NCAA BASKETBALL CORRUPTION SCHEME
- Thread starter Carsalesrgood
- Start date
On a side note, Louisville AD Jurich and Larry Eustachy are good friends going all the way back to when they played high school ball together. There were rumors swirling back in the day that Jurich would hire his friend Larry to replace Denny Crum but he went with Pitino instead.
Yeah - it's as if he believes that FBI raids on major colleges is a common thing!
Jurich actually has a house out here in Colorado. Maybe they'll be seeing a lot more of each other now.
It isn't a scandal until the IRS shows up at his house asking him about the unreported shoe money.
This isn't a race issue. In fact, the only color that matters in any of this is dollar green.
The genie has been out of the bottle for quite a while, and AAU parents (and even the kids) are wise to how the game is played. Can't blame them for trying to get something, as nothing in life is guaranteed and "everybody else is doing it". Hope ISU isn't involved with this, but nothing would surprise me at this point if something shady didn't happen in the past. I hope the FBI will concentrate on the biggest fish - were the NCAA handling this I'd expect the blue bloods to get the customary wrist slap and the ISUs of the world to get mega sanctions.
If this rolls over into football, I've got misgivings about the Chiz years, cause Chiz and his need for a bag man, err chaplain. But, we've lost so many games over the years that if we're this historically poor AND we've been cheating, well, I just may have to be done with football on general principle.
So if we have to forfeit losses, does that turn them into wins for the record books?
Converse has been waiting in the weeds looking for the perfect time to relaunch the LJ Grand MaMa's.
The time is now!!!!
I still have mine from middle school.
Wednesday night, Alabama accepted the resignation of men’s basketball administrator Kobie Baker after an internal review. Baker’s previous job: assistant director of enforcement at the NCAA.

Not as exciting as a verbal denunciation, but Pitino's lawyer making noise:

I get the distinct impression that your average sports commentator is completely out of their depth on this one.

You thinking you're going to be one that's let go?
The more I think about it the more I see Roo's making a come back.
Nothing is better than "Roos for your feet, pockets for your stuff!"
