....but he is. First he creates this new weird rule, seemingly because of Kiffin but he has a bigger plan and the perfect time to execute, then he get's Urban to break it almost instantly. Now people are going to think he has no favoritism towards Florida. Genius I tell you.

If you fine CUM for a first time offense then you obviously must suspend CLK for the next.
Oops, total brain cramp. I'll fix it.

This was pure luck that CUM screwed up. I believe that CUM thought he was safe in what he was saying. Slive took advantage to show he "show's no favoritism." Obviously the blind squirrel found his nut in CUM.

The idea of 'genius' (ie. his doppleganger lookalike Einstein) is tongue in cheek. He did something, but still a far cry from what he told Lane in Reprimand #2:

". . . The next time you, or a member of your staff, make public comments of this nature, you will be suspended from all coaching duties for one or more games, and the institution may be subjected to a substantial fine. "

Slime left an out for himself. There is a clause that says that the amount of the fine and/or the length of the suspension is up to him alone. We all know that 11 of the coaches in the SEC will be fined, and only 1 will be suspended.

I cannot believe there were Florida fans speculating that this would happen and it was all part of a plan to snare Kiffin. I have even read where they are saying that Urbie was being a martyr to take the nations eyes off of Spikes. Hilarious stuff!!!

In the reprimand letter to CLK and in the letter that went out to all coaches there was no and/or. It stated you would be suspended, the SEC office when confronted of this said it was a typo. I call BS and Slive is a weasel, If CLK would have said what CUM said, he would have been suspended.

If CLK gets Coach of the Year will Slive have to present the trophy? Now that would be priceless!

Not only did the letter say "AND", fricking Slive SAID "AND" in a phone interview with the Associated Press on October 30th as proven by this story: SEC Coaches Threatened with Fines And Suspensions - Central Florida News 13 (4th paragraph of story).

So, was it a TYPO and a MIS-STATEMENT? I don't think so, it was suppose to be "AND" and when Meyer got hit with it, it changed to "OR".

We've given this moron too much power to be discretionary in his punishments.

Two different letters. One was only to CLK. The second to all SEC coaches had the "or."
