Willie Lyles sought payment for Peterson

[Woneone]

Willie Lyles asked Texas A&M for $80K to sign recruit Patrick Peterson - ESPN

Apparently this Lyles guy (of the Oregon investigation fame) told Texas A&M that it would cost $80,000 to get Peterson on campus. And then, as you would suspect, he ends up at an SEC school.

Funny how that tends to happen.

Unrelated, Peterson got a 9 on his Wonderlic, and was one of only 4 players to score in the single digits, 3 of course were from tSEC.

Single digits? Jeebus how do they even get on the short bus without slipping on their own drool.

It's hard to slip when you walk with your hands on the ground.

Wonderlic is overrated.

 

[IrishSteelhead]

Wonderlic is overrated.

As a means to determine success on the football field, not whether or not you are a complete idiot.

You have to admire the SEC for taking all those heroes who turn down all that money so they can play at a great state school and get a great education in addition.

Yeah, because nobody ever got a great education from state schools...
