    Paying Players

I know they get an education, room and board, athletic swag, great medical care, bowl swag, etc. But I also understand the frustration that these men generate billions in revenue - a new lazy river at the athletic complex doesn't...

    Luginbill on Slow Recruiting

    Terrific quote from Lugs here about what's happening at Bama, Auburn, UGA and other schools: "B/c coaches are taking back some control and offers have stipulations on what is committable.

    Awful Announcing accuses CNS of pulling schollies

    The pretext of all this is Randy Edsall, but this passage was really weird: "Finebaum then goes on to say “Nick Saban’s been doing this from the first day,” and there certainly have been plenty of criticisms of Saban for oversigning and pulling scholarships late (in some cases, after players...
