Dabo's the last real man in college football. This is a brilliant timeline he gives. Only question: does the NCAA actually have penalties established for tampering?

Good for him! I wish it were Lane Kiffen instead.

We're going to learn right now if the NCAA has any teeth left or if they should just shut down completely. Dabo laid all the facts out there publicly. No subtlety. No implication. Straight facts. And said he's sent it all directly to the NCAA.

How the NCAA responds to this has a lot to do with the future of the game.

We already know they're impotent. That said, Dabo has put them in a pickle and has receipts to back it up.

The telling comments were from the AD. He said tge NCAA rep stated that they were pleasantly surprised that someone finally complained and had proof. Ole Miss m8ght be made an example. Im a Tiger fan and Dabo gets on my nerves A LOT! But if it takes his willingness to make this his hill, then im cheering him on. Im hopeful that if Ole Miss gets hit, that otber coaches will feel empowered enough to bring proof. As smaller schools, if rules aren't put in place we will never be major contenders again. So the rivalry aside, pull for this to work!!

I wonder if Beamer will publicly side with Dabo. I’m not sure it’s needed but the more coaches speak up, the greater the chance change will ensue.

I doubt it. Look, I hate the current system, but there are better ways to attempt to effect change. I’m actually on Dabo’s side with this one. Unfortunately, I think the way he’s gone about things is going to ostracize him/his program. I don’t think any football players in the market for a new team are watching that press conference and saying, “Yes. That. That’s what I want out of a football program.” Mark my words, coaches will use this against him.

It’s a terribly sad state of affairs that some are blasting Dabo for pointing out cheating and not just getting with the program and doing it too.

society is cooked.

I’ve not seen any better attempts yet but Dabo might just have opened the door for change to take place.

And how else was he to go about it? Quietly turn evidence over to the NCAA so they could sit on their hands and do nothing?

By holding a press conference, he’s put Golding/Ole Miss on notice AND put the NCAA in the spotlight. If the NCAA does nothing, it seals their fate as a toothless entity.

Let's hear the better way? If it's a behind the scene attempt, it simply wouldn't work. Unfortunately, this is the only way.

We can all say what we want to about Dabo, call him a cheerleader and whatever, but he is the first coach i have seen that has the brass balls to do this. Good for him and hopefully good for college football.
