Re: Mayo denies claims he took gifts at USC | |
TF was between a rock and a hard place. The school can't get punished for this because they really didn't break any rules. The Kid did. Mayo has then put his teammates in a tough spot because of his actions. If the team gets sanctioned because he took money from an agent, not the school, as a teammate I would be upset.
As the coach there is only so much you can do. If some guy drops $200 in a friend of a players bank accout and then that money gets to your player, how do you track that? You can ask the kid about it and be very suspicious but a coach has a lot of things on his plate, the new pair of Air Force One's every week might not catch his attention.
I'm not saying what went down was ok by any stretch but the blame should be put on OJ, his handlers, and the agents.
