The moral issue is the most important issue. But I am more concerned with the letting of certain schools continue on as they always have. Alabama's MO has always been. Win Nattys at whatever cost. This is a recruiting etiquette thread so lets be honest. Bama,tOSU,USC.... cheat on the recruiting trail all the time, win their National championships, get caught, take their probations, start back up agin, wash , rinse, repeat.

Now the Moral's end of it. Auburn ,Ole Miss,USC,BAMA,Texas(ones I've read about before) have all done the "fixing up of recruits" with questionable "dates" for the weekend  :). We the fanbases, all know its going on. Ask the recruits parents and they ll tell you something like,"We were approached by Texas as to whether their son would be available for socializing and needing a nice sorority gal to go with them. Some parents may be unaware but most are and its a different deal altogether when said recruit goes alone on the visit. I used Texas cause I personally know of a former recruit or recruits who took visits there and this is how they (Texas) approached them on the issue. Lets get away from turning a blind eye to Hookers NCAA and dare we even bring up Penn State.

It is like with most moral issues in America, we love to turn a blind eye, because that is much easier than dealing with it. Is anyone REALLY shocked to find out Freeze was calling up escorts. I mean how many times do we have to hear about a highly paid, supposedly upstanding man doing this before the shock value goes away? Just like all the guys caught when the Ashley Madison thing hit a couple years ago, I was not shocked at all to find out a couple men in my church were on it. Yet, we do nothing about the underlying moral issue, we just act shocked and go on.   
People ask me what I do in winter when there is no baseball.  I will tell you what I do. I stare out the window, and I wait for spring.

I should prolly be in another forum to say this or go down this line but I just have too. Its all in the bible. This stuff is of "the World" and yes our own ego s and not wanting any negativity turned at us or lose any perks ourselves keeps us from speaking up more and dirtying the waters in these types of situations. We know our football team is competing against these teams that cheat all the time yet for a 40 million dollar payday we are glad to be an SEC member.

On a more widespread and personal level. Thousands of people have their kids going to football camps,practicing,going to baseball tournaments,softball tournaments,soccer tournaments,dance comprtitions, cheerleader pracrice or camps instead of having our kids in church on Sunday morning or Wed. nite. Why can't these things go on at different times. Why does the NCAA,SEC look the other way.

Why do we as fans endorse these behaviors by going to the games,donating to the teams financially..... Basically supporting the NCAA,SEC by buying hats,shirts gear.Watching them on TV.I knew it before but after the Cam Newton and Tyrell Pryor incidents I've had nothing for the SEC or NCAA.

I'm sure we're no angels on the recruiting trail.

Probably right, but we are probably more of an angel than olesis...
