"Nkemdiche set off fire alarms across Mississippi when he tweeted "Messed up what [Ole Miss] did to Mario Mathis." Quick summary: Mario's father told the AJC that the scholarship was revoked by Ole Miss because "they didn't like progress of his recovery from knee surgery" after his workout at last Friday's summer camp. His father was obviously disappointed, as any parent would be, and his comments about Ole Miss were quite respectful if actually you read them."

"BEST PACKAGE DEAL EVER? Everybody knows how Nkemdiche would love to play with a couple of his best friends at Clemson, but he's got nothing on ESPN's No. 1-ranked signee from 2012. DE Mario Edwards of Denton, Texas, signed with Florida State last February, and his father was quietly hired by FSU earlier this month. It's a gray area with the NCAA and you can read more about it here. By the way, we don't have any problems with "package deals." We think every player should ask for the moon with all the profits the colleges make on the game."
Isn't it time to take care of the "gray area" of hiring people (parents, girlfriends, etc.) as a way of paying off a recruit? Is anyone checking if the salary is abnormal? Could it be a no-show job? (Probably not in this case but it seems this could be an area for a lot of abuse).
