"The Dirty Game"
In a Sports Illustrated article entitled "The Dirty Game", the story of Oklahoma State University and their recruitment process is brought to public attention. The recruitment process as described in the article in not only illegal, but immoral and disrespectful. All of the morals that the University stood for were completely disregarded. First of all, a bonus system was created for players. If they played well, they were paid well. Jobs were created for players to get money. However, players either worked terribly or did not show, and still received money. Oklahoma State University staff members would do school work for the players. Teachers would bend grades in order for players to remain eligible. Drug tests were failed, but the results went under the radar. Members of a recruitment group had sex with recruits. All of these were direct violations of NCAA rules, and the University will be punished.
