Re: Sports Illustrated - Oklahoma State
It's going to get worse. A lot worse. Few quick thoughts ...
1. T. Boone Pickens would do well to separate himself some from the football program, express his faith in the athletic director, and remind all that the program is innocent until proven guilty.
2. An NCAA investigation will come soon. Heck, 90% of their job will be done by the time SI publishes everything.
3. Though the Big 12 will be disappointed in a member program if allegations are true, there are probably powers that be at Oklahoma and Texas, the Big 12 big boys, that aren't too unhappy to see this happen and have their suspicions proven true.
4. Oklahoma State might end up as a candidate for the ol' slap-on-the-wrist penalty.

Re: Sports Illustrated - Oklahoma State
Beckman coached at Oklahoma State for a couple years. I wonder if he'll be mentioned at all. There's a lot to be skeptical about, though. Most of the sources were disgruntled ex-players and several of the more prominent ones have denied the allegations.
