MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — What was that nonsense about Miami receiving the death penalty? Given the way this NCAA investigation petered out, we’ve decided Rivals should name Nevin Shapiro recruiter of the year while and that Mark Emmert is the one guilty of lack of institutional control.
But enough with those sour grapes, USC fans. Clearly Miami just had better attorneys, ones who found the NCAA loophole allowing official visits to take place on yachts, where strippers serve as “hostesses” and forgetful agents leave behind backpacks full of 20s.
On to this week’s picks, where the panel should give itself a bowl ban after an atrocious Week 8:
