Mullen "helicoptering" in to see Liggins tonight?
- Thread starter MonkeyCheese
- Start date
Although, I'm not sure I'd want to see it, but I'd find it funny if Mullen did the other kind of helicoptering to a pro-Ole Miss crowd.

We don't have a 100k seat stadium and multiple NCs. 17 the NCAA and their definition of recruiting excesses - let little ol' MSU hop from po-dunk MS town to po-dunk MS town in a helicopter. It's obviously not paying significant dividends in the form of 4 and 5 star athletes over the past coupe of seasons.
Everyone uses them every year. I had no idea it was a no no... I mean half of all rivals stories talk about how the coach impressed the kid by showing up in a chopper. oh well
Sounds like that prohibition is predicated on the coach's arriving in a helicopter with the intent of impressing a recruit. What if he had no such intent and only used the helicopter to allow him to visit multiple high school games in a single evening?
Would the NCAA rule on intent? Maybe.... but it damn sure looks like they can't rule on much else these days.
