Here's an excellent article from Denver that discusses the the recruitment of A-As to play sports @ Colorado U. It seems that out of the student population of 28,000, there's just 418 A-As. A large % of these 418 are scholarship athletes. When CU brings them in on recruiting visits there's not many activities for them to engage in. The current players are encouraged to provide private 'parties' with large amounts of alcohol availiable & co-eds to provide sex for the recruits.
How the heck do they get the co-eds for these functions? Money? Anyway, here tis:

Colorad U recruiting article
 
Didn't this begin under McCartney? If I remember correctly, his daughter was knocked up by a player. Evidentally they were short on co-eds that weekend and he didn't want to lose any potential players.

Just in case any of you have forgotten what kind of scumbag McCartney is. When Ross was being presented the upi MNC trophy at the national banquet, McCartney chose that time to head to the bathroom.

I wonder how much of that story is reporter bs, how much is reporter hostility to CU, and how much is true?

Actually, McCartney's daughter got knocked up twice by 2 different players. QB Sal Aunese who died of stomach cancer (GRHS) and DL Shannon Clavelle.

If those people are the kind of coaches people are yelling for here at Tech then I don't want any part of them or their way of recruiting players.

Well Belly if it were not for the moving, unpacking etc. everything is fine but here is Suzan to tell you herself. Hi, Belly. This is the new wife (Suzan) I almost have him broke in. I thought I had killed him the other day but he bounced back. Even got him and BeeWare to agree on something. Wonders never cease.

Try to keep him straight if you can and try to remind him that it is not a threat to him if you or I have a different opinion than he does.

BW you and I don't really have that many differences it's just that I get tired of the constance postings on the same subject. It seems to me as well as others on the board that you have only one subject to harp on.
