Charles Robinson is clearly much better than Thayer Evans, and I don't think the SI story on OK State is really a big deal, but this isn't fair. The vast majority of sports scandals do not have huge paper trails because it is in everyone's incentive to have the paper trail as obscure/minimal as possible.
It's not just the fact that their is little to no paper evidence backing it put, it's the fact that there is substantial paper evidence refuting it. Once his key witness gets caught in one lie how can you believe the rest?

The most salacious accusations involving guys who have been dead for years doesn't help either.
It's easy to make bullshite accusations about someone who can't respond to them.

The transcript situation is bad and shows a lot of laziness on the part of Evans, but what is the other evidence?
Even the he said/(s)he/said stuff from the players in the article is weak. Look at this post from Deadspin, which hates the article. The refutations coming from the players is weak as hell. The only one that sounds believable is the "Drugs are everywhere" comment, but that doesn't do much to diminish the rest of the article about the OK State drug testing system.
