theguru Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 I mentioned this in the other thread but I wonder how much more evidence the FBI has on Miller. I would be shocked if this was an isolated incident. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MBWC41 Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 I’m still amazed that a guy like Miller is the one making those calls. That’s what assistant coaches are for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gametime Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 I’m still amazed that a guy like Miller is the one making those calls. That’s what assistant coaches are for. Andy Miller has long had a reputation as a dirt bag that would push every possible angle to the max to land clients. Every head coach at the high major level knew this, and either tried to keep him out of their business or worked with him to facilitate access to their program. Just keep in mind, he's one of many and this is the story of only one of his runners. The expense reports are a baseline, but there is little to no proof in that. Wiretaps? Yeah. Now we're playing with fire... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jumper_Dad Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 How is Ayton still playing tonight? Vegas Baby!!! I heard earlier today that as of the 100% of the money coming in today was on Oregon and the point spread would only grow more if he didn't play. If he plays and they actually win or at least cover, Vegas will clean up! But seriously, I guess the thinking is that if he's later ruled ineligible then this entire season is toast anyways...might as well play him.
