Janzen Jackson's stunt was the worst thing I've ever witnessed. He used LSU, Darren Myles, and his MOM(sure he was waiting on her to get here from Cali). Funny thing though, LSU avoided alot of embarrassment IMO, by not getting DM or JJ in that whole debachle. LSU definately won as it turned out!!

Plenty I can think of.
Pretty much all major programs cheat. You can't control boosters. I've heard some shadier things but the one on Patrick Peterson was pretty interesting in his recruitment. Don't know if that was just bad blood from Miami or LSU really did cheat to get him. The PP incident also involved Dwayne Bowe from the same booster.
Sentrel Henderson was hilarious. Its funny how bad USC cheated these past years and did it so much in the open, they deserved to get slapped.

PP's non INT against bama last year and the fact they didn't have a holding call against them since the USCe game.

Funny you say that about the Camaro. I went to HS with a WR that went to UT a few years ago. Family didn't have money, etc. He committed to UT, a few weeks later he shows up to school with a white camaro w/ 20s on it.

When a nationally acclaimed sportswriter claims that Michael Beasley received $200,000 from Dalonte Hill to play at Kansas State, and that many of the NYC guys at Georgia Tech like Kenny Anderson and Stephon Marbury also received six figures.

The DOOLEY media day speech.
He recited a prepared list of the things he has his team work on, and he couldnt remember CAREER.

I was thinking OJ Mayo.
Didn't the Fab Four receive all kinds of stuff as well?

Im sure about the exact details, but ive heard shady stuff went on to get Seimone Augustus to lsu. Apparently there was some type of bidding war for her services and the numbers involved were quite high if i remember correctly.

I was thinking the same thing. Especially considering that basketball recruiters are not only competing with other colleges, but with paychecks in the NBA.
