First NIL Casualty

[Snaggletiger]

FSU got hosed by the committee in favor of the Tahd.  Their month just got worse, as the NCAA flexed its massive penis, and handed the first NIL violation penalties to the Noles.  The transgression?  The Offensive Line Coach, Alex Atkins, gave a ride to a potential portal recruit and his family, to meet with the CEO of a Noles Collective. It was confirmed that the CEO made an offer of $15K a month to the player, after which, Atkins gave them a ride back. There was no other involvement by Atkins outside of the transportation, and the player did not sign with the Noles.  The NCAA:

Two years of probation for Florida State.
A two-year show cause, a suspension from the next three regular season games, a two-week restriction on recruiting communication and a restriction from off-campus recruiting during fall 2023 for Atkins .
A three-year disassociation from the booster.
A one-year disassociation from the collective.
A $5,000 fine plus 1% of the football budget.
A 5% reduction in football scholarships over the two-year probationary period.
A reduction in recruiting official visits in the 2023-24 academic year.
A reduction in football recruiting communications for a total of six weeks during the 2023-24 and 2024-25 academic years.

UGA has a history as a rat.  Was told that the venerable Vince Dooley put the NCAA on Auburn during the Barfield years.

...... Dooley had his issues (like every human)..... but this was not one of them....

The late 70s NCAA dust up came straight out of tuscaloosa..... Dooley was NOT nor Ever part of that

( I will add this....you want to know the early history of animosity concerning AU and the NCAA, look no further than Walter Byers..... a true S.O.B. if there ever was one )

This is true and came with a very large "assist" from the Ol Ball Coach..... Mr. Spurrier.....and God bless both of those gentlemen for doing what they did 👍

( I should add that the biggest/largest squealers have always and continue to come from Tuscaloosa..... Mr. Phat Phil listened and learned and turn the tables...he is a solid 2nd place 👌)

It is nice to see some new/old posters. I wonder if it has anything to do with Godfather passing away. People seem to  feel more welcomed and comfortable as a result.
