NCAA BASKETBALL CORRUPTION SCHEME

Dang, I would think so, they pretty much fired the assistants yesterday as soon as they were named in investigation or arrested.
I feel bad if he has to pay back the money. I have no sympathy is he gets 100k and pays nothing back. I figure it will cost my kid 100k to go to college for four years, he has college paid whether he plays or not if he keeps it.
I think all players should get paid a little bit regardless of their ability, kind of like as much as other kids get paid for being in a work study program.
After that, kids should be able to sign endorsement deals and make money off of their likeness. A guy like Georges could have made an absolute killing at a school like ISU. Plus then we might get NCAA football and basketball games back.

The trickle down effect on the class of 2018 is going to be interesting.
They dont look at Prohm do they? There is a Kenutcky connection with Murray State, I assume they can get a much bigger name, but he is a clean cut guy they can sell as cleaning up the program? Just spitballin
Always knew Pitino was a cheating SOB. Glad someone is finally doing something about the corruptness of college athletics
Go after fran, heard he gives spending money and allows free use of a car for a current player and future recruit.
This was actually a fear of mine as well. I'm sure they look at him. The fact that the season starts in a month works in our favor - I don't see Prohm bailing on his players before the start of the season. Had this story happened in July then Prohm would have been the best candidate available.
Do you willingly walk into that mess?
I think this might create a seismic shift in coaching hires too. Adidas, Nike, and UA money is going to dry up at these big schools, or at least they are going to be much much much more careful in how they distribute their $$ to these schools.
I also hope that a smart coach who is currently safe from this scandal will want to remain safe and avoid a job at any school with a history of paying recruits.
The problem is that the NCAA isn't able to gather hard evidence like the FBI. There is a ton of cheating going on but these guys are able to keep the paper trail fairly clean and the NCAA can't gather the evidence that they need.
Why would a rising coach go to Louisville when they're about to get hit hard? Post season ban, loss of scholarships, etc. No way.

This is where I'm at. Although I think there will be at least a dozen open coaching pos's at P5 schools in about 30 days.
Ever since Oregon burst onto the scene with all of their Nike money I've had a hard time understanding where the line needs to be drawn as far as the amount of involvement these companies have within the program. To me it has always seemed pretty shady.

If Fran went down it would be a pretty rewarding day for UNI and Drake
He is officially out, along with AD Tom Jurich. Good riddance.
