2 LSU players were recently arrested. Now 3 Clemson players failed drug tests. If this was Ohio State, Urban Meyer would be catching HELL. #Buckeyes
ESPN and the twitter mob would be all over that. The hate for Ohio State is so blatant GO BUCKS! Merry Christmas to Buckeye Nati
Don’t forget about the three Alabama players failing the drug test I could see where that could get overlooked with no coverage on @espn

I don't know if I'd go that far but college sports does have more than it's fair share of corruption for two reasons.
1) Money
2) Us. The fans. We have, over years taken what should be a competition between colleges primarily for the students, by the students and of the students and transformed in into a minor league sports especially in football and basketball., masquerading as college competitions.

OMG.. Imagine the Stress he was under.. making $7M a year, having his car washed, gassed up and serviced for him. All this travel arrangements made. Clothing layed out by Nike, Dry Cleaning brought to his office. Hair cuts at work...Assistants to bring him coffee, Assistant Coaches doing the recruiting trips and working with the players.
This all had to be far too much for one man and his cyst to endure...

I've had conversations with current and former assistant coaches and one former head coach of a major college football program. All of them were well paid, but the things they tell me about the stress they are under makes me wonder why anyone would subject them self to that.
