Pryor’s acts expose charade of college athletics
"When he isn’t violating some NCAA rule, he’s shining a light on the absurdity of how the sport’s power players managed to rewrite said rule so its cash flow could continue unabated.

ESPN gameday bad for Alabama?
"5 Losses for Alabama in the five games for which "ESPN College GameDay" has been broadcast from Tuscaloosa. Alabama has a 9-8 record when "GameDay" is on site, but in Tuscaloosa the Crimson Tide is 0-5, losing to Georgia in 2007, LSU in 2005, Oklahoma in 2003, Georgia in 2002 and UCLA in 2001. "GameDay" is scheduled to be in Tuscaloosa this weekend for the Tide's game against Penn State. In two of the games -- in 2007 and 2005 -- Alabama was the higher-ranked team. In 2003 and 2002, an unranked Alabama team lost to a ranked opponent. And in 2001, UCLA was No. 17 and Alabama No. 25."
