As summer ends, heat is on in Toledo point-shaving case
ESPN ^ | August 29, 2007 | Mike Fish and George J. Tanber

A third of the way into the article, the authors discuss a college player breeding pit bulls for dog fighting.


TOPICS: Crime/Corruption; News/Current Events
KEYWORDS:
Levity aside about discussing making Maryland football stronger by going after VaTech, this begins to peal back the skin of the onion about college athlete dog-fighting rings.

Was I an obsessed whack job for asking the question if Vick was involved with dog-fighting at VaTech? Probably so. :>) but I'm sure you'll see more of the same coming out.

I myself was appalled at the illegal recruiting activity in Disney’s; High School Musical 2.

Ok, I understand what point shaving is, I think, and I understand what dog fighting is, I think.

I just want to know how the coach knew to get out of town early.

Even more troubling for Toledo are the institutional control questions: Did Toledo athletic officials know of any wrongdoing? If they didn’t, should they have known?

And the Pats are caught and “convicted” cheating.

Just more fuel on the fire to look into shaving points.

Who told the Falcon’s coach to go to Oregon ahead of the QB’s indictment?
