First, I read this board daily and enjoy the comments, etc. Never posted before, but saw this in the Clarion rag 12/30/2015 and was waiting for someone to mention it. It was an article about om's rise from a 2 win season to a trip to the sugar bowl in 5 years. In the article, C.J. Johnson and Chief Brown talked about how bad things were at that time. Brown stated " We had players not wanting to go to practice, not wanting to come work out at all. Everybody was focused on going to the NFL. I remember walking through the locker room and one player said ' I don't know about y'all but I'm here to get this money.' It was a pretty rough time."
I read it several times that day to make sure I was seeing it correctly. I apologize if this has already been discussed but I haven't seen it anywhere on any board. Unbelievable that their players can be quoted admitting about money and still no consequences. Come on, NCAA - what's the hold-up?
