    Oversigning.com

    Considering how close we are to national signing day, this is a site you should check out. It'll only get more attention in the next week and a half but they monitor these numbers year round. When they're not in overdrive, as they are right now, they basically look for guys who have been wronged as a result of oversigning.

    Here is the most recent update on Oversigning in the "Oversigning Cup Standings" :



    Ole Miss (SEC), Alabama (SEC), and USC (Kiffin ) are 'leading' the pack at +10.

    But be sure to check out South Carolina's class of 31 and Arkansas' 28.

    I'm not a big fan of the NCAA making the rulebook thicker, but this seems to be an area that needs to be reigned in. If you want to know why the SEC has five straight national championships, this is probably the biggest reason (well, that and the pay scale). It certainly creates and uneven playing field, but the worst part is that a lot of student athletes get hosed by these schools. I can see allowing oversigning by one or two to allow for recruits that won't qualify, but there's no reason to allow more.

    In Texas I believe they call this "culling the herd." It sucks but as long as the NCAA allows it to happen, some school is going to take advantage of it.

    maybe they should have to take a 1 point hit for every player oversigned for the entire season. they might not like it very well if they start the games down 10 points and lose by 1.
    Whenever you think it can't get any worse for the huskers, just remember the glory days of Callahan.
