If you are following the OK-State football story; my family name is about to be pulled through the mud. I just heard and
if they name the person I understand. I have never meet him and he his a third cousin I have never had the chance to meet. The story has been glorified for effect but some of the stuff I am hearing is situations that were being joked about years ago. I hope that you all give me, Damen Bowling, the benefit of the doubt before judging my family. I welcome any questions but please remember that much of this story I am hearing just before it breaks in the media.

We can never blame the players. The NCAA has these crazy rules. The players are unpaid. Why not take what you can? Sep 13, 06:31
The players are paid with a full scholarship with room and board. {nm} Sep 13, 10:23
And compared to what they bring in to their respective universities, they are working cheap. Sep 13, 10:43
At $50,000 a year for non-resident, that's $200,000 value for 4 years. A great deal for the 99% that won't play pro-ball. {nm} Sep 13, 11:30
But that is their own fault for not taking advantage of the opportunities GIVEN to them. {nm} Sep 13, 12:30
Hard to take advantage of a college education when you can't read above a sixth grade level. {nm} Sep 13, 13:06
versus the tens of millions that a top Div I school earns off their football program every year? peanuts {nm} Sep 14, 10:43
yes, I read the whole SI article... wow Damen. and no worries here, has nothing to do with you. Sep 13, 08:43
The devil is in the details Sep 13, 10:02
I haven't followed this story but based on comments made here, my thoughts are inside Sep 13, 10:24
Allowing Olympic athletes to pocket some cash hasn't destroyed the integrity of the competition. Sep 13, 10:27
I know that college ball effectively is a NFL minor league - that's what I think the problem is. Sep 13, 11:09
I don't believe Olympic athletes that are still in school/scholarship can take cash either. {nm} Sep 13, 11:34
Give the players a stipend and a lot of this crap would go away. Sep 13, 10:12
With the Cowboys this was bound to happen Sooner or later. {nm} Sep 13, 13:46
We will handle the Sooners, later! {nm} Sep 13, 15:08
