NOW we agree completely. All I am saying is that there is a legal mechanism to get Kenny to talk about his whole history of misconduct (whatever that might be) without Kenny creating any new criminal exposure for himself. I also doubt that Crean was part of any of that potential misconduct, and I also have zero concern that the IUBB program will have any issues going forward.

Wellll (ie; not so fast mdn)... Generally: If a case target is looking at an indictment, it is very common for that target and a lawyer for that target to meet with prosecutors and submit to a full, truthful, and complete interview about anything the prosecutors and agents want to ask about while under the protection of a proffer letter/aka a qualified immunity letter/ aka a "queen for a day" agreement. That proffer letter allows the prosecutors to make derivative use of anything said, but exempts the interviewee from the use of the statements during the interview being used as a confession. However, if the interview is less than fully accurate and truthful, there is a codicil in the agreement that allows the prosecutors to use not just the statements as derivative material, but also as a confession. This type of interview is often part of the process of someone being charged as part of an information (a pre-indictment plea agreement). In other words, if Kenny J has criminal exposure and wants to mitigate it, there is a legal-process mechanism that would allow him to lay out everything he knows, including about his exposure in matters that the investigative team did not already know about, without creating additional criminal exposure for Kenny. I strongly suspect that is the type of agreement that led to the cooperation of Marty Blazer and the initiation of the FBI investigation. Is this what is actually going on with Kenny Johnson? I have no idea.

"Fell into their lap" is NOT accurate. Some agents go their whole career without anything good "falling into their laps." Truly effective law enforcement officers think of everyone they meet as an opportunity to leverage information into valuable intelligence and another great case. And that includes defendants from the case they're finishing. Crappy law enforcement officers treat defendants like crap, and therefore seldom learn anything from them. And when undercover FBI agents are involved, it is highly, highly unlikely that an unaffiliated regulatory agency such as the NCAA would ever be invited into the process. That would be a risk to agent safety, the covert operation, and the secrecy of the federal grand jury. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

"Impacted" doesn't necessarily mean "in trouble." Just saying. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

They could supersede with additional charges if they were ready, but for the charged case at hand, the pretrial evidentiary discovery and motions process will very likely go on for at least six months. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

I started reading IU boards (Scout) during the Eric Gordon/Derrick Rose recruitments, and began posting just after Tommy Crean became coach. I think by then it was the original HSN, which had many of the very best of what became this board. This board is currently the best of humor, moderation, potentially interesting inside info, and coherent analysis I've ever seen, but hey, I'm biased!

To once again quote a great message board savant: "I'll trust my source and that's me!"

Maybe on October 22nd of this year!

No, no. NOT Oladipo the basketball player with a game conflict... Oladipo the singer!

^^THIS!^^ And fwiw, it's not just for the recruits, a lot of the students are mucho into it too. I'm not a big hip hop fan, but each generation has their own music, and featuring that music is only natural. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

With great sadness, and at the risk of pissing a few people off, I chose to fix part of that.

Lol...What did Watford see at Bama's practice? "They looked pretty good, honestly," he said. Translation: Y'all know that I expect them to kinda suck and that no one will really mind because, after all, it's Alabama basketball, but they weren't quite as sucky as I expected."

Geez...once again I read that Doyle article and thought that it was just fine, and a fair take. Is there something in this particular article that's got people fired up?

Dats a fact, Jack. Musicians who are really entertaining, popular, and maybe even under the age of 30 (gasp!) are a good idea! That's true no matter what kind of music they are playing.
