re: Your team can only run one play over and over all year on offense. what is it?
Posted by sbrian3915 on 8/5/14 at 1:11 pm
I had NCAA Football 98 for my PC. I once used Nebraska for a season. I used 4 offensive plays: I Formation toss right, toss left, option right, option left. I didn't throw a single pass the entire season. Also only punted like 5 times all year.
In real life, if I had to pick one, it would b...

re: Husker coach Bo Pelini implies that Ole Miss has a "bagman"
Posted by sbrian3915 on 7/31/14 at 3:03 pm
Here is one more byproduct of the bagman system...it's made it harder for smaller schools to compete with the biggies.
To be an effective bagman, you have to be pretty well off financially to float the necessary money to your targeted recruits/players, be connected enough to get the needed ancill...

[quote]If the NCAA was serious about stopping it they could organize some sting operations pretty easily. [/quote]
I think the issue is that NCAA rules are designed for things that the schools do wrong. With Bagmen, the school isn't doing anything wrong. The school doesn't officially know. The...
re: Husker coach Bo Pelini implies that Ole Miss has a "bagman"
Posted by sbrian3915 on 7/31/14 at 8:53 am
I think there are some uneducated knuckleheads on this board. There are basically 4 ways schools cheat:
1. Direct payments from the school...this is what SMU did.
2. Indirect payments through boosters or other people tied to programs: here is how some schools get busted. This is basically w...

Posted by sbrian3915 on 7/30/14 at 4:49 pm
You really have to admire the dedication of good bagmen. There is a code of honor in their craft.
They keep their distance from the school they love.
They avoid bootster organizations. Many don't even have season tickets. They avodi anythign that could connect them directly to the school.

Posted by sbrian3915 on 7/30/14 at 4:23 pm
Ole Miss has a bag man?
Ole Miss probably has about 10-20 bagmen. As does every single other major football program in the country. The bagman system of illicit payments to players is well known by everyone, and the NCAA is basically powerless to stop it because the bagmen do a every good job o...
re: Probably a dumb question regarding the SEC Network.
Posted by sbrian3915 on 7/30/14 at 3:37 pm
I'm assuming that SEC Network's online access will work just like WatchESPN.
WatchESPN asks you to log into your cable provider account online. ESPN's site recognizes that and then gives you access.
