just read an on-line Utah newspaper article that the defensive line coach for Ohio State attended church yesterday with a recruit OSU is pursuing in the Salt Lake area. Didn't say which denomination. Never heard of this before but guess it's ethical.

"With a recruit" or the same service as the recruit? Transporting the PSA is not allowed. So they would have had to meet at the church and "coincidently" arrive at the same time and "coincidently" sit next to each other.

One of our coaches once tatooed a recruits name on his body. This seems pretty tame in comparison. At least if this guy turns em down he won't have a reminder staring at him in the mirror forever.

Was just a marker, not a real tat but still...

You might be on to something, maybe thats what the SEC does. This bag of cash coincidently ended up in his car.

Between this and Harbaugh's sleepover, I think this is much more appropriate.

No, but I have heard stories of an Auburn QB whose minister father obtained "donations" from SEC schools to support a church building needing repairs.

I have heard of the tattoo tactic being used when somebody wife catches somebody doing something they shouldn't have done.

Yes, Larry Johnson used to coach at Penn State and he did go to church often. He is the father of former PSU running back and Kansas City Chief Larry Johnson Jr. Urban hired him SR after James Franklin became head coach at PSU. He is a heck of a DL coach and recruiter.
