Illinois Self Reporting NCAA Violation

[OrangeBowl]

File this under how the NCAA wastes too much time on bull****

Illinois will report a secondary violation to the NCAA and the Big Ten after its coach, Tim Beckman, was caught Saturday afternoon by ESPN cameras using smokeless tobacco on the sidelines during the Illini's game against Wisconsin.

Not that I'm against tobacco being prohibited,but this is silly.I remember Sonny Lubick and Mack Brown having a pinch between the cheek and gum at times.

Damn. Good think the cameras didn't catch him giving a sandwich to a walkon or the Illini would be looking at the Death Penalty.

 

[sackman]

Imagine what the penalties must be for picking your nose on camera.

Those sly debils. I bet they would have stayed mum if not for the cameras.

Am I the only one that thinks coaches should chew?

Well, certainly before swallowing.

Not really recommended. That happened my first and last chew about 40 years ago...

Chew or chaw?

legislating morality is not what the NCAA should be worrying about.

 

[Dark Bohner]

Allow myself to report...myself.

Gene Chizik and Chip Kelly respectfully disagree with that statement.

One of my buddies in HS who used to dip decided to use my Coke as a spit cup one night. I tossed my cookies when I took a big swig of it. Makes me want to hurl all over again just thinking about that.

I remember when my buddy's little sister thought his Fast food cup with straw was still just soda sucked up his chew spit. I couldn't stop laughing/almost hurling.
