Againk, quite the contrary. I remember very clearly today that ESPN is touting Carroll as the top coach in football because of his recruiting and record. I remember quite clearly that they were dragging Jim Tressel and Andy Geiger through the mud and calling them all manner of names despite the fact that they KNEW the allegations were untrue.
There has not been an open investigation of USC. When a tape is to be admitted into court such as the one that is, then there cannot have been a proper investigation into the allegations against Bush.
It is rotten, methomps, just rotten and I have lost all respect for USC.
