especially since she called in voluntarily

“Colt did not himself have as much interaction [with agents], I don’t think. I know he was approached quite a bit, but you know how Colt is, he can just kind of brush it off and just kind of move on and not go down that road, but I saw so many of his teammates who just, they maybe didn’t have some of that self-control just to be able to say no to somebody. I can’t. That’s not my personality, I don’t want to hurt people’s feelings.”

That part doesn’t say anything about improper benefits, only interacting with agents. Colt would just brush them off, while others had less self control and talked to them. That may be a violation (talking to an agent), but it doesn’t seem nearly as bad as improper benefits.

Perhaps people aren’t quoting the damaging stuff about improper benefits?

Texas is very strict on NCAA rules and the most people want to do is buy you dinner because Texas folks are just so friendly but it is a violation and the staff tells the players so.

However, I think she is assuming a lot here and could be read as damning evidence, but she is generally talking about boosters. Although she says a lot of crap about agents approaching Colt and players but she is assuming all of this, there is no fact to her statements.

Colt, why is she saying anything at all – that’s what I don’t get. Although she is hot and married to Colt – if this opens an investigation into Texas athletics there will be hell to pay and I for one will not let hearsay and conjecture bring down our athletic department.

Not too happy at the moment. Shame shame on you Rachael.

This has to be a joke, like from Howard stern. Why did she voluntarily call in?

saying this kind of thing right now of all times can make people see something even if there is nothing. they can look at what she says here and even if it doesnt say a damn thing their are people in the NCAA who will see this as a chance to jump on Texas and investigate Texas that kind of thing can make recruits change their minds even if they investigate and find nothing. and losing recruits can equal the beginning of the end for a program or the beginning of a LONG dark time in the program’s history.

look out folks this could be the beginning of a witch hunt that may hurt this program for years…..

talking too broadly about people giving cars to athletes and then switching over and talking about Texas, which made is sound really bad but when you break it down only one comment is “damning” but in context even that is just a bad sound bite that implies more than she meant it to.

Did she think she had something to add to an ongoing discussion? Was she bored? There are some conversations that just shouldn’t happen.

Interesting that he was asking for a link to the Rachel audio and followed with this tweet “I have a random question about the extra benefit rule in terms of NCAA stipulations? Anyone know the rules closely?”

She didn’t really say anything bad. In fact, she said that Texas is very strict and the kids are constantly told not to accept anything.

She also had a good point that it isn’t fair to kids that are raised to be respectful to then expect them to suddenly know how to brush off the scum in the business. She made some good points and I don’t feel that she implicated Texas in anything inappropriate.

She didn’t say anything inflammatory and didn’t mention anything that would be a violation. She did not mention anyone by name. This is a non-story.

Don’t worry they are far too busy nailing my Buckeye’s to listen.

Mack is probably on a flight to Cleveland. He’s probably thinking how am I gonna get back at her for ruining my day?

The NCAA would not to anything if she did. I am quite sure that many Texas football players get let into clubs for free, get free drinks, and free meals. They are treated like celebrities in Austin. It is a violation, but that is just the way it is. I really could care less. I am of the opinion that this happens at most schools.

How many years has Auburn been straight up paying players? Nothing has happened to them even though the QBs Dad admits he asked for money for his son.

Does she have a flashing vacancy sign on her forehead?

And we know this is Colt’s wife, how?

She absolutely was describing her abhorrent regard for grown men (ie. boosters) and their feeding off the BMOC tag so they can tell their buddies, cousins, fellow alums, customers, and mothers they are in the club. This is not some new revelation. Groupies have been around since forever.

No, nothing to see here. Time to move along.

Plain and simple.

Marrying the QB doesn’t make her qualified to speak on our compliance. I hate to think of Colt McCoy as a neutered Kurt Warner, but at this point Rachel McCoy is heading down the Brenda Warner path.

OMG IT’S GOING TO KILL TEXAS. Or not, since all Colt McCoy’s wife just said that Texas enforcement was actually quite strict, that boosters were uncontrollable (duh,) and that people like money, including offers of cars that get turned down. But hey, excuse to post pictures of Colt McCoy’s hot wife! She’s third from the right!
