From Bama with love...... http://blog.al.com/tuscaloosa/2013/09/alabama_sorority_alumni_advise.html University of Alabama Panhellenic sorority advisers and alumnae pulled the plug on at least two black students rushing during August’s recruitment week, UA’s The Crimson White reports, against the wishes of many current sorority members. quote: “It was just so cool to see everyone willing to take this next step and be the sorority that took a black girl and not care,” Gotz told the CW. “You know, I would say there were probably five people in the room that disagreed with everything that was being said. The entire house wanted this girl to be in Alpha Gam. We were just powerless over the alums.” quote: A member of the Delta Delta Delta sorority, who asked to remain anonymous, told the CW her chapter’s alumnae interfered with normal voting procedures for the same girl Alpha Gamma dropped. quote: An anonymous member of Chi Omega also told the CW the potential recruit received also perfect scores after the first round of recruitment, but cites its rush adviser, University employee Emily Jamison, being responsible for dropping her.
While I would absolutely love to see Bama taken down a few pegs, no way would I want to claim that BSCNC. We got our asses handed to us in the game.
There's really quite a story here when you put two decades together. That fear you mention—it's certainly real with some. The thing I find interesting is that fear comes from the very thing you mention no one trusts; the NCAA being consistent, fair, or thorough. If you take some of the things Rich Johanningmeir did with the Miami investigation and look through history you'll find they were not new. They had pulled similar stunts in the past. Except, back then they got away—so to speak—with their own brand of impunity.
Athlon Sports: The highlight of DuBose’s tenure was a 10-3 record in 1999 but that year also brought plenty of controversy. Alabama booster Logan Young paid Means’ high school coach to have the top recruit join the Crimson Tide, which brought on an extensive hit from the NCAA. Alabama was banned for two years from postseason play and were forced to reduce 21 scholarships. This incident wasn’t the only one in recent years for the Crimson Tide, as the program was forced to vacate 21 wins from 2005-07 as a result of a textbook scandal.
