You made a thread to ask a question you already know the answer to?

Well I was just trying to confirm it. Didn't want to be in the dark about these things.

That's well freaking done by that Trojan fan to compile all of that so succinctly. Wow.

I agree.

Especially, to all be on one team. That's a lot of "poor" college players right there. It sure looks like they need a stipend to survive, lol.

Dudes have better cars than most the rich kids on BSU's campus.

Two things:

1. If you are posting pics to allude to something, leave out the guy standing next to his 2004 Chevy Avalanche next time. Made me lol.

2. Lots of Chargers. Perhaps a local Dodge dealer is offering "incentives" to players who "buy" one?

Love the Instagram comments. Literally not English.

I'd like to see this done with Bama players and their cars when they turn 50 years old. I wonder if they upgrade? LOL

As for ND players, I don't know, but I would guess that Fertitta, Cory Robinson, and Torii Hunter have pretty decent rides.

Nick Saban is a silent partner in a bunch of car dealerships. I wonder if he has some "loaner" program set up that is by the books.

Let's get our boys some cars like those!

Are we sure those are their cars? I see young guys take pictures in front of nice cars that aren't theirs all the time on social media.

Captions such as "new ride" or "had to wash him up a couple days ago" or "my baby" or photos where they are sitting on the car, or where the car is clearly in their driveway, suggest that in most cases the cars are not random cars. They may of course still be loaner cars.

I seriously doubt that Saban would let this go on, though. I'm guessing it is all within the letter of the law (and I'm not being sarcastic- why would Saban want to jeopardize all his wins? He wouldn't).

Why would he care about those wins? He's made his money, his legacy is already set as the best coach, possibly ever. What's the worst that can happen to him? Get fired, banned for a few years like Tressel?

It's already been proven you can break the rules and still be successful afterwards. Look at Carrol. You think he cares that USC was put on sanctions and lost scholarships? He's a Super Bowl winning coach now.

I think it's reasonable to say that the pics of Eddie Jackson with the i8 (~$150k) and what looks to be a RR Ghost (~$300k) are not his cars because 1) he's with 3 different cars in a gas station parking lot and 2) even the most brazen booster wouldn't be foolish enough to give a 21 year old from a very poor part of Miami half a millions dollars' worth of cars. Most of the others though seem to imply that they own the cars in the pictures with them.
