Anybody with twitter needs to link that article and send it to people like svp and anybody else that seems pro LSU. I've already done it.

SVP has probably seen it already.

Sasw some suspect testimony in that vid. All that is needed to debunk the SI article is to take a camera in the club and see if there is a VIP area. Also that young kid needs to learn that 2500$ is a bribe. "They tried to bribe me, and also they tried to give me 2500$ to say......." NCAA can't do anything on hearsay, I hope. Right now from that vid and the article it looks like he said he said. PS. I RA'ed for sticky

Dude were you masturbating while filming this. All that heavy breathing in the background was pretty distracting.
I'll try to update the video w/o the sound effects

Club owner said that no players got in the club free unless they get there before 11 when EVERYONE gets in free. Also said that SI pressured them to admit that players received free drinks but that no players had ever received VIP treatment at this particular club
Nice reporting.

I am surprised nobody is acknowledging that this story may be fact. Club owner isn't going to admit to it. I have serious doubt that SI is going around bribing people to get their stories.
What motive does SI have to come to BR and do all of this if it isn't true?
That said, I don't trust SI on this either. I'm just going to sit back and wait for all of this to unfold.

im sure its probably true but its a pretty minor thing and doesnt look like they can prove it so its kind of a nonstory.
Posted on 10/17/12 at 8:13 am to TexasTiger1185
I'm still curious as to why we're not hearing more on this. Was anything on the news this morning?

Give me 25K, and I might give you the "dealer"..lol... You cannot expect these folks to rat anyone out. They know that, if they just deny deny, they will get paid in the long run.

I just canceled my subscription to SI.

Actually the risk of them being caught with fabricated stories is way higher than the reward of selling a few extra magazines. They could lose a LOT of subscribers.
Not just because this story is untrue, but because it causes people to wonder what other stories they print are untrue.
