  1. Would not have gotten the exposure if went straight to the G league either. Also, probably would have been paid A LOT less!
  2. Final argument in the case wrapped up today. Attorneys out there, why was the defense not able to call the undercover FBI agents involved to testify? Defense argument was that the FBI agent, not Dawkins - pushed the bribe the coaches scheme. Also, the primary FBI agent was apparently removed from the case for his own impropriety (lotsa govt cash in bags in Vegas hotel room - temptation city!) How/why would the defense be precluded from being able to call them to testify?
  3. Nah - Memphis is a Nike school too - just need to reallocate from a few internal cost centers. Penny came to P(l)ay!!
  4. I think it’s perfect if he chooses to try to play for greasy Will Wade!
  5. Puhlease! Pitino was a huge cheat at every place he’s been. At U of L he cheated on his wife, the team, etc. in major ways. Petrino in football would’ve sold his own kids to win. The culture there was very consistent- from its leadership up to the AD and school president ‘do what it takes’! This was institutionalized and supported.
  6. This is on Glass! If this is how we choose to manage while all others don’t abide by **** — goodby competitive athletics. We should just make them all intramural and drop out of the B1G like University of Chicago - back in the day!
  7. This! They’ll come for LSU too. Kansas - with Self on text - will walk away untouched along w all those you listed!
  8. Ironically, he wood have been the seventh guard at NC that Roy had on roster if he lands Keeling! Would have loved to hear Huckleberry Hound smooth talk through that creaning!!
  9. Lester just needs a little HoosierGuy love and certainty!
  10. Good pickup! Still need outside shooting, big time!!
  11. Truth! And if we’ll managed, his family will be set for generations.
  12. Agree. A pretty well compensated Bust!
  13. Boeheim has always appeared to me to be a selfish, self-serving SOB! That’s why he told MCW he wasn’t ready.
  14. Best quote from article is last sentence... “The NCAA is like Batman if he spent all his time beating the **** out of jaywalkers.”
  15. Clearing space for the Doogie Brothers? Hope not.
  16. Just theorizing, but I would say his strong @$$ offers...greater than the league minimum...might have had something to do with it.
  17. Couple of Crystal Ball flips from Memphis to LSU, including Jerry Meyer. Certainly influenced by Will Wade reinstatement today, but still makes you wonder... how does a family look at what’s out there on Wade/LSU and think - yeah, let’s send the boy there - that’s the coach I want to be a role model for my son!
  18. What risk is there for schools cheating from the FBI and the feds? Prosecutors fight allowing hard as it gets evidence of coaches blatantly on the take, and judges have been accepting the lame argument. Emmert is spineless so nothing to come from the NCAA. It’s (the NCAA enforcement wing) a paper dragon, and now EVERYONE will know it - most already did. Cheat like mad, if you get caught deny and lawyer up. If you thought the arms race for cheating was bad before...just wait! Do the right thing....NOT!
  19. Laranaga must have made another strong @$$ offer. Only thing he’s got going now is playing time.
  20. Completely unreal! It takes burning down 3 programs, adultery with an assistant’s wife, prostitution for players - and THEN - handing out bags of money in a car at a 7 eleven to have any consequences anymore (Pitino). The new rules post FBI scandal are there are no rules!
