October 19, 200718 yr You accused me of not knowing the facts. I'd like to know what facts you're speaking of. I can't find one answer, let alone two, in any of your responses. Doesn't look like anyone else can either. You've been constantly asked to provide quotes to these "answers" and you constantly fail to provide them. Keep going though. I think we're all enjoying watching you squirm. I don't squirm. If anything, you're providing enjoyment for me, riling up UK fans is what I do on here. Reminds me of the episode of Scrubs where the janitor takes JD out i nthe middle of nowhere and drops him off. He gets out and is like where are we? The Janitor (who has for the entire length of the show tormented and poked and prodded JD) looks at him and says, IT'S BEEN 4 YEARS HOW DO YOU NOT GET HOW THIS WORKS! And pulls away....I am the janitor, you my friend are JD!
October 19, 200718 yr Not the same. Oklahoma = making excessive calls IU = particpating in unallowed conference calls Cheating while still under restrictions from the last time you cheated = priceless Sure, technically different, but both improper phone contact with recruits. If you want to ease your own conscience by denying he's in trouble AGAIN for basically the same thing, go ahead. Its like getting busted on parole. It could be the same (relatively minor) thing that got you on probation, but you're going to jail the second time.

October 19, 200718 yr Parole and probation are different things....:confused: Sorry my knowledge of those two institutions isn't up to yours. You must have more experience.
October 19, 200718 yr Sorry my knowledge of those two institutions isn't up to yours. You must have more experience. My Criminal Justice degree would back your statement up...:thumb:

October 19, 200718 yr I'm not an IU fan, but I'm with 98...I don't condone it, but I don't see where this is a huge issue. Penalties have been handed out and hopefully the point has been made and understood. It's just something for people who don't like the Hoosiers to get pounce on...if Billy G had done this, I'm sure most would be saying it's no big deal and a secondary violation...sound familiar? I view this about like the thread on Brooks comments about the SEC and Souther Cal a few weeks ago...not a big deal and just something for people who don't like the program in question to pounce on and make more of it than is necessary.

Penalties have been handed out and hopefully the point has been made and understood. THATS the problem. The point wasn't understood the first time. Its not about extra phone calls, its about a demonstrated inability to follow the rules. Even after being caught and punished once already.
October 19, 200718 yr If you would actually read the thread you would see that one of my first posts in here said, I'm not condoning...... Wow. But your contradicting yourself. You say you don't condone his actions then you say its not a big deal. I believe there has to be some middle ground in this situation. You act like its okay to break the rules as long as IU gets big time prospects.

I do not think he should be fired, run out of town or anything else. Obviously I'm not condoning it, b/c things of this nature if they keep happening could turn into something that actually affect the program, this does not. If it did, it would be a bigger deal.
