What Now?!


I still say SC got the shaft unwarranted. They have one player, Reggie Bush, that accepted gifts and mostly his parents are guilty. SC has not been pinned with any evidence that would hold up in court yet they still get nailed to the wall with the current players, most in high school or even Jr. high school, suffering. I still maintain that SC was the best team in college football in 1994 and that Reggie Bush was the greatest player on the field in 1995. SC fans will ALWAYS count to eleven with those national championships! ELEVEN AP NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS, BABY!!! SEVEN HEISMAN'S!!! Fight On for Ole' SC!

NFL agent, Josh Luchs, admits to Sports Illustrated that he paid college players or provided them with other perks in addition to cash. In fact he states that only JJ Stokes, Keyshawn Johnson and Dana Stubblefield refused money or gifts. Sad? Yes. Surpising? No. So my question is, "Now what?!" It seems to me that the following teams need to forfeit wins and championships based on this confession, should it be collaborated...which shouldn't be hard as some players have already admitted it.
  • 1990 Colorado Buffaloes - 11 wins, 1 tie Big 8 title, Orange Bowl victory and a National Championship
  • 1991 Colorado Buffaloes - 8 wins, 2 ties, Big 8 title and Blockbuster Bowl victory
  • 1990 Tennessee Volunteers - 9 wins, 2 ties and Sugar Bowl victory
  • 1991 Tennessee Volunteers - 9 wins
  • 1993 Arizona Wildcats - 9 wins, Fiesta Bowl victory and PAC 10 Championship
  • 1994 Portland State Vikings - 8 wins
  • 1994 Washington State Cougars - 8 wins
  • 1995 Michigan State Spartans - 6 wins and 2 ties
  • 1996 Washington State Cougars - 5 wins
  • 1997 Washington State Cougars - 8 wins and PAC 10 Co-Championship
  • 1999 USC Trojans - 6 wins
  • 1990-2005 UCLA Bruins - Pretty much every victory, PAC 10 Championship and Bowl victory
To name a few....so, what now? Apparently nothing. Keep in mind...this is only one of thousands of agents coming forward. They are all guilty of this. The NCAA has a four year law of statutes. It seems like they choose who and when to bust and that it is truly a fascist organization. Players best interest, my butt! Players are getting paid all over the place and the worse thing is that they get busted for a couple hundred here and a couple hundred here while the NCAA and the universities rake in the money. The NFL players are arguing that they are basically slaves to the NFL owners and that is nothing compared to the slavery happening in college football. I say pay the players a small salary and let them at least not live in poverty JUST to prove they are amateurs. Maybe this will keep them from being tempted by the occasional hand out from these snakes in the grass agents.

Since your a USC fan and don't really understand this I will try to explain it to you the best I can and in simple terms...

The Reason is
Every non-USC fan was sick and tired of USC winning all the time thus we/they (non-USC fans) made a big deal out of a fairly common practice.
