Arizona was doing what all the other big programs are doing and doing it better than most. I have mixed feelings on all this. I don't think they can ever fix the cheating. The teams that figure out how to best bend the rules will usually get the best players and generally be better teams. History indicates this. I don't want us to cheat ever but I don't want us to lose eternally because others are. Mixed bag. What to do? Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app Completely "fix" it? no, I agree that's not gonna happen. But you can make it so painful to cheat that it's not worth it for most. The risk/reward is so out of whack that they have to cheat to keep up with the Calipari's, er I mean the Joneses. If the NCAA would stop with the 3yr long investigations that end up with nothing and instead drop the hammer it would make a difference. IMO, simplify the rules then enforce them ruthlessly with harsh penalties. Otherwise cheating is too profitable. JHoosier914, Stromboli, thebigweave and 3 others 6 Quote

Brass Cannon Posted October 23, 2017 Posted October 23, 2017 Will Hurt even play college ball? It's possible the 1 and done rule is over by then. Quote

IMO he's going to college even if the NBA changes the rule because the one negative of his game is his lack of strength. His game is great, highly skilled but he needs to get vastly stronger before he can play against grown @$$ men. ALASKA HOOSIER and HoosierAloha 2 Quote
