"Several Pac-10 schools" file complaint about Peetie's cheating
“Several Pac-10 schools” filed a complaint against Peetie this week for this:
It appears USC coach Pete Carroll committed an NCAA violation when he attended Loyola's games against Mira Costa of Manhattan Beach and Concord De La Salle on separate days last month.
Mike Matthews, the Pac-10's associate commissioner of compliance, said NCAA rules stipulate a coach can only evaluate a player once during the fall period, regardless of where the game is being played.
"When a football coach evaluates at a game, he uses an evaluation for every prospect on both teams that are playing the game," Matthews said. "The (NCAA) rule says, `Not more than one evaluation may be used during the fall evaluation period, and not more than two evaluations may be used during the spring evaluation period.'
"If a football coach watches a football game, they've evaluated everybody on both teams in the game."
Matthews added it did not matter where the games were played.
He would not comment on whether the Pac-10 is reviewing the incident, but said such instances are usually a secondary violation.
Carroll told the Daily News earlier in the week it was his understanding the rules allow for coaches to attend multiple games of the same team if they went to watch another team's prospects.
This is not the first time Peetie has gotten himself involved in a recruiting scandal. I will just refer to Menelaus’s legendary list for all the sordid details on Peetie’s past scandals.
Imagine the outcry in LA and national MSM if Rick Neuheisel was involved in something like that after all that baggage from last few years involving Bush, McKnight - on and on and on?

I'm just hoping they don't rule on this until next season
Then the new commissioner will be in charge and hopefully he will won’t be the useless tool Hansen is.

LA Times has nothing on this story
Second Choice has a good question: where are the questions from the Trojan Times and rest of LA’s MSM? If Neuheisel did anything close to this Plaschke and Simers would be all over it.
No surprises here, folks.
Cheatie Petie cheats. Nothing happens. Status quo preserved, which is all that the various administrators want. But woe betide anyone else who cheats.
His statement is utterly ridiculous
“…it was his understanding the rules allow for coaches to attend multiple games of the same team if they went to watch another team’s prospects.”
In watching one team’s prospects, you’re also watching another’s. Two teams play at a time, y’know.
It should have read
“… it was his understanding that the rules do not apply to Pom Pom and his unlawful band of criminals since, according to thug Rey, ‘own the police’.”
the Pac 10 has done nothing (re:Bush &Mayo)
Will do nothing now. See nothing, Hear nothing. Say nothing.
My guess is the next Pac 10 Commish will be Col. Klink.
A coach is someone who can give correction without causing resentment. John Wooden
Next Pac 10 Commish
I heard it is going to be Mr. Magoo, unless he takes the head referee job for the Pac-10…
Hmmm
This sounds like the type of thing that a coach at Washington would get fired for. Apparently its ok with the trOJans. Why should they play by the rules if nobody will provide them any consequences for breaking them? Thanks Pac-10. Thanks NCAA.
GO BRUINS!
