Excerpts

It was sometime early last season-I don't remember when exactly, but it was back before Jerry Parks shot Zarek Peters in Bud Hall, before my Sooner buddy Charles Thompson sold blow to the FBI agent, before Notre Dame taunted West Virginia in the Fiesta Bowl or Mike Stonebreaker got drunk and drove off the road and almost killed himself and his girlfriend, before a lot of the Hart Lee Dykes stuff got out or all the crap at Colorado and South Carolina and Oklahoma State made the news, before the Proposition 42 controversy, before I asked Florida State's "Neon" Deion Sanders what it was all about and he said, "Money," and even before the NCAA's $1.75-million report on athletes came out and Martin Massengale, the chairman of the NCAA Presidents' Commission, told us that all big-time college sport needs is a little "fine-tuning"-that I started to lose it.
