Hubris Is An Amazing Emotion: Just Ask FSU's Football Team- Now It's Autographs...??? But, You Knew That Already...

((HT: Warchant.com/ESPN.com, Rovell))

Just ask Jimbo Fisher- especially when he slaps the media in his weekly press conference


Half-truths and "the facts are the facts..."
"Taint them toward their side..."

"There is no victim because there was no crime."

It's all our fault...
And it will continue to be...

Of course...

But, also, Florida State is now investigating the possibility that JSA (James Spence Authentication) may have Winston's John Hancock on memorabilia just they do with UGA's Todd Gurley. Gurley's JSA case is currently under investigation and Winston may not be far behind.

But you already knew that...

Saturday morning, here at OSG Sports, we told you about:

1) The RacingToARedLight.com search chasing Winston down the JSA rabbit hole and,
2) Brother Phil's subsequent search seeing that Winston's autograph was attached to documents in the same queue as Gurley (pictured at right)

From the Rovell story... here's the numbers...

JSA authenticates items as it receives them and attaches the serial numbers in sequential order. JSA authenticated 76 of the exact same Florida State logo footballs in order with serial numbers J65886 through J65962 and 70 of the exact same signed mini helmets in order with serial numbers J66829 through J66896. The company also authenticated 53 jerseys in a row (J66947 through J67001), 38 11-by-14 photos (J66026 through J66064), 18 of the exact same footballs (J66919 through J66936) and 11 signed Rawlings baseballs (J66898 through J66911).

According to ESPN, Fisher asked Winston if he signed autographs for money at the Syracuse game this past weekend. Winston told Fisher that he did not, but the HQ can see right through the semantics of that answer.

Darren Rovell discusses...


Good to see everyone catching up in all of this...

Lost Letterman did make an excellent point this afternoon...

Jameis Winston could be the Al Capone of the NCAA if this pace keeps up...

Alabama Strength Coach Placed On Administrative Leave For Clinton-Dix Loan

((HT: Tuscaloosa News/Suttles))

University of Alabama assistant strength and conditioning coach Corey Harris has been placed on administrative leave for providing impermissible benefits to suspended football safety Ha Ha Clinton-Dix.

Basically, it was a loan of less than $500, and Clinton-Dix has since paid the loan back...

Now, we know why this was what Coach Nick Saban told the media yesterday...


The university compliance office also discovered that Harris had a connection to a representative of a sports agent. The subsequent investigation determined that Clinton-Dix has not had any contact with anyone that Harris may know fitting that description.

The act by Harris may be a violation of NCAA Bylaw 16.11.2.2, which states that “an institutional employee or representative of the institution's athletics interests may not provide a student-athlete with extra benefits or services, including, but not limited to ... a loan of money.”
