LSU's ex AD was on the radio today giving an interview and went on a 10 minute make fun of Starkville deal.
While in Starkville a tornado hit and we had to shelter in the basketball stadium and it went right thru Starkville and did $2.5 million of improvements.
You can't make fun of Starkville, at Jr. Probm they have mandated day care.
I went to Starkville when Ron Polk was retiring (their baseball coach) and he showed me his house and was proud of his sunken basement. I had to tell him it was because the tire was flat.
Starkville, old indian word for trailer park.
The first trip their on the team plane the pilot said "Welcome to Starkville, remember to set your watch back 20 years".
NASA has been studying why there is no atmosphere in Starkville.
"My first time to go play in Starkville we took a team bus. It was during mid-term exams so all the players brought their books to study on the long drive there.
As we crossed the state line into Mississippi a Mississippi state trooper stopped us and charged us with trying to smuggle books into Mississippi.
We were able to get the charges dropped because no judge in Mississippi had ever seen a book before.....
What has 3 teeth and 4 legs? A couple walking down the street in Starkville.
The difference between Starkville and a cup of yogurt is that the yogurt actually has a living culture in it.
When Ron Polk retired he told me he was having trouble selling his house. We duh.
Was pretty entertaining.

Wow. So in the absence of the school doing anything about it, should NCAA sports do something about it? Tough call. Don't want the sports league policing schools, but if the schools are not policing themselves, what's necessary?

Ruh roh... Likely very minor, but still. I have faith in Saban in dealing with this if true. Alabama and possible recruiting violations

They ('Around the Horn' panel) also said getting money is not a big deal. While I agree, it seems if its a SEC school, no big deal, everyone else should get a 10yr postseason ban! ESPN's Pardon the Interruption, Mike Wilbon says since the whole SEC has been accused of some form of cheating that Ole Miss should just get a slap on the wrist.

Gonna go out on a limb that the money wasn't to pay the electric bill of his mother either.

So people sueing penn state are the ones that are the facts behind the judges opinion. Yet those same people didn't report it then to authorities nor to the DA during the trial. Sounds ligit. Sounds like people are cashing in on a payday. Seeing how Penn state on average paid out 25 million a person with little to no evidence I don't fault anyone saying they got diddled when they didn't.

Never followed the Sandusky thing. What made him so valuable that people could look the other way for so long? I don't condone it, but I could somewhat see what would motivate people to look the other way if a person was key to whatever. I don't think he was, was he?
