bmags Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 QUOTE (zenryan @ Jan 24, 2013 -> 05:53 PM) That's what will happen. When the Yahoo article came out, so many people were wanting death penalty type sanctions that anything less will to those people will be an outrage. But in reality Miami has pretty much been punished by self imposing and having this drag out for two years. Other than taking some scholarships, there isn't much the NCAA can do. Well, I'm a mizzou fan, they could force us to can our coach and loose recruits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you see the "updated scouting report" one? I'll have to look for it but it was hilarious. Sounded serious at first till you thought about it.

Heads22 Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 So the Big Ten is still looking at adding teams while the Big 12 is considering either standing pat, adding two, adding six or forming an alliance with one of three other conferences.

Soxbadger Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Give us more specifics, dont make me go to Aimes and make you tell us. I actually may be going there for something called Viesa. So these are not idle threats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually may be going there for something called Viesa. So these are not idle threats. As for the Big Ten, OSU president Gordon Gee apparently made a remark in December about the possibility of expanding to 16-20 or something like that. The Big 12 has meetings on Monday and Tuesday with one full day of talking about the benefits/drawbacks of expanding. He just did an interview for the Austin paper saying the league is lookin into possibly forming an alliance with the ACC or one of a couple other conferences for the benefit of scheduling, TV and the like. And if you're coming for VEISHEA get your drinking shoes on. Also look it up on YouTube (riots). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IlliniKrush Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Haven't heard much out of the Hickory camp. Probably still crying with Swarbrick since Te'o was such a victim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rex Hudler Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Jan 25, 2013 -> 06:21 AM) So you think nothing in an athlete's personal life is anyone's business? If so, I completely disagree with you. This country already has a problem with accountability and when high-profile celebrities straight-up lie to the American public's face, it only adds fuel to the fire. No one is saying he committed a crime and no one is saying he deserves to go to hell for this. But Manti should man up and admit the whole truth. I get the initial reaction is to lie, but he just looks a bumbling idiot who can't get his story straight right now and the coverup is always worse crime (if and when it finally comes out). That's very much not what I said. But basically, the questions have been asked and answered. Whether you believe him or not, that's your problem, not his. At this point, I don't think the exact details are my business, yours or anyone else's that he doesn't know and have to deal with. I'm not hanging onto his every word looking for inconsistencies, but I believe his story is plausible. He got duped. Why is it necessary to dissect that? Will his misery and problems make you feel better about yourself? If not, then why do you care so much. I for one, believe he got duped and his pain was real. Did he fall into a story he eventually couldn't get out of? Probably so. But again, who cares. It's a moot point now. I can also say this. If you want to grill me about every detail on something that happened years or even months ago, I'm probably going to give you some inconsistencies. I'm probably going to have to go back and review what happened and along the way I will remember details I didn't previously or even didn't remember accurately the first time you asked. Maybe T'eo and I are the only two on earth that are that way? Probably not. It's human nature and can happen to any of us. Why do you think eyewitness testimony is often sketchy? Because the human mind, unless you are Sheldon Cooper, doesn't remember every detail of an occurrence correctly and our minds tend to fill in the blanks for us. We can agree to disagree, that's fine. But I just don't see anything you will gain from worrying so much about what T'eo may have done on a certain night back in the fall or what he may have said to a reporter. Life's too short to worry about such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rex Hudler Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 QUOTE (SexiAlexei @ Jan 25, 2013 -> 12:55 PM) The problem with that is he made it other people's business. He continued this lie to keep his name in the headlines, and to continue this story. The biggest part of this is when they asked him the biggest tragedy he overcame, and after knowing his GF was fake, he referred to that story. Not his grandma dying, but continuing this story because people were eating it up. That being said, i've grown tired of this story. His interviews are bs, they ask him questions, but don't follow up on the questionable answers, every report that comes out contradicts the last... Eventually the true story will come out and then I'll be interested to hear about it, but until I hear different I'll still think of him as a liar, and someone who kept up a bulls*** lie to keep himself in the headlines. I think he kept up the story to keep himself out of the headlines. Think about it. If this story doesn't break, after the NC game he basically goes dark to the media until time for the NFL draft stuff. The story dies a natural death, no pun intended, and he doesn't have to worry about it anymore. His biggest mistake in my mind is after he found out it was a hoax, he didn't have this line ready anytime he was asked. "This has been a really tough year. Right now, rather than discuss it, I'd prefer to focus on football. But I appreciate you asking." If he was smart enough to say that, no one here is accusing him of lying. But again, I say, who cares? None of on here have anything to gain by his situation, unless of course we just prefer to be fascinated by the train wreck. If that's what gives someone enjoyment after it has gone on this long, fine. Whatever makes you happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
