Lie Test Clears Butts and Bryant of Fix Allegations
Former Georgia athletic director Wallace Butts and coach Paul Bryant reportedly passed lie detector tests regarding alleged collusion to fix the Georgia Alabama game. Butts attorney William Schroder said the test showed he was telling the truth, while Bryant also claimed truth. George Burnett, who heard the call allegedly linking the two, offered to undergo testing with sodium pentothal. The Georgia Athletic Board noted a telephone record placing a call from Atlanta to Tuscaloosa at the relevant time. No further comment from Butts or Bryant was provided.
