Title: "Suitgate" Put to Rest Post by: Jamos on August 18, 2011, 10:52:38 AM Columnist Larry Burton has written an article that pretty much sums up the "suitgate" issue that so many Bama rivals wanted to make such a big to-do about. Having been in the clothinbg business at one time, he explains how he and his business treated their customers and how it caused the big stir.

Title: Re: "Suitgate" Put to Rest Post by: Hannibal Lecter, MD on August 18, 2011, 11:08:05 AM No offense to Larry Burton and his expertise, but if you're giving UNADVERTISED special to athletes (which he alluded to himself doing), then I doubt the NCAA would look too kindly on that. It's not the same as the Joseph A Bank ad, no matter how he wants to put it.
I'm confident that in the University's compliance investigation, but this article does not make me feel better. Giving a regular customer who spends a lot there a discount for loyalty and giving an athlete who buys one suit a year a discount are two totally different things, because I don't think Burton or Albetar either would give me a discount for buying one suit a year from them.

I have to agree.
