[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why they need to bribe? Why not just donate like everyone else does?[/quote] Well in the penn situation, it’s a function of price. It costs about 2-4 million in giving if you want your kid in at Penn. But bribing a coach to put a recruit tag on you can be had as low as 75-100k. Coaches in the Ivy League are poorly paid so are ripe targets for bribes. [/quote] Good point. You don't see any SEC football coaches doing this (The money goes the other way).[/quote] This scam could never have worked at serious football school. In the indictment one of the parents even points out that this is not going to work at Notre Dame or any school where people follow recruits intensely.[/quote] Precisely. They went for low-profile sports at schools that don't excel in those sports. Hence, USC crew. [/quote]
