I think this is simply one big clusterfuck that hurt everybody's feelings. BC's dad wanted him to go to Alabama. BC's coach wanted him to go to Auburn. Each did their own thing to ensure he was going to do what they wanted. Neither really seems like they handled it the way it should have been done. Nobody really took into consideration what exactly BC wanted. I don't even know that he knew what he wanted, for that matter. And that just adds fuel to each side's fire, because they're going to try and convince him of what's best for him. Maybe I'm totally off on the whole thing. I don't know which side is "at fault", but it seems some people want to live vicariously through BC.

That's all well and good.  A pushy father isn't anything new.  A HS coach shouldn't steer a player to or from any university.  He should assist him, but stay very clear from offering an opinion.   That said, it's not against the rules to simply offer the suggestions, advice, and even tell the player that would be your wish that he go here or there.  Not the right thing to do, but not against any rules.   We all know some coaches have even worked there way in to college jobs through having a sought after player. 

But the issue here is the Woodruff character, his status as a booster, his relationship with BC, and his involvement in his recruitment.  The rest of what you say, while accurate, is a smoke screen in all this.  Without Woodruff, there are no questions or issues.

So, rws, the part of BC's interview about him wanting a car and that since this got brought up (3 days after he "test drove" a car), the car was taken away, and now BC isn't happy that his Camaro got taken away.  Is that what made you feel all warm inside?

I haven't seen where anybody is saying BC got a car except you and Chizad. You were the one going on and on in February about Woodruff getting a Camaro. See thread: "Brent Calloway's handler has a new ride... " and posted the screenshot from Facebook. Wait, that was eerily similar to the picture of Corey Lemonier's picture on Facebook of him in front of his house sitting in that yellow Corvette. Hmmmmmm. Sounds like somebody needs to look into this Lemonier guy.  :taunt:

Anyway, Lee's story doesn't even mention the car. TideSports had the sense to ask the direct question because of this shit being floated on AU boards that the car was actually BC's. BC's point in that interview was that he can't get a car now, because even if he got a 25 year old clunker, morons like you are going to raise all kinds of hell. THAT was his point. You're just too much of a homer to see that, because you've already decided what you want to see.

I've said it once, and will say it again. You're just like those Alabama fans you claim to hate. You just wear a different color. You take half of a story, morph it a little, and pass it on as fact to whatever message board. Then that is reverberated throughout other boards. And so on, and so on. Before you know it, it is stated as truth. Our people did the S A M E shit with the Cam Newton scandal. You're no better.

Rws, will you feel all warm inside when the NCAA states that Darren Woodruff is considered a booster?  Also, the Camaro was supposedly going to be BC's new ride...might still be after everything blows over, if it goes in SPuat's favor.  I think your University saw "pre-existing relationship" and said "okay our invesigation is complete...no violations have occured." They fail to realize that Woodruff did not have a pre-existing relationship with BC before he became a Prospect and he started helping in his recruitment, apparently, before he snapped on his Russellville High helmet in the 9th Grade (he had to sit out his 9th Grade season because of transfer rules). 

This "helping" could consist of sorting out all of his letters from Universities, taking him on visits to SPuat, taking him to camps at SPuat and across the Country, answering phone calls for him...posing as a Russellville Coach, taking him to SPuat posing as a Russellville Coach, being told by former bama coach Curt Cignetti to get the fuck out, take BC back to SPuat after Coach Cignetti lands another job elsewhere.

Like I've said many times before, I don't own Orange and Blue glasses, my glasses are Crystal Clear.  Woodruff is the key, IMO.  Not Coach Goodwin or Brent...Woodruff is more of the key to this blowing up all over the bammers faces than "peaches", but "peaches" ain't too far behind.  Questions I'd ask Woodruff, why have you purchased 20 vehicles in the last 13 years? What were the makes and models of these vehicles?  How long did you have them?  Then I'd go to the dealership and ask for VIN #s of these vehicles if I suspected anything "fishy".  Then I'd run the #s through CARFAX to find out who owns them now...only if I felt that DW had been purchasing vehicles for other prospects.

And, that's just the questions about the Camaro that BC was supposedly going to receive.  Take another look at that photo, someone stated yesterday that the photo looked like it was taken in a High School parking lot and after looking as close as I can...I can't really tell, but it doesn't look like a dealership lot.  Again, that's just about the Camaro.  I haven't even begun to scratch the surface of the out of State trip to Pensacola to "get away", or other out of State trips (who knows? Apparently DW didn't think anything of it, until he tried to pass himself off as a coach).

One thing I do know for sure, I hope Woodruff, "Peaches", and BC keep telling their sides of the stories...maybe they can keep adding more to their original story or throw in a few haymakers at Veteran Coach Goodwin.
