Still, is anyone surprised that Miami has apparantly plumbed new depths when it comes to corruption? This is a program which has been embarrassing college football for decades. And it's time for the NC$$ to turn out the lights and lock the doors. But the top of the rate card for what can go wrong in college athletics occurred at Baylor. Remember? One basketball player whacked a teammate by putting one (or was it two?) 9MM rounds behind his ear. Then a corrupt coach, facing a drug investigation, tried to blame the murdered player. Hey, he was already dead, what difference does it make? The previous number one was the drive by shooting by football players on campus at Oklahoma. But when you can actually take somebody out, well, you win the kewpie doll.
So I had to check and make sure I had the roman numerals right. 31 threads, wow, can you believe it? I think I started posted around XIV!!! I wonder what you giuys were talking about in Thread # I ??? Who were the big name players then, had we won a Natl championship yet? Any "All Things" historians out there?
Swami would have been the best bet to answer your question.
World Arena North (aka Magness Arena on the campus of Denver State University) where the Colorado College Tigers are 17-11-5 all time against the Metro State Pioneers. Thank you Denver Roadrunners for building a second home for CC!!
Well, the Buckeyes' cachet has certainly diminished just a bit since then.
Yeah, but if you need someone to make your "free-tattoo for memorabilia scandal" look like a pittance, then you can always count on Miami for a REAL scandal.

True dat. Paraphrasing the old DuPont slogan: "Better things for better scandals through corruption."
I've been thinking about the definitive example of SMU corruption. Eric Dickerson had signed a conference LOI with A&M. But on natonal signing day he showed up in Dallas driving a brand new, fully tricked out Trans Am. The cover story was that his mom was making the payments. Her monthly stipend from welfare, food stamps and other sources came to less than 500 bucks. The monthly payments were around 450 bucks. This was a very frugal lady.
At the height of the SWC cheating scandals, a Houston TV station inverviewed a young, weathy booster for TCU. He allowed as how the going rate for a top flight running back was around 30K. Texas Christian University!

I don't think there is any doubt that the incoming 2011 Recruiting Class will be ranked #1 now that both Miami & UND lost their top recruit to major juniors.
