Well you guys would definitely hate me then, because there's not a thing he's done (or may have done) that I wouldn't do.

be honest who here thinks that the top tier college football players dont get some compensation, whether it be gifts, money, or "tutors" to do their schoolwork??

Shit happens all the time and always will, the NCAA just needs a scapegoat from time to time to divert attention away from the corrupt ways in college sports

At age 20, somebody offered you 150k you wouldn't take it?

Cam is the man, I wish him the best of luck

Hell, Vince Young was a functional moron and he went top 5. It'll be interesting to see where this guy ends up.

This and this. Seriously though, there's soooo many people that bash Cam who if they were in his shoes would have done the same exact thing. I'm not saying everyone, I'm just saying a lot of the people who call him a scumbag/POS/whatever else.

Having my teammates stripped of a national championship would not be worth 150k to me. The black eye it would give the school that gave me an opportunity to showcase my talents and gave me a free education would not be worth it.

If there are 80 kids on the team, that means I sold them out for just under $2k a head.

Oh so the price matters now? So what price WOULD you do it for? Maybe 2k per head means more to Cam than it does to you.

Well, if it meant my school being put on probation and me losing my eligibility in the middle of a championship season, .... probably not.

If it meant I could detract attention from the cheaters at Ohio State while everybody concentrated on me... definitely not

If it meant that two basketball players at a Big 12 team got suspended for using their Macy's 'Wow' card at the Manhattan Town Center just so the NCAA could say 'Hey, see, we take infractions seriously' and hoping everybody forgets the fact I'm the moron that actually broke rules, but I'm the NCAA's bread and butter...

ah what the hell, yeah. I do it.

I just used the figure that was stated in the hypothetical situation.

I'm sure it does. That is where the lack of character comes to play.

So you stole other people's laptops and got cheated three times and got paid $150K for it?
