Florida football program violated NCAA recruiting rules

The really crazy thing is, Florida getting popped because they spent ten minutes too long at a HS and allowed a bunch of 7-7 guys to tour the campus, and this is taken so seriously, meanwhile Georgia and Bama signees (and family members) all end up with Range Rovers and upper-scale apartments, or good paying “jobs” at various establishments in Tuscaloosa and Athens.

A lot of this is in reference to 2019-2020 punishments? I don't understand.

Also this:



I'll wait with baited breath for Bama sanctions/probations.

It's ridiculous. You can't tell me with a straight face that Bama doesn't do this same thing on a regular basis, at the very least. Yet, crickets.

Ole Miss, LSU, now Florida? LOL - sure. Bama is squeaky clean.

They deemed “Mullen didn’t promote an atmosphere of compliance” because he was THE coach who spent too much time (15 minutes) at the High School of whichever recruit, a violation at the time but is now apparently “permissible.”

It’s so serious that Mullen has a presser today at 1:30 on Cotton Bowl preparations. 😂

And apparently, whatever Mickey Mouse penalties imposed have already been served. So just to reset. We’ve got LSU already imposing penalties on themselves in an effort to get ahead of NCAA issues, Tennessee is under investigation, Florida was under investigation, but guess what, Georgia and Bama are doing things perfectly. Nothing to see at those schools, just perfection in recruiting.

Gator fans, at least when you cheat, you still win.

Pruitt cheats and still loses.

Don’t feel too bad. Lol

My issue is, UF and Tennessee are both doing the same sh!t and a helluva lot less than UGA and Bama, and aTm are doing, but we get the NCAA knocking on our doors.

This is why no matter how much UF, UT, and now LSU try they will never have the same roster as Bama and UGA. It's not a level recruiting playing field. Go ahead and count Bama and UGA as the perennial playoff favorites from the SEC until something is done about it.

At this point, and I’m serious here, as long as cash is not being given to recruits or families, I don’t think it should be a recruiting violation.

Such a harsh penalty. Aren't head coaches already highly limited as per off campus recruiting anyways?. Is this kinda like the LSU self-imposed "bowl ban"???

This is a warning shot. Next time Florida plays Alabama, they'll know they're supposed to lose by more than just 6.

Ah yes, this grand NCAA conspiracy punished Florida for competing with Bama by imposing penalties over two years ago. The Bama-NCAA cabal has now perfected time travel.

Do you think Bama does these kind of things, and if so, how come there are no show causes and probations?

Every school does this. This is all minor stuff. Self-report this and the penalties are negligible. Heck, these particular penalties don't even qualify as a slap-on-the-wrist. They didn't lose a single scholarship, so who gives a crap?

By golly, if you’re gonna do this, do it right!
According to the agreement, members of the coaching staff also had impermissible contact with approximately 127 prospects when seven nonscholastic football teams visited the campus and toured the football facilities on their way to a tournament in Tampa.

Mullen gets a show cause. Why doesn’t that happen to Saban if every school does this?

The selective enforcement is the issue, not the penalties themselves.

Who gives a crap? I get you are a Bama fan so you can’t understand the privilege. But for the rest of the mortals in the SEC this ‘ish gets old.

And this particular show cause means what exactly? Do you expect Mullen to be changing jobs in the next year?

What "enforcement?" These penalties are trivial.

Pointing to this as some example of unfair treatment is pretty pathetic, even for your typical fever dreams. This is the kind of stuff schools self-report every year. Because UF didn't, they gave the NCAA a chance to prove that they still exist. And even then, they didn't even announce it until almost all of the "penalties" had already expired.

Florida didn't lose a single snap worth of eligibility, didn't miss out on a bowl game, didn't vacate or forfeit any wins, and didn't lose a single scholarship. And to top it off, Mullen's off-campus "ban" came during a period when all off-campus recruiting was prohibited due to Covid. Who gives a crap about any of this?

It’s the principle of it. Again, being on the good end of this stuff I don’t expect you would understand, or get it.

Come back to me when king Saban gets a worthless show cause.

You should talk to a professional. And by that I mean you could call Indianapolis to report all the things Bama is clearly doing, or you could talk to a shrink. Take your pick.
