When it looked like Dawson was not going to MSU, guys from your MSU board got on this board talking about how dirty the Dawson recruiting had become. We had no clue until accused by the MSU guys. There was a lot of talk about payments to handlers under the table and such. I don't recall all of the issues, but all (ALL) of the talk about how dirty the recruiting of Dawson had become came directly from you MSU guys.
Actually, the first stories about Dawson's recruiting being crooked came from Peegs (possibly Jim Reamer, but don't quote me on that part). The GBI guys wouldn't say anything other than "no comment." My most reliable info came to me directly from a prominent HS Athletic Director in NW Indiana whom I happen to know quite well through my role in HS football. I'm not going to reveal his name, but he told me in no uncertain terms that it was a very shady situation.
Painter is the one who turned him in. By rule, if a coach has knowledge of any cheating, whether it happens at his school or another, he's obligated to turn it in. Painter knew about it, so he turned it in.
Hey Roke - IZZO WAS SUSPENDED BY THE NCAA FOR RECRUITING VIOLATIONS, Do you need more proof than that? Before all you M$Uites get your panties in a bunch over the reasons...face the facts. THE NCAA SUSPENDED HIM. Clearly he had been doing enough things wrong that this was warranted,
And even more irony.....you know how the media pundits LOVED to say every four year player at m$u goes to the final 4? Well guess what? Streak ended with Appling and Payne - purported rapists. And MSUites, you are correct they were not prosecuted and thus committed no crime. However, unlike you I can read their deposition (reading isnt that hard) and see their direct quotes. It is not pretty. And me thinks the streak of 4year NON-final-four players will be extended with Dawson. Lol. By the way, how does he like playing the four-power forward this year? Gee, playing wing is fun and that is why I go to msu. Another Izzo lie-fraud exposed
roke - not taking potshots at you. A true boiler and kudos to you! i bet your son has some good stories re purdue hoops. would like to hear some if you care to share
That is exactly how it happened. MSU fans said Izzo was backing off due to "handlers" and "package deals". Then came to this board and bitched non-stop about Purdue making dirty accusations.Originally posted by mathboy:

Once Dawson committed to MSU, the whole "story" amazingly cleared up and now Dawson is the poster boy for not cheating. Funny how we now look at MSU being full of hypocrates, eh?
