We're a little behind with this one, but in case you missed, RB recruit Bryce Brown has a manager/trainer who is threatening to take his client to the CFL instead of college. After committing to Miami last year, where his brother plays, Brown didn't sign with any team on signing day, instead dragging this out a little longer. Brian Butler, who gained all his extensive football knowledge as a cell phone salesman, says he could get $5 million a year for Brown's services north of the border. Slight problem, BB, as the salary cap in the CFL is $4.2 million - per team.Butler also has a web site where you can get the latest about Brown's recruitment for $9.95 a month or $59 a year. Dammit, if only my credit card wasn't at its limit.
I, for one, welcome this development. It's about time football matched it's NCAA brethren, men's basketball, in absolute corruption, sleaziness and street agents. Next season, I'm sure Butler will become an assistant coach somewhere.

He wouldn't be a real Miami top recruit without doing something idiotic. Typically they just stick to the generic criminal act. This is a new one.
