Breaking NCAA coming for us

I swear I remember players tweeting or having videos of them working out at a practice field of a Lincoln high school. I think Dean even confirmed it at one point?
 
I really do not think it's Rutledge but more likely a former player. If he is already having trouble getting a job, this sure as hell wouldn't help.

Unless someone like Gerrod was pushing him to do this and then he became the fall guy...I guess that would make sense that he wants to show that it wasn't him that was pushed into this situation.

It all depends on one thing to me who I think this is. If the NCAA has practice footage, it’s Rutledge. If they don’t and just have someone’s word that “Oh Nebraska has footage proving what I say,” it’s a disgruntled transfer who’s brother enjoys posting on Twitter.

It would be very interesting to see the legalities on a former employee keeping property of the university after he was let go and then using it as evidence against us.
 
He broke a rule and people think it’s ok. It’s like what my Dad used to tell idiot parents in school when they asked why their idiot kid was being punished. “Because that’s the rule.”

I might have insinuated it's O.K., but I also realize there's a reason for rules. We don't live in a black and white society of rules.....or shouldn't. There's a bigger picture.

As a University, would I rather get caught having extra practices with an analyst or coach, or raping underage children, or adults? No question I think getting caught having extra practices is almost laughable in comparison.

"IF" this is true, there should be consequences. But if other schools are going to do the shit they do and not get minimally punished, this is a "nothing to see here" moment. Can anyone with a straight face take the NCAA serious any longer?

It's like when we wanted to play football - we were the villain. C'mon man.

We MIGHT have gotten caught speeding here. They don’t send speeders to prison or give them the chair.
 
a guy on 247 who seems to have some insider sources says that Rutledge is going after us because he can't get a job now and Nebraska has known about this investigation for a while
Rutledge, or RATledge, should go check the game tape and see why he can't get a job, try a different career pal.

I'm not positive but I think those workouts were allowed IF they were organized by players, not coaches. This is alleging that the coaches were involved more than they were allowed to be.
 
I can't see it either, but that's just an opinion. They seemed to have reasonable relationships with others on the team, but nothing surprises me nowadays.

The Mccaffrey one is the only one that makes a little sense given the friction between us and them. The thing is I’m doubting that Ed wants someone to air another programs’ dirty laundry here because I’m doubting he wants anyone to air his at his new job.
