The habit gets a new name.

Pete Golding’s response to questions about Lane Kiffin was surprisingly diplomatic. He claimed to have no hard feelings towards Kiffin, despite the controversy surrounding his departure from Ole Miss. On the other hand, his comments on tampering were more revealing, implying that everyone is doing it and that Ole Miss needs to keep up. It’s just another day in the world of college football, where recruiting scandals are just part of the game. The “new normal” is just a euphemism for “business as usual”.
