Alabama Booster Murder
 
Does this story reek of something bigger to anyone else?

Basically, a guy was convicted of paying off a high school coach to make sure his player went to Alabama.

He was murdered and it sounds like it was savage and/or brutal. The sports news keep covering it, but no one is saying whether the two are linked, just making the insinuation.

This may just be news because it was such an influential booster, but who knows?

ESPN story

It has to be a Auburn fan that did it.

If you read the story, it would much more logically follows that a Bama fan killed the guy. He hurt the program pretty damn good.

The Alabama fans will end up blaming Phillip Fulmer. Everything else is Fulmer's fault (at least in their eyes).

The whole thing just feels very sick.

As an Alabama fan I can say this.

1. Now would be a retarded time for an Alabama fan to kill him (it's a possibility it was one). The probation is finally over. Had this happened like a week after the scandal hit I would say it was a Bama fan for sure.

2. This guy was apparently involved in alot of other shady business and had many enemies.

3. The guy's connection to Alabama was and is continually blown out of proportion. They always refer to him as some "powerful booster" that was heavily involved in the program and crap. He was indeed a booster, but just one of thousands Alabama has, just like every other major sports college has.

4. The entire affair stunk, from this shady guy's dealings, to Philip Fulmer being a secret witness, to the NCAA's sham investigation and mock trial.

Its a police coverup don't let if fool you. The police are big Bama fans and have been plotting this for years.

Either way you have to love how it goes from a brutal crime scene with blood all over the house to the guy falling down the stairs.
