Heard yesterday on ESPN radio

[sao123]

During an interview with Barry Switzer, he claims that a D1 universtiy was caught cheating... but he wouldnt name the team...

They had tapped into their opponents microphone sets for 15 years...
This has to be bigger than Baseball steriod scandal...

Anyone else hear this segment?

No, but Google is my friend. I did hear it though.

My googling also indicates that Switzer fingered BYU. Text
Who knows how true it is, but I love this kind of intrigue.

Bigger than Baseball's steroid scandal?

At least the college will be punished, instead of celebrated when breaking the most coveted record in all of sports... :roll:

And I doubt the BYU staff is going to be brought in front of Congress.

LOL - nothing will be made of something a small religious school supposedly did 20+ years ago.

All of 2 people left in the country actually still care about baseball... football is america's sport. If this would become mainstream knowledge... im quite sure there would be an outrage.

Whatever. :roll: I guess you live in Pennsylvania with the Pirates & Phillies, so I can understand why you don't like baseball.

But come on, BYU bigger than steroids? BYU has been a non-story so far, I haven't heard it talked about once on sports radio here in Chicago so far. Steroids still come up maybe once every other day. Usually just in passing commenting about fan disgust.
