Darren McFadden's Availability In Question
Last week Darren McFadden could be seen driving a new Cadillac Escalade. Now, questions are being asked about how he got it. According to a complianace director from another University, if D-Mac received the car as a payment for future services, he is then a proferssional and no longer elligible for college football. That would mean no Cotton Bowl. If he simply went in and bought the car, got a loan like any other shopper, with a delayed payment plan, he is still within NCAA guidelines and would be elligible for the bowl game. Razorback fans have to be hoping it's the latter case.
Sports Information Director Kevin Trainor told us that the University is aware of the situation and that their compliance director is investigating.
If he did accept it as payment for future services, he'll all but seal a top 10 pick in the 2008 Draft. However, he'll have done it at the expense of his teammates and his alma mater...
