Vandy’s Statue of Liberty play last Saturday…

Garcia has a chick in his hotel room... thus resulting in him being suspended "indefinitely" and then reinstated. Is that what the allegations pertain to?
No, it is due to the Whitney Hotel incident and booster issues. The bad part is that some coaches may have known about the booster issues and not said anything to the compliance department… that and the ‘repeat violator’ offense because of the 2005 thing…
Haha I saw that guys post and I was like MY SOUL. I love being an Aggie and I am SO excited for us to join the SEC.
We welcome you nicely now… but come game time, things may change. We hope you’re really ready :)
The letter of Allegations to USC is for something that they have already been punished for. I negotiated a deal at a hotel the other week. I guess that the NCAA needs to suspend me from playing football and say that I have to repay the difference. Abolish the NCAA and their backwards thinking.
Failure to monitor is a serious charge that goes after the administration also, not just the players. I’d be careful thinking that it’s already been accounted for.
Check back in 3 years when the investigation is over with though.
Oh they have some history and traditions alright; most stupid (such as crotch grabbing). Y'all will learn soon enough how ridiculous they truly are. Wait... it's not Wednesday yet is it?
haha… I love this guy.
