MIAMI HERALD: [size=+2]Eight Miami Hurricanes football players declared ineligible[/size]
Quarterback Jacory Harris and star linebacker Sean Spence are two of the ineligible athletes, the source said…
Harris, 21, and Spence, 21, are both seniors and both graduated from Miami Northwestern High, where Spence’s father Sam is a physical education teacher. Spence’s mother Crystal is the principal of Hialeah Gardens Middle School. When reached by phone, Crystal Spence said she had not heard the news.
“If that’s the case we don’t agree with it,’’ she said. “They shouldn’t penalize the students who are young and impressionable. What about the adults? From my understanding the president of the school and others have taken financial contributions [from Shapiro] and were allowed to return the funds. They didn’t lose their jobs or get suspended from work for a week or two weeks.
“Some students do make mistakes and I believe when you knowingly do wrong you should suffer the consequences. But I just don’t think the kids should take the fall for everything that has gone on when it’s at a higher level. If a person is hanging around the campus, if he’s allowed to run out of the Orange Bowl tunnel and if he has free access to the school, how are you supposed to know that this is a person you should not be associated with?”
Yahoo! Sports first reported that Shapiro, now in prison for running a $930 million Ponzi scheme, allegedly provided thousands of impermissible benefits to at least 72 athletes from 2002 through 2010...
“I know he never took money,’’ Crystal Spence said. “And he told me he never went to a strip club with him.”
Crystal Spence is right on. President Shalala isn’t ready to take any responsibility or punishment. It wasn’t her responsibility she says even though she opened her door to the criminal. She’s apparently never heard of the old “the buck stops here” approach to leadership. She’ll keep collecting her million dollar salary (Wikipedia: UM's President, currently Donna Shalala, is the university's chief executive officer with a salary of $783,420 -$1.2 million in total 2008 compensation). Let’s see the NCAA suspend her!
And the two Athletic Directors who were involved certainly aren’t stepping up to the plate. One, Paul Dee, is living in luxury in retirement. It wasn’t his fault he proclaims to all and sundry.
And the other one, Kirby Hocutt, he bailed out when he knew what was coming down the pipe by taking a high paying job at Texas Tech. And he just happened to forget to mention to his successor or the football coach he hired before leaving what was coming. Prick! Let’s see the NCAA suspend him!
And Coach Coker who was there when this ponzi scheme Shapiro clown was prancing up and down his sideline for four or five years now claims he never knew him or heard the guys name. What bullshit! Let’s see the NCAA suspend him!
And the basketball coach, Frank Haith, who went to strip clubs with the guy? Well he bailed out for a big money job at Missouri (Haith's five-year contract at Missouri pays a base salary of $1.5 million per season). Why should he have to pay for not following the rules? Let’s see the NCAA suspend him!
No it’ll be the kids who will end up paying while everyone else cashes their million dollar salaries. Black kids from the inner city, kids who don’t earn a dime while their play generated the money that pays all the bigwigs. Its the same old story...
