That's a really poor interpretation of the situation. Sorry TM.

But this is a case of agents receruiting Mayo with gifts. It is totally independent from USC, and the agents probably did not give two ****s where he played. They were not boosters for USC.

The only argument that can be made is that USC should have had more institutional control, over esnuring there athletes don't get gifts... but this is NOT A BOOSTER. Major difference.

Ultimately, the NCAA can do very little about controlling agents. Only the NBA could do something, and that is to decertify agents who do this,

After reading the entire thread I'm shcoked by the sheer amount of stupidity was in this entire thread.

THIS IS NOT BOOSTERS. THIS IS NOT USC PAYING. THIS HAD NOTHING TO WITH THE RECRUITING PROCESS TO COLLEGE. THIS IS AN AGENT THAT IS TRYING TO GET A PLAYER TO SIGN WITH HIM WHEN HE GOES PRO.

It's idiotic for someone to call for the death penalty on this.

He were go making an accusation that may or may not be true (but of course its against Kansas), but furthemore this comment has abolutely NO ****ING RELEVANCE to this case.

IS LSU A ****ING AGENT?

Ya, this post was posted (as were a lot of the posts) less than 48 hours after the story broke. The facts weren't in, and of course, we assumed the worse, especially with USC involved. At this point, we know what happened, and we know who was (runners, agencies, etc.) / wasn't (USC) involved. Because of that, I don't know about the "sheer... stupidity" comment.

btw, you need to come around more often so you can straighten us out faster.
