care because they can't control it.

The NCAA can't do anything bc the Supreme Court literally told them they couldn't enforce their own rules. We have rules whether that's at your place of employment or a place you go that can restrict some of your Constitutional Rights. That's an agreement we come to when we accept a job or sign a permission slip. That is how a civilized society works, except when it comes to collegiate athletes. If you're a collegiate athlete then rules shouldn't pertain to you. You should be able to do what you want in the courts eyes and in the minds of politicians. Playing college football is a privilege not a Right. Somehow we have turned a privilege into a Right. Ppl say you can't put the toothpaste back into the tube but in this case you very well could if the ppl that make law actually did their job. Getting a scholarship actually use to mean something but bc we as a society have devalued education a college education means less today than it ever has. We have to turn the college diploma back into what it use to be, a sense of pride and a chance at a better life. We also need to take coaches like Lane Kiffin that would sell the souls of their own kids to win and exile them from college athletics.

The sport is completely lawless and incredibly sleazy. It's sad.***
