Re: Sampson - How Many Times? | |
Let's be careful here. The issue this time was not breaking NCAA rules - rather it was mistakenly disobeying the SANCTIONS. The issue was that Sampson was not supposed to call recruits or engage in 3 way calling with a recruit and another coach as part of the previous penalties. He never called a recruit (as phone records will attest), but he unfortunately had a few 3-way calls with a recruit and coach Senderhoff. Let me repeat, Kelvin did not break NCAA rules on calls. There is some accusations that Senderhoff did, but not Kelvin.
As an MBA alum of IU, this is saddening but not horrendous. Also keep in mind that this all came out of IU's compliance investigations - not NCAA investigations. I give IU a ton of credit for self-reporting this, and not trying to bury it.
