Im a season ticket holder, A scholarship donor, and a fan.
That university gets alot of mine and my family money..
Well I havent heard ANY Bama fan say "NO" We dont pay players" All im hearing is "EVERBODY DOES IT" which leads me to believe you KNOW THAT BABA CHEATS!!
Only in the SEC! Today Jeffrey Lee of went on a Mobile radio station and aired out all of Alabama’s dirty laundry…accusing a booster of buying 5-star recruit Brent Calloway. Amoung the allegations made was that the booster: made cash payments to his dad, paid the family’s mortgage, bought him a car, and promised of $1,200 a month.

Its not you fans on this thread its boosters everywhere because:
Boosters do stupid things, often just to fuel their own egos. Maybe they're trying to make a player feel beholden to them, to be leveraged down the road when he hits The Big Time. Maybe they want to brag to their rich buddies. Maybe they're just misguided, thinking they're being a help to their school.
Where do Boosters pay the most and are LOCKED IN A RECRUITING BATTLE ?????????
THE SEC!!

I REALLY DONT THINK ALABAMA BOOSTERS STOPPED THEIR ACTIONS, OR ARE BEING LOOKED AT!!!
in 2002 the University of Alabama was given a two-year postseason ban, the loss of 21 scholarships and vacated wins because booster paid players. People directly associated with the football program paid players.

Here is Miller’s list of Alabama’s infractions:
-A recruit, identified in news reports and Kenny Smith, and his parents were given $20,000 in cash, lodging, and entertainment by two Crimson Tide boosters beginning in 1995. The first payment of $10,000 was made in $100 bills delivered in a grocery bag. Smith signed with Alabama but couldn’t been academic requirements.
-An Alabama booster previously identified as Logan Young of Memphis, Tenn., gave cash to a high school coach who was seeking $100,000 cash and two sport-utility vehicles in exchange for directing star recruit Albert Means to Alabama.
-An assistant coach, former recruiting coordinator Ronnie Cottrell, received two loans totaling $56,600 from Young in violation of NCAA rules. The loan was not repaid until the case became known.
-Two boosters involved in repeated rules violations were know to the Alabama staff, coaches and fans and were often seen at the team hotel during road games.
-A recruit, identified previously as Travis Carroll, was given the use of a car in 1999 for agreeing to attend Alabama. The car was repossessed when Carroll transferred to Florida.
Miller then tosses out a great quote: “Let that all swirl in your head for a bit. That’s old-school cheating in its purest form. Reading it almost makes you crave a jar of moonshine.”
He’s right. That’s as bad as it gets. Coaches and players being paid by boosters. People directly involved with the program, who were allowed to stay around when rules were known to have been broken. That’s old-school southern football cheating…or as people in SEC country call it “business as usual.”
So Alabama did that and got basically the same punishment as USC who had players doing things far away from the program. Hell, Bush and his family had all their dealings with Lloyd Lake and Michael Michaels (yes that’s really his name) in San Diego, 100 miles
JUST IN CASE YOU FORGOT...AND I FEEL INCLINED TO POST MORE BECAUSE YOU WANT ME TO POST LESS!

He knew this might be only chance at the big money, and at trial it was testified that Kentucky was asked to pay $6,000 for a simple visit, and that Georgia and Alabama paid as much as $4,000 just for a visit—the the money being secretly paid by boosters.
Lange knew all the big boosters of almost all the big SEC schools. While he knew the schools themselves would have him arrested for daring to shop a player around, he figured to zero in on the big-buck boosters and extort the big money from them for Means' signing.
Enter Logan Young, a man with far too much money and time on his hands who wanted to build a case to make himself the most important man with his beloved Crimson Tide by secretly delivering players like Means to the Tide.
The coach that initiated the whole "pay for play" scheme never served a day for his part. He plead guilty to taking $150,000 from Young, (though sources said the figure was $200,000) and testified against Young in a plea deal to avoid serving any time.
However, the NCAA missed the target as Young died of an accident while appealing his case. He never served one day in jail.
At trial, it was determined the head coach Mike Dubose knew nothing of the pay for play scandal and though the NCAA determined that the school and coaching staff was not guilty of wrong doing, Young's status as a booster was the same as a staff member.
It was not determined beyond doubt what Means himself knew.
So even though the player and Alabama staff did nothing wrong, the school only narrowly avoided the death penalty for a rouge booster's actions. Alabama paid the stiffest of penalties.

No fire there but smoke!!
But there is smoke. A website run by attorney Clay Travis (outkickthecoverage.com) has obtained photos of former player Julio Jones (who had been pictured in the store) wearing 16 -- that's right, 16 -- different suits to Alabama football games (some sharp stuff, I might add). Again, there is currently no proof that a violation has occurred.
