OT: Tyler Bray is getting paid (funny story, not necessarily true)
November 14th, 2012 at 5:36 PM ^
...the junior uttered a statement sure to draw the NCAA's attention.
If only.
November 14th, 2012 at 5:40 PM ^
I think the SEC could hand out school-printed pamphlets on the compensation scale offered to recruits and the NCAA wouldn't notice.
November 14th, 2012 at 5:43 PM ^
Is it a violation if you get paid to win games and don't win any games?
November 14th, 2012 at 6:12 PM ^
It isn't a violation at all, they just might not get paid the following year.
November 14th, 2012 at 7:00 PM ^
and Mississippi State say no
November 14th, 2012 at 11:04 PM ^
Not if the payment was actually a donation to your father's church. You can get reinstated, win the heisman, the MNC, and be the first overall pick in the NFL draft in that case.
November 15th, 2012 at 9:18 AM ^
Mark Ingram wasn't the first overall pick....

The NCAA is a joke.

I don't know about anyone else here, but I would be livid if I was paying Tennessee kids and getting the results they have gotten since easing Phil Fulmer out the door.

"The only payment I recieve is free school"
-said no sec football player ever
November 14th, 2012 at 7:45 PM ^
do they take returns?
November 14th, 2012 at 8:45 PM ^
The payments came on time until I was told I had a medical hardship
-25% of Alabama signees
/s (obviously)

Sorry. It is Vandy-UT week. Vandy has won twice in the last 30 years I believe.
November 14th, 2012 at 9:53 PM ^
I really hope vandy wins

Is it too late for Tenn to get a refund and money back on their investment. It sure hasn't paid off or worked for them.

Sounds like a pretty harmess comment to me, but because it's the SEC, people are bound to pay closer attention to it. Just a poor choice of words by the QB.
November 15th, 2012 at 1:11 AM ^
it sounds like he was answering a question about whether he was an NFL prospect, and he is quoted as responding, "I couldn't care less. That's what you guys are paid to write about and talk about." I presume he then said, "I'm paid to win games."
So my interpretation is that he mistakenly used the same construction to contrast his role with that of reporters. It's an understandable mistake. Still funny, though, especially his attempt to recover from the gaffe.

He got the short end of that deal. If you get a free education for winning football games at Tennessee then the whole roster's likely paying for college. Should've gone to Auburn, or Arkansas, or Ole Miss, or Mizzou instead. You get a free SEC education for losing, there.
