That for years schools like Ohio State, Penn State, Notre Dame, and UNC have held themselves above all others as some sort of beacon of "what's right" in college sports? And surprise, surprise all four have had major scandals in the last 2 years.
Tressel plays it buy the book...except when he continually covered up NCAA violations
Manti Te'o had a heartwarming story that propelled him and his team to awards and honors....except that it was all made up and the school tried to cover it up
UNC is a prestigious university that holds it athletes to higher standards than other schools....except for the fact that they had practically and entire program set up to pass athletes along
Joe Paterno was an example of the perfect coach/leader of men...except for the fact that he and high level admins knew about child rape and did nothing to stop it.
All these schools are hypocrites of the highest order. They can say what they want about the SEC but none of our schools ever tried to pull any stunts like these.

Yep you're right, SEC is as clean as it gets...
Auburn, not even talking about Cam Newton and his daddy, wasn't Auburn on probabtion when they went undefeated with Bowden coaching them.
Wasn't Tennessee and Bruce Pearl in sometype of hot water with the NCAA.
And Arkansas had a coach with a wife and a mistress, and then they got a coach that could even remember the team he was talking about.
And Kentucky has Calapari, the coach that leaves and then the school suffers NCAA sanctions, just ask Memphis.
And wasn't there some talk about Alabama players and a tailor...
Yo JoetheOrge... when you start point fingers about other schools you are tempting carma to bitch slap you up the side of the head.

Here's the difference. What happens in the south STAYS in the south. You're not clean. Not even a little bit but no one is going to break up the fraternity. Respect for that.

no way. google Albert Means. Tennessee set up a very elaborate scheme to catch Bama offering $200,000 to Mean's coach.
We also turned in Tennessee and Kiffen a couple years ago for sending the prostitutes...sorry Orange Pride girls...to Lattimores HS and reserving a room and inviting players back to it after their HS game. Kiffypoo the pimp.

FWIW, Paterno did what he preached which was graduate players, win football games and not cheat. No one ever addressed him about the "other stuff", so you can't really call him a fraud.
Just sayin.

Alright, but that "sainthood" belief was held outside of PSU as well. The media kind of placed that on him.
Still doesn't change that what he stood for was valid and true. The fradulent part were how people precieved him... not what he professed he was. Therefor, you cannot say he was a fraud.
