Bama suspends Outland Trophy winner

[ddthetide]

a buddy of mine in Tuscaloosa passed this along to me today.

"From the bits and pieces I have gathered some have told me that Andre didn't do anything but a family member, possibly his uncle or his dad, took out an insurance policy on Andre through an agent before the Bowl game. Another agent who wanted Andre turned them in. I'm not going to say this is etched in stone."

These kids are told over and over again what the rules
are concerning parents, contacts with agents , yada yada yada.

My daughter had to sit through four 1 hour presentations about
contact between colleges and players her junior and senior year
at AAU tourmanments not associated with school. Had to sign
forms that she understood... I had to listen
to the same Dick Vitale video on all the contact rules 4 different times
and sign papers. It is ridiculous how careful they are.

After kids sign up with a school they are pounded with all the other rules.
Most of them know these rules better than any class they are taking.

No excuses.
Except maybe stupidity.
