Won’t be a story on Friday and nothing will happen.

The kid hiring a lawyer for the transfer and the lawyer showing that document to the press BEFORE he submits it shows that he was angling for nothing more than eligibility the entire time.

More and more kids will try this to get around transfer rules

Doubt it. With allegations already from all direcyions

about what's been going on since Fisher Waltzed into College Station, this'll get a full blown investigation going.


If everything else wasn't already going on, you'd be right.

OHHHHH!!

If the media decides to run with this, it could be a ugly, ugly start for Jimbo.

The media is the least of Jumbo's problems. If true, these are major violations, and the NCAA has already been notified.

If not for the media...Maryland

would be doing their normal thing right now. True, the NCAA is who can ultimately make punishments, but I don't have faith after seeing UNC.

The media, at least, can make life miserable for the whole program, not to mention alert the attention of the recruits and boosters.

Wow.


Aug 21, 2018, 7:15 PM

I'm trying to figure out if his "fully guaranteed" $75M contract has any provisions to terminate him for cause due to NCAA violations.

The logical part of my brain says fully guaranteed means 100%, no matter what this is your money.

But, surely they have clauses that protect the university in the event Jimbo goes rogue.

Anyone have any insight here?

Heh. He just signed it today. Talk about timing! Weird how that happened. I'm sure it's all legit.

That's the funniest thing I've seen all day. I snotted myself. TU!

until I read the details I’m thinking this is just a kid angling for a transfer


Aug 21, 2018, 10:49 PM

And it is - But looks like he has some proof so the reason it got exposed won’t matter. Especially with what happened at Maryland in questionable off season workouts, this probably won’t get ignored.
