    He names names of the college athletes he paid. I he claims that Keyshawn Johnson was one of those who wouldn't take money, I'll bet a dollar to a donut that JO'Co will fall over laughing at that one. USC boosters pay more than Agents, why would he take the Agents money when he can get more from the boosters.

    Anyway a very interesting article.

    Lots and lots of names, lots and lots of schools.....interesting assertion regarding Santonio Holmes.....makes the claim that Santonio said not to even bother meeting, he was already with another agent and the agent was providing for his family as well, so don't bother.....????? Of course Santonio says the guy is full of sh!t, the guy and his pal claim that's what Santonio told them.....hopefully that was Santonio's way of blowing him off and not taking anything from him/signing with him, but I'm sure we'll hear more about this one as well as many others.....

    No doubt college football will have plenty to debate on these guys and the article.....

    re: Keyshawn Johnson

    LOL! That is funny. If ever there was a player who didn't need an agent, it was Keyshawn. He literally grew up in the USC parking lot. He was a ballboy with the team and attended practices from the time he was a kid. What made Reggie Bush so much easier to catch was the fact that he DID have an outside agent down in San Diego who wasn't affiliated with anyone in Trojanland. A new house for his parents, instead of the usual booster-provided bachelor pad/car/cash was a red flag for NCAA investigators. Rented/leased items and cash are difficult to trace, making guys like Keyshawn; Anthony Davis; or OJ nearly impossible to catch...
