Yes. I have seen the Carnell Tate "speculation" about a potential transfer.

While it is true that he has a girlfriend that is a member of the Oregon women's soccer team (notice I did not say plays for since she has actually never played a single second in three seasons), but the speculation that Oregon tampered and was offering him 1+ million were so ridiculously false that I did not want to lend credence to the lunacy until it became clear he was staying at Ohio State.

In the past I have spoken about how a lot of the "coaching rumors" are really nothing more than agenting. Well. Expect some similar agenting among college football players as well.

The "rumors" about Tate were fancy agenting techniques to maximize his next deal. He never talked with ANYONE at Oregon.
