Love the college game. Except for the NCAA. They hate the players, pure and simple. to suspend a guy for talking to an ex-player is so not in the best interest of the student that the NCAA can only admit they care about protecting the institution and not what they stand for. Look at it like this. If you go to school would it be prudent of you to talk to as many people in your field who have more experience in your field so that you can make the best choice for your career? You would be stupid not too, and any educater would encourage you to do so. But the NCAA doesn't want the student athlete to learn as much about the business they are getting into. They just want to protect corrupt ADs the NCAA is riddled with.
Great TD to Patrick. That will light up FFB scoreboards everywhere.
You must be talking about Dez Bryant? Actually he wasn't suspended for talking to and hanging out with Dion Sanders, he was suspended for lying about it. He didn't actually do anything wrong, but he thought he may have, so he lied to NCAA heads and said he hadn't talked to or been with Dion. Either way he should not have been suspended, he didn't actually do anything wrong. He was scared he may have and made a mistake not being honest with officials, I could see him missing a game for that but not the season.
that is the whole of it, he felt he had to cover up what he should have been encouraged to do.
Zona looks like they gave up. Wish I hadn't of picked them up this week.
I think, therefore I am. I think fantasy, therefore I am unreal?

I agree with you man. Still the NCAA product is more entertaining than the NFL, at least to me it is.
