I'm having a hard time deciding how I feel about the Tigers' Booster situation. Truth be told, I'm an Alabama Fan, in terms of SEC, and anything that hints of cheating sends a little spurge of joy through my body. Be that as it may, coaches and players seem to have little control over what financial supporters do.
And lets be honest, whose to say this isn't happening in colleges all over the country? Its a universal problem, kind of like steroids, I guess, some colleges just get singled out...
My take: College Kids are broke. Especially kids who grew up with next to nothing, and are only attending college because of an athletic scholarship. If someone slipped $500 to you for getting an A on a test, would you turn them down? Would you tell your professors?
Auburn's coach, or players aren't the problem. Self-righteous boosters, who think the rules don't apply to them, are.
