13 Unsolved mysteries from the Robert Bentley Scandal
Quote
How deep was UA in the muck?
 
So many cords in the the Bentley affair run back to Tuscaloosa, Alabama needs to know what was the deal at Bama. We know the University paid the Masons’ company, ostensibly for billboards. Those payments were made through, of all things, Paypal, and were part of a no-bid contract.

Meanwhile, the university participated in potentially lucrative consulting work with the Gulf State Park hotel reconstruction — a conspicuous project, the ins and outs of which have not been sufficiently explored or explained.

Whatever the deal was there, it was enough for the university to withdraw once the deal became a public spectacle, and curiously the university’s lawyer, Cooper Shattuck, resigned in the aftermath.

And finally, the NCAA decides Bama is allowed to cheat.
http://www.ncaa.org/about/resources/media-center/news/former-alabama-assistant-football-coach-acted-unethically
Quote
A former Alabama assistant football coach acted unethically when he provided false or misleading information about impermissible recruiting contacts, according to a Division I Committee on Infractions panel. The university also committed Level III recruiting violations when a second former assistant football coach had impermissible off-campus contact with a recruit during an evaluation period and members of the football staff impermissibly allowed a prospect’s youth football coach to attend a recruiting visit at the prospect’s home.
Quote
The panel used the Division I membership-approved infractions penalty guidelines to prescribe the following measures:

Public reprimand and censure for the university.

A two-year show-cause period for the former assistant coach from April 14, 2017, through April 13, 2019. During that period, any NCAA member school employing the former coach in an athletics role, including his current school, must restrict him for all off-campus recruiting activities and require him to attend NCAA Regional Rules Seminars in 2017 and 2018.

The former assistant coach requested an expedited penalty case to contest the length of his show-cause penalty. After the hearing, the panel determined the penalty was appropriate because the former assistant coach had a responsibility as a part of the NCAA membership to provide truthful information during the investigation and he failed to do so during the interviews.

A withholding of the former assistant coach and his replacement from off-campus recruiting and telephone contact for 39 days, from April 22 through May 31, 2016 (self-imposed by the university).
The former assistant coach involved in a Level III violation was prohibited from participating in any off-campus recruiting for 30 days from Sept. 25, 2015, through Oct. 25, 2015, and suspended from one game during the 2015 football season (self-imposed by the university).

A disassociation of the booster (self-imposed by the university).

A $5,000 fine (self-imposed by the university).

Basically, just punish the coach. For Bama, it's $5,000 and "public reprimand" (lol yeah right).

Love this quote at the end of the story on Bama having 97 staff members.

Even if Alabama’s staff size is that large, it probably doesn’t have a huge impact on the outcome of most game’s given that the Crimson Tide have the most talent in college football and have the best coach as well.

Clemson and Dabo would like a word with you.

Has any program ever had an active coach get a show cause penalty and NOT go on probation? 

I'm going to guess no.

"I couldn't eat much, but I had to drink water and Gatorade," Foster said. "Then a few coaches said something about me being too light. And I'm a coach-pleaser. I don't care what everybody thinks, but I care what coaches think. So I drank and ate as much as I could without throwing up. Then I went in there, drinking and drinking water, trying to flush out my system from whatever was making me sick and trying to keep my weight up and took the test."

See, what had happened was....I was eatin' then I wasn't eatin'.  Then I was drinkin' but I wasn't eatin' and then the coaches say "You need to eat and drink" but I couldn't do both at the same time but I really concentrated on eatin' then drinkin' as much as I could drink and eat.  Then I took the test and that's what had happened.

Five statements of WISDOM
1. You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity, by legislating the wealth out of prosperity.
2. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving.
3. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else.
4. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it.
5. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friends, is the beginning of the end of any nation.
