To college football season is set to kick off tomorrow night added.
Quite a bit of scandal though the NCAA is now investigated twenty teams for rules violations over the past year.
Including George attack.
And is in the process of handing out how -- the University of Miami Kristen you know what stock radio host the 790 the -- in Atlanta joins me right now hi Chris you and I have been that we used to work together covering college football we recovery -- for a long time.
Is this the worst you've ever seen it in terms of the penalties in the -- the abuses.
Yeah you know it's amazing Chris you you hope and pray you're good enough to get to BCS bowl game then you spend the next five years hoping and praying that actually happens.
-- not stricken from the record books that don't start the tea that's -- you gotta throw those wins away and then that money that you got net for our pride in you know procedure got.
Throw away because you guys cheated listen break the rules happens it seems every place blatant cheating.
Seems to be at an all time high.
And now people are trying to equate money power but I've always thought it should be like a trial its money power hypocrisy.
And there's enough of that to go around from the university's on down to the boosters all the way to while Washington DC on policy when they're gonna get involved in the.
Well you know elements in the Washington DC bit because if you remember you I've thought about this and Roger Clemens went to trial a couple months ago there was a poll on my mind is CBS poll not sure.
They asked people live the way they are upset the Roger Clemens took steroids or not -- every -- -- took steroids automatic congress is getting involved in this whole thing will we see that sort of backlash from people again.
No because it's all about old -- -- state pride so you have a lot of the listen here's what amuses me.
I like the fact the politicians are talking about let's have an equal playing field I'm as good as you -- school deserves the same shot.
Well let's be honest politicians they live in a world that there's no level playing field -- a lot of times you get elected or reelected based on how much money from raising its I haven't have not world.
You never really find the big state schools really go on after the PCS running you go Popper seize upon -- policy.
Perhaps law breaking it goes on because they're -- and -- supposed to sit in the seat of the seat of power it's always a lesser little states that wanna go out they wanna fight the windmill.
But even those guys if there really examined how they got their seats in congress to the senate they find that a lot of it was based upon the things that -- rail against when it comes to money and who has and who does.
-- Orrin hatch is very vocal about you but I'm not getting a big piece -- -- DC -- by a couple years ago all right the end game for college football so much about moving from conference the conference and super conferences.
Are we gonna have a list -- group of haves and have -- and I put a list together.
A look at Fox Business personalities of the -- Ads and have nots -- is the USC -- Clearly had as as long as they don't violate every single rule in the book Sandra Smith LSU same deal should body is -- boomer sooner from Oklahoma so those it has to have nots.
-- McDowell with the Wake Forest I went to Georgia Tech -- you look.
Are -- Rutgers guy.
Are we gonna be left -- of this whole thing.
-- and if I'm gonna be really honest I wish we treated better over the years and actually -- more players now last.
He you know what's really funny because it's billions of dollars everybody knows that well what's amazing is eighty plus schools out of the once -- -- play division one big -- football.
Lose money I want the first politician to step up to say all you should drop athletics because it's really not good for the state budget -- -- suicide so won't happen.
Here's what's eventually gonna happen the B 56 to 64 teams that play in that big boy world.
If it doesn't come down some of the bigger that a minor release of the end of Felton chase the dollars and you'll find some of the -- and -- -- when I know that we've seen guys who donate five dollars.
And wanna call themselves Johnny booster those are the guys who can help themselves this off -- in the gums at the barbershop or that field corner tavern.
And I see you know what it -- double -- comes.
And Yahoo! by the way now -- big part of this.
I I claim that if Yahoo! announce a new north like Mike Wallace in the old days of sixty minutes don't may have to put the gone fishing sign up and just real -- -- you're nodding for good run.
From a couple -- -- -- couple of years -- does the mud should be study Christina from seven and is a good -- in a man.
Thanks Chris -- talking the one you have finally final score -- matter a little bit more than the other stuff -- you right than the the police blonde.
