He was already recruited ...  : like i have stated already, the point of this thread wasnt to "bash USF", it was to show that leavitt has recruited problem players in the past, why should we be hypocritical in if/how/why leavitt would recruit bomar to transfer to USF? Who has he recruited that has experienced NCAA violations at another school? BTW, i really dont see why you moved this thread.  it relates to USF football more than the Tampa Bay general sports forum. Because Bomar is not related to USF...only your rantings about USF are and those are frankly off-topic to Bomar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe Posted August 3, 2006 Group: Member Topic Count: 197 Content Count: 10,251 Reputation: 270 Days Won: 14 Joined: 08/16/2005 Share Posted August 3, 2006 I think it was more of the booster willing to pay him the 40 hour work week than the kid writing that he worked 40 hours...And so the pains of being a big time college football coach are magnified.Rhett Bomar was the starting QB on a projected top 10 OU team, he get's caught because he turned in tax forms saying he made 18,000 last year when he was only working 5 hours a week at the dealership...This is similar to the Mo Clarett/Troy Smith/ other teamates at Ohio State who were helping in stadium expansion...they worked 4-5 hours and were paid for 40. When you start getting big time and having boosters with several hands in the program you run the risk of something like this. Most kids do it without the school EVER knowing, the school will just know it's a summer job and will see it on a form that is turned in to the office. Sometimes they'll notice it's a company owned or ran by a prominent booster, sometimes they won't.The thing you have to ask yourself is how big was this booster? He owned a used car dealership and probably did well for himself...but he also probably wasn't meeting with the Athletic Director a couple times a year. It'll be interesting to see how this plays out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anything he'll go Juco. We don't need this kid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
