Corruption in College Basketball

[Ajwhitis]

No former IU players have been represented by Andy Miller. Lots of Clemson players though, which is unexpected.

I lied, Jared Jeffries is one that is represented by him.

That Zion Williamson supposed offer is interesting. Trying to make Clemson BB equal Clemson football.

Wouldn’t it be justice if IU was not involved and the investigation results came out early and several schools were barred from participating in THIS YEARS NCAA tournament. And —To get to 64 teams they invite IU into this year’s field! OK—let me dream a little !!!

Yeah! And Romeo, upon hearing this news, immediately declares for IU! Trump re-names Christmas to Cappymo day, and the Brewers win the fricken World Series! Come on people! You gotta believe!

Proof the NCAA couldn't care less?   Vanderbilt has two top 15 recruits next season; another top 60 kid; and may land a fourth player who's in the top 5.  This is the same as Northwestern adding these kids.   In one class.

Nope.  Nothing to see here.

I hope we're not involved but, in response to this comment:

 One source with knowledge of the investigation estimated that ASM Sports was paying more than three times as many prospects, and families of prospects, as clients they signed.

Also, Miller isn't Troy William's agent, but his agent also works for ASM.

Ncaa has never cared

The problem is the ncaa will never punish the top teams. Can you imagine 10 top schools on big time probation? Programs like Duke and and Kansas losing scholarships and being banned from the tourney? Yeah I did not think so. They would lose so much money it's never happening but one can dream.

This might be a case in which the NCAA has no choice but to punish top teams. As much publicity and the Feds being involved could potentially tie their hands.

Just because Andy Miller doesn't represent any former IU guys (besides Jared Jeffries) doesn't 100% mean he, or any of his runners, didn't pay them. For example, agents that are paying players to induce them to sign will pay 10 kids in the hopes that they sign 3. I was in the football biz, so it was common to hear multiple kids coming into the Draft every year that was getting paid by multiple agents.

Man, if the Big Ten would've had a drinking team, I would be rich!

"Regarding the FBI probe...I've heard the #Buckeyes went back and scrubbed their recruiting methods and players for the last 10 years (youth programs, high school, everything) and came up with nothing. There's no worry at Ohio State about that investigation."

Scrubbed... probably not the best word choice.

Also, ASM Sports please don't!!!!!

If some of our players were paid I hope it brings down Fred Glass and McRobbie.

If we were paying players than Crean should have to pay his buyout to IU.

Too big to allow to fail! That sounds strangely familiar.

As others have said, if IU was cheating/benefiting from cheating over the last few years it's pathetic. I mean what are we the Dollar General of corruption? How much did McRoberts get under the table? What is the going rate for a +100 ranked player like OG? What kind of car is Al Durham driving?  

Sheesh, if you cheat and JBJ and Thomas Bryant are the best you can do.....I don't even know what to say.

I want the hammer to fall. Kentucky, UNC and Duke are on my most wanted list. Syracuse and Kansas are close behind. D-bags make me sick. 

 

 

Schools like Kansas and Duke have probably been paying 5 star players for so long they are absolute pros and this. All paper trails are covered there is probably a fall guy (booster)  put is place if anyone ever gets to close.  The day you see an NCAA sanction against Coach K is the day pigs fly.  If you are getting your hopes up you are setting yourself up for a  massive letdown.  The types of schools who will get nailed are the second tier schools like  Alabama, USC, Missouri, Wake Forest, Illinois, Texas, etc.  A message will be sent but just not to the big boys.
