Some of the players suspended didn't report their cards stolen so they'll be cleared sooner than those who decided to double dip.


Scarlett seemed confident on IG that he'll play vs Vols.

Only one that matters since Callaway is done. So of course he will. We knew this when it happened.

It does and not just athletes. I worked at a local community college for a couple of years and this is very common. I would imagine this will be a bigger deal if they stole enough stuff to warrant a felony. I don't know the rules in the state of Florida.

I understand the legal issue for sure. What I mean is, if they were to play this Saturday and Florida beats us then all these players are found guilty of credit card fraud, they wouldn't necessarily be made to vacate any wins. So they're doing the right thing "morally" I guess - I'm just surprised a major football program would do the right thing. Especially with a coach on the hot seat.

As Mock mentioned earlier, the athletes are the only ones who receive those cards with money. So, if they didn't use them according to policy or used them to get extra cash, it can be treated as an impermissible benefit.

When I first read the story, I said that it appeared that the NCAA issue can be more significant than the criminal issue. As a defense attorney, you can negotiate a pay back of the restitution and make it all go away. But the NCAA may not be as kind.

Are we sure only the athletes get these cards? When I was in school anyone with scholarships/grants in excess of the cost of attendance got a debit card where the excess money would be loaded.

One line that will be hard for me not to try is Clemson ML -160 or spread at -3.

My only hesitation is Lamar in primetime, what he did last yr to Clemson, and at Louisville. Clemson is a complete team. Louisville is not. Their defense is trash and now it's Sirmon as D.C. Who will likely get taking to the shed by Clemson offense.

Hard not to try Clemson with the better defense and an offense that can score with Louisville

I don't know for sure, but they are still using a benefit of being a student athlete to gain an advantage by receiving more money. I would bet that a regular student with a card could have theirs revoked if they violate the policies. It's the same principle.

That's true. If they get treatment different from a regular student then it's an NCAA issue.

He was asked why multiple teams have been lining up a yard from the ball.
