[QUOTE="Ramblin Wrecker, post: 324646, member: 449"] Some version of it happens at Tech (or at least did when I was there), but my experience is that it isn't nearly as prevalent or outlandish as what goes down with some of our peers. I would attribute at least some of that to the types of guys we bring tend to attract. I won't go into details about my experiences with our student-athletes, but my best friend was a d-lineman for VT. He was selected to one of the "all-star" bowl games and said that they would sit around after practice and talk (brag) about the benefits they received at their schools. Some schools did the old school cash in envelopes from "old white men" at banquets and such. It seemed like at a lot of the schools all of the players knew who to call if you needed a little walking around money. At one school, they had a book where the players could write their name and a dollar amount and usually receive the funds the next morning. Granted, this is all second and third degree hearsay, so make of it what you will. [/QUOTE]
