There's a new book detailing the dirty underside of College football coming out soon called The System. In this book, Ricky Seals-Jones father claims that a SEC school, not A&M, offered Ricky $300,000 to sign with them. He also claims that another SEC school offered to double that offer to $600,000, a suite to live in, all expenses paid trips for him and his family and well over the allotted number of tickets for friends and family. Since we were the only school in contention for RSJ that was in the SEC other than A&M, he would have to be talking about us. Of course, Mr.Seals-Jones claims that they didn't take a cent of that money because of their morals.

My biggest gripe is that no school would pay $600,000 dollars for fricking Ricky Seals-Jones. If Cam Newton only got $250,000, than no way a Ricky Seals Jones got over two times that much. I call bullshite on the whole thing.
