Is that feeling you're having deep in your gut??? If it is, it's prolly just the tacos and beer you had for lunch!

Just saying everyone hoping for so and so to get caught and it could be us instead our luck.

The only reason I'm concerned is because Archie was an assistant at Arizona under Sean Miller

I can say I am honestly not concerned over something that occurred in 2009-2011.

Im not concerned about IU in this

[TXHoosierDaddy]

Not concerned at all. Right off the bat, there are a good 10-15 programs that already stand out as guilty in some capacity from the initial reports that would be before us. And there are another 10-15 that you just know are doing something illegal that would come before us.

I agree with completely.

However, we seem unlucky when it comes to matters like these.

Overall I'm cautiously optimistic. BUT I want to see the Dirty Dirty burn.

Hope bumper stickers were involved.

Had Archie been here a couple of years I would be worried. As it is he is likely to early to have already paid someone-no 5 star commitments yet.

Holy smokes. Rick Pitino received 98% of the cash from Louisville's contract with Adidas. Unbelievable.

"In 2015-16, for example, $1.5 million went to Pitino under his personal services agreement with the apparel company while just $25,000 went to the program, according to a contract obtained by the Courier-Journal under the state public records act.

The year before, Pitino also got $1.5 million, while the department banked just $10,000."

So Slick's mistress and the prostitutes likely received more Adidas money than the athletic program/university.

I hope the guilty burn. If we cheated, in this manner, under Crean we deserve what is coming. College basketball needs to be cleansed.

I'm not worried. I get the feeling Sean Miller will skate anyway. These assistants take the sword for head coaches and I'm sure his Richardsons lawyer is telling him not to talk about sean.You got Arizona's president fully behind Sean. They know the money at stake and are happy to throw Richardson under the bus. Even if he says miller knew the ncaa will do nothing. I guarantee the assitant will take the fall.

No. Nothing at all will really come of this. A few assistants will get fired is it. The cheating will go on as usual

You should hear the Cards fans down here, its laughable! "You need to check the sources, Courier Journal is full of it, CJ is trash don't waste your money, no way that is true...."

To top off the Pitino money, Jurich is paid twice as much as the next highest paid AD in the country ($5.4 million taxable income). The school also pays his bar/food tab, 3 golf course membership (one is $25K, another $27K a year)! I honestly think this school is in need of a cleansing from the top to bottom.  His listed income last year was more than the university budgeted for its departments of Biology ($3.3 million), English ($4 million), History ($2.4 million) or Mathematics ($3.5 million). That's pretty sad considering the school is at risk of losing its accreditation!

I get that none of this is proof in a courtroom, but logic would tell you that if this is proven to go on at Louisville, it had to be going on at other places that make a habit of collecting one-and-done players. Especially places that seem to collect multiple players year after year. You can't convince me that these players are going to University X, Y, or Z because the coach is such a great guy or he is going to get them to the league. Let's face it, they could go to Indiana State and still get in the league.

Yes, there are a certain number who have morals and aren't interested, but as has been stated here before, if you come from a background of limited resources and someone is willing to give your family a few hundred K, it would be pretty tough to turn down.

So there is just no way you can convince me that Adidas has to pay kids to come to their schools, but kids just love Nike so much they want to go there. It doesn't pass the logic test. So, if the NCAA is really interested in being fair and not just profiting off of all of this, they HAVE to investigate. Right? Am I right??  ...no, probably not.

That’s what I’ve been saying. There’s no way it was just those schools cheating. He has to be all the top schools in recruiting. But does the NCAA wanna open up a can of worms they big? They already look bad enough. No doubt in my mind UNC, Duke, Kentucky, Kansas even Missouri now and places like that are cheating.
