Thread: Johnny Football Rumors

And no autograph broker in his right mind is going to provide evidence to the NCAA... because then nobody would sign for them anymore. There are plenty of college football players who are likely taking money for autographs. Just look at all the autographed shit on eBay... There's just as much Jadeveon Clowney stuff for sale on eBay as there is JFF.

Even if they do find evidence, I heard that they cannot take away wins after this, since a ruling has come down? I think I read that in an article (as in not an online comment), but that of course doesn't mean it is true. Really that is all I care about as I don't want to have any wins taken away!

I really think they should implements a one autograph per person rule, though hard to enforce it at least gives a player an out when bugged if they want. "Sorry, only one thing per person." Then if there is evidence of signing multiple things for someone (video...), you know something is up, and if a player sees someone with a ton of things from them they can say "hey, these are fakes" (if they follow the rules).

I am sure that would be your response were it not the Aggie QB? It is not hating to hope that college football wouldn't be shit. As for Clowney, Miller, or any of the other "stars" I would love to see them all punished. There is no logical reason in the world that a college kid, or anyone for that matter, would spend hours signing thousands of items without getting compensated in some way for it. If you can name even one reason I might willingly accept the hater tag. Until then you are just drinking the kool-aid.

If there was proof, then ya, rule him ineligible... but there wasn't/isn't. Maybe he signed all of those autographs for a charity/event? Who knows. Maybe he was compensated, but hey, they can't prove it.

Plus, that maroon kool-aid is tasty and full of win. How's that orange kool-aid tasting? bitter and flat?

Love you Civilpoo!

Ask Johnny Fucking Numbskull. He seems to still be hooked on the orange kool-aid.

Bwahahaha, I always go to hotels and deal with known autograph brokers when I want to do things for charity. I am totally sure that is what it was. How did I ever doubt?

Well, to be fair, they were out of town at an event (BCS bowl game among other events) - it's possible.

But Civil, players do this out of the kindness of their heart, not for money. Just like Cam went to Auburn because he loved the program/school and not because they paid his dad, oh and if they did he wouldn't know about it anyways.


Reggie Bush/his family must of be massive idiots to get caught the way the NCAA is. Actually, re-read how it went down, Reggie and his family were a bunch of massive idiots. Granted it took the NCAA 5 years to figure it out, even after the family was sued for said gifts and the guy suing agreed to work with them.

Maybe I was wrong, it isn't because Johnny Football is a big star, its because the NCAA is ran by idiots.

Some people just want to hate and some are just burnt orange.
