no John, that's not it all... I'm neither a Bama fan, or hater... I'm just not a fan of cheaters. I happen to be a Longhorn fan, and some of Texas's greatest games involved Alabama. They've played each other 8 times, and Texas has won 7 times, with one tie. Bear Bryant ran a clean, upright program, so I respect that history. But unfortunately, the actions of a few can bring disrespect to an entire program. I feel that the violations warrant the same punishment that SMU received, but Alabama is too important to the NCAA to do that. Too many dollars would be lost.

The first person that says, "It happens at every school, we just got caught" is kidding themselves. And I agree, there should be some repercussions for the boosters/high school coaches involved. I'm sure their will be.
