EDSBS LIVE: SCANDAAAAL! EDITION
Oh, festiva! Celebrate the Feast of Our Lady of Fatima with EDSBS Live tonight as we discuss SCANDAL in college football and at large with our guest, you.
The Four Scandalous Questions for the evening:
Who knew Hester was a Tide fan?
1. What was the worst scandal your school ever had? SMU fans, please feel free to call in.
2. What’s the worst scandal in college football RIGHT NOW? Feel free to slander whomever you like, so long as you are entertaining about it while on the air.
3. What’s the worst scandal you personally have been involved with? We’ll reveal ours on air, so scandalous is it.
4. What’s your favorite scandal? Nick Leeson, Rogue Trader. When you take down a whole bank with a single bet, you’re living to win, man. Leeson now writes books called “Coping With Stress” and plays poker professionally while running an Irish soccer club. Aside from time spent in Singaporean prison and colon cancer…where’s the downside, exactly?
We’ll see you tonight. Listen in with the sidebar or by going here at NowLive.com.

Thank god some Ohio State fan made a Youtube video to clear up the controversy. Being cheated out of a national championship might have been real uncomfortable otherwise.
Im over it; Coker is a piece of shit and we didnt deserve to win, but having OSU fans offer a home made youtube video as some sort of validation chaps my ass.
As for Ed Reed/Roy Williams, that I won’t ever get over. Who cares that Miami had a better team, the award is supposed to go to the best defensive back in the country. Roy Williams is a glorified cover linebacker who has since been exposed, and everyone outside of Oklahoma is aware of this.
The BIGGER injustice, however, was that Sean Taylor lost the award to Derrick Strait two years later. Sean had 10 interceptions, 3 touchdowns, 77 tackles, shut down Larry Fitzgerald and haunts Chris Rix’s nightmares to this day. Derrick Strait had 80 tackles, 3 Interceptions. What a joke that award is.

1. Not the biggest, but most hilarious. Our men’s basketball team was involved in a calling-card scandal in 1991. Several players ran up thousands of dollars in long-distance charges on an asst. coach’s calling card (remember those?). The NCAA investigation was fairly open-and-shut, since the players involved used the illegal card from their OWN phones in their apartments and dorm rooms. Academic all-Americans, they were not.
2. The fact that Ron Franklin isn’t calling the national title game.
3. Mostly standard campus drunken shennanigans.
4. Marshall’s Jobs-for-Mops scandal a few years back, when the ensuing NCAA investigation revealed boosters ghost-payrolling players $25/hour for “janitor” jobs and that Marshall had taken *65* Prop 48s over the previous four years.
