FWIW, I've been beating this drum of paid recruits for a long, long time and many people on here have given me crap for it over the years.

Not me. I want it cleaned up always respected iu when knight was here for playing fair or so i believe. I want us to run a clean program and win the right way. If crean cheated i hate him and will be devastated cause we sucked

Multiple sources who’ve been briefed on the case and are familiar with the material obtained by feds told Yahoo Sports that the impact on the sport will be substantial and relentless. Sitting under protective order right now are the fruits of 330 days of monitoring activity by the feds, which one assistant US Attorney noted Thursday was “a voluminous amount of material.” That includes wiretaps from 4,000 intercepted calls and thousands of documents and bank records obtained from raids and confiscated computers, including those from notorious NBA agent Andy Miller.

“This goes a lot deeper in college basketball than four corrupt assistant coaches,” said a source who has been briefed on the details of the case. “When this all comes out, Hall of Fame coaches should be scared, lottery picks won’t be eligible to play and almost half of the 16 teams the NCAA showed on its initial NCAA tournament show this weekend should worry about their appearance being vacated.”

Ho.  Lee.  ***.

Honestly just as big as they make it seem, and we have a known connection to someone we know was dirty. Vonleh comes to mind

I swear if that dude was paid i will lose it. He quit to save his draft stock. Wont call names but i have a few i would say. Nobody under crean should have gotten a dime besides vic and he didn't cause he blossomed later on. Not one guy should have been paid. I am drinking tonight so sorry if i am being harsh but if we paid anybody under crean i am mad. I would pay morgan and mcbob before anyone under crean

Crean didn’t land the big five stars which makes me think he wasn’t involved in anything shady. Preston, Goodluck, Jaren Jackson, Brian Bowen, Wilkes, Lyles, etc. went elsewhere.
As far as Vonleh is concerned, IU recruited him hard. His commitment was brought about through diligent effort.

Also another poster showed all our nba guys signed different shoe deals than adidas. We were clean under crean. That was all i respect him for hopefully that is not taken away

I agree I think Crean is clean, but I'm still a bit worried about some of his assistants.

Chuck Martin was the lead recruiter for John Calipari and recruited Derrick Rose.  Kenny Johnson coached at University-6.

Nervous, man.

I'm not saying he deserved it but they said no one came for free so like it or not he was a top 10 recruit and prolly had offer sheets.

A part of me wonders how much longer the NCAA as we know it can really last, after this debacle and getting caught up in the Nassar/MSU mess.  They've proven beyond a shadow of a doubt that they're either extremely corrupt or laughably incompetent, granted pretty well everyone already knew that.

I also remember a few instances in which players were held out during NCAA investigations into the program, seemed as if Crean took these things very seriously. Remember Parea and Hollowell being two specific instances in which they were held out of games, and for considerable amounts of time.

Does anyone remember when Crean alluded to all of this? What all happened in the behind the scenes that he wouldn't take part in. Was it post game when we lost to Georgia Tech? I'm having trouble finding it.

Yeah. I think he mentioned it in an indystar article after he was fired
