Stewart Mandel AGAIN badmouthing Les on oversigning

Will this never end? In an article about an answer Saban gave about oversigning, Mandel had this to say (Saban's portion is the first sentence and Mandel's response follows):
quote:
And we do have some guys that may grayshirt. Let me address that too, because I think there is a lot of criticism in grayshirting that is unfair.
On this he's right. The fault in Machen's pitch against grayshirting was that he lumped together cases like LSU's Elliott Porter -- whom Les Miles reprehensibly pulled a scholarship from last year after Porter had already moved into his dorm -- with, say, former Alabama quarterback John Parker Wilson, who willingly waited a year in order to play for his beloved Crimson Tide.

And what's he say about Chizik? Or outside the SEC, Kiffin?

Oversigning is not against the rules. The scholarship is a one yr deal and like every other scholarship is based on performance. When coaches quit getting fired for not winning their respective divisions then football can go back to being an extracurricular activity designed for the studentsenjoyment. USC signes 29 along with a lot of other schools. Quit letting this stuff bother you.

If you have a distaste for the truth, step into your mother's closet in your mother's house you live in.

Porter has a grayshirt and declined.
Mandel is a douche

He left out the part where Porter has left the Kentucky full ride and is now at LSU and will probably work towards a scholarship.
Those minute details. Who needs them?

Did he say anything about the amount of medical hardships Saban tosses out?
I heard the other day that in 10 years Ohio St has had 4 medical hardships.
Bama has 12 in 4 years, half of the entire SEC. I just don't buy that 12 players have had career ending injuried in 4 years. If they have, it's time for a new training staff.

I'm expecting Gary Danielson to make a comment about this phenomenon of oversigning during a future CBS broadcast. In fact, I'm predicting he will during an LSU game. I'm also betting he uses the word "reprehensible" in the same sentence as Les Miles.
Read Mandels's article and know that that is as much research Gary D will put into this subject before antagonizing Les Miles in front of a national audience.
