Corruption in College Basketball

Recommended Posts

Couple of more interesting reads.  The first is Roy Williams (then at Kansas) crying foul back in 1998 over Mike Miller's decision to go to Florida.  The second raises a question about Zion Williamson's eligibility but of course nothing will come of that because it's Duke.

I know people believe this will be swept under the rug, but it really feels like the hyenas (the less dirty coaches) are about to turn on Scar (Coach K, Roy, Self, Calipari)

I could see Kansas getting nailed to the wall so they can pretend to care

Big problems at Kansas which could lead all the way to the top. My biggest question is how are any of these players that received extra benefits still eligible? Discussing Zion Williamson demands? Duke and/or Nike must have met them so the NCAA should investigate him and Duke? I would love to see UK, Duke, UNC and Kansas all go down. They have excelled in this cheating culture with championships and Indiana has not. This explains how we haven’t gotten these top players and still looking for banner 6. Kinda puts extra calls which decimated our program into perspective.

And now Mike Miller is in a recruiting position with Penny at Memphis?  They both know how this works.

Matter of time folks...

I think one thing to always remember is that Mark Emmert leads the NCAA. He has proven time and again that he is ineffectual. He always avoids offending the big names in basketball and football. He looked the other way when UNC had the most massive academic cheating scandal in history. He will try to finesse the current cheating scandal with some minor token punishment and then claim victory.

Kansas is the epitome of filth. All those consecutive Big 12 titles that College basketball has admired year after year.

Honestly if anyone deserves the death penalty it’s Kansas now and Louisville from yesteryear.

I was just thinking something similar.  Kentucky is renowned for a long history of cheating, but Kansas has a similar long history of ignoring the rules.  Larry Brown, Williams while at KU, and now Self.

Me thinks ol' boy Roy and Mikey K have their "Sam Gilbert's" take care of their situations for them and that's why they can plead ignorance.

I've been reading comments on here about this topic the last couple of weeks. My question to all is, will the elimination of one and done change this situation much?

No, the schools that have shown to be perennial cheaters (Kentucky, Kansas, North Carolina, UCLA, most of the $EC, and the likes) will continue to pay top dollar for the best available college talent.  They cheated before one and done was a thing and IF it's eliminated they'll find a way to get money to those who influence the top recruits who will play in college.

Absolutely. They may even have more worth to the colleges, one could argue. Getting 2-4 years of a talented kid compared to 1.

And supply and demand. As long as coaches multimillion dollar contracts depend on W/Ls, u can count on it.

Holy sh1t, I just saw Louisville got Aidan Igiehon, making it their fifth 4* player in the 2019 class.

They won't miss a beat at all.  Pisses me off that we got taken to the woodshed for freakin' phone calls.
