Miami Vice Squad

Uncategorized

Remember SMU? Remember the Death Penalty? Well, there’s a good chance that Miami Hurricane football is about to get their just sentence. The scandal that has rocked the sports world in the last 24 hours is about to claim one of the “biggies” in NCAA football. Regardless of much needed reform in the NCAA, the violations that have been reported are stunning. A booster supplying money, cars, yacht trips, jewelry, televisions and other gifts to a list of players including Vince Wilfork, Jon Beason, Antrel Rolle, Devin Hester, Willis McGahee and the late Sean Taylor. The booster also claimed he paid for nightclub outings, sex parties, restaurant meals and in one case, an abortion for a woman impregnated by a player.

This is beyond ugly. This is an horrific example of the worst slime and sleaze that can happen in sports at any level. It will be interesting to see how the NCAA deal with this. Miami is big money to the NCAA and it’s televised audience.

  1. GoodMorning from Omaha,

    IF the NCAA can sluff this off like they did the Ohio State mess…the game is over, literally. Might as well have the NFL start paying or at least reimbursing colleges because all they are is a MLB type farm system for them.

    I don’t care if its “dear ol’ Nebraska U” USC, Oregon or the Buffs and Rams…IF the rules are not going to be enforced then they don’t exist. It should be fairly simple. Not just the palyers but coaches should also be sanctioned, expelled, jailed, whatever.

    Strive for excellence, nothing but your best.

  2. Part of the problem is that the NCAA has way too many rules.One rull may say that you are in compliance but another rule will say you are in violation. The NCAA needs to get it’s act together. If OSU and Miami do not receive the death penalty this will only complete my disgust for the NCAA.
