They aren't the only two sec schools spending money like that. It's no big deal. This happens outside of the sec too....

Utilizing these services in not a problem. It's only a problem if a program is paying way, way more than the service is worth.

Alabama has one of the best compliance offices in the nation. Saban knows how to push the limits. If our compliance office is cool with it, I'm cool with it.

That's the question. Oregon paid a guy 25K who just happened to have very close ties with Seastrunk. Is 25K too much? I don't know.

I'm sure Ohio St. can match the dollars Alabama and Auburn are forking out for this type of service. Who cares if they are getting ripped off?

Changing subjects now.

What makes you believe Alabama has one of the best compliance offices in the nation?

I was just providing an example. Again, I'm not sure how much is too much.
My guess is that OSU does utilize some sort of recruiting service but I do not know this for certain.

Seeing as Saban can stretch any rule to its edge without getting into trouble. Dont bring up the textbook crap, that was under Shulas watch and it got fixed under Saban.
Now what makes you think we dont? Which school has more compliance issues to deal with right now, Ohio St. or Alabama?

I'm not saying Alabama doesn't. I just don't think that is something you as a fan could know. At least with any certainty.

Do you feel that 80k is too much to spend on these services?

I have no clue. There could be none. Of course, that would have nothing to do with whether the compliance department is any good or not.

I know the guy Oregon paid 25K had no services on his website listed for that high of an amount.
