Well, if they rule like they did for Auburn's Scam Gate, they will assume that only the father knew about it. Since the son didn't know about, no foul.

There is a lot more evidence here than there was against Bama and Albert Means. I know what LSU should get... But who knows about the NCAA.

LSU recruiting will take a hit.
Guys not already on campus will have time for a change of heart.
AND...
Somebody will be thrown under the bus.

It seems that every couple of years the NCAA finds someone to throw under the bus, you know, to make a statement of singling someone out for look at us and how we are on top of things and we will not put up with this kind of cheating & etc. This could be it ….. or not.

I don't want to see LSU on probation. We beat them every year so I would rather they stay good.
With how the 11 others at the time, conspired and reviled in our misfortune, and kicked us while we were down... I couldnt care less if every other SEC team other than Texas A&M and Missouri was put on probation.

Agreed. If LSU falls into the dumpster, someone else will take their place. Probably Texas A&M.

Well, if his father is a preacher and the "funds" went through his church, then the feds have no issue, and the NCAA has no bite...:cool2:

If everyone is honest, we'd all admit that if this story broke at Bama most everyone would be looking for how to make this seem innocuous (or at least unattached to the university).

The reality is that the NCAA has made it clear (over the last decade) that unless there is a direct connection between the student athlete and someone employed by the school, nothing will happen...

Agreed, and add the fact that all of the players involved are no longer at LSU, and that Miles is also gone, and this leads to a big, fat nothing burger.

We've also learned that the other option, when they have you absolutely dead to rights, is that almost nothing will happen.

At least legit crime families handle their internal affairs very cleanly. The NCAA Mob Family is run more like A box of chocolates. You never know what you are gonna get.
