HoosierAloha Posted October 17, 2018 Posted October 17, 2018 My radical opinion is that if legitimate paying becomes the norm, the NCAA as an organization is toast as well as most of the major conferences as they're now comprised. New conferences will be formed and I could envision a basketball team belonging to a different conference than does its football team. Or, in the alternative, many schools will drop football altogether because they can't possibly compete from the $$ standpoint and the sheer number of bodies required to field a football team vs. other sports. Just $.02 from an Old Fart.Does that mean Rutgers is dropped from the Big Ten or Delaney adds every team near a big TV market to the Big Ten?

WayneFleekHoosier Posted October 18, 2018 Posted October 18, 2018 LSU has always been more than willing to do the dance. Wade is just the new guy in the cog. He sounds like a cheating SOB either way. What I find funny is despite the $ the on court results have been less than impressive. SEC is truly deplorable. Bruce Pearl is cheating all the way up and down the block. Alabama same. Pretty much the whole conference. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners Quote

Class of '66 Old Fart Posted October 18, 2018 Posted October 18, 2018 Zagoria's article on today's closing arguments. Defense attorney didn't hold back and it does't make Self or Pitino look good regardless of did they or did they not know. Schachter argued Thursday that Kansas coach Bill Self and former Louisville coach Rick Pitino knew about payments to players. He said Gatto acted on the coaches' behalf to help Adidas and their schools, not to defraud them. “Kansas’ head coach knew of and asked for a payment to be made to Silvio De Sousa’s handler,” Schacter said Thursday. “Coach Self and Coach (Kurtis) Townsend knew of and asked for this payment to be made to Fenny.

Class of '66 Old Fart Posted October 18, 2018 Posted October 18, 2018 Couple of more interesting reads. The first is Roy Williams (then at Kansas) crying foul back in 1998 over Mike Miller's decision to go to Florida. The second raises a question about Zion Williamson's eligibility but of course nothing will come of that because it's Duke. http://www.wdrb.com/story/39295516/bozich-or-coach-k-roy-williams-air-ball-opportunity-to-lead-college-basketball https://sports.yahoo.com/zion-williamson-new-cam-newton-dukes-new-star-face-eligibility-issues-season-210307389.html WayneFleekHoosier 1 Quote

WayneFleekHoosier Posted October 19, 2018 Posted October 19, 2018 Kansas is the epitome of filth. All those consecutive Big 12 titles that College basketball has admired year after year.

HoosierAloha Posted October 19, 2018 Posted October 19, 2018 The funny thing is it seems like they are making it out to be an adidas thing. Who the hell do they think they were competing with for these recruits. If the NCAA has its way converse and puma will be hammered over all this!

My biggest question is how are any of these players that received extra benefits still eligible? Discussing Zion Williamson demands? Duke and/or Nike must have met them so the NCAA should investigate him and Duke? I would love to see UK, Duke, UNC and Kansas all go down. They have excelled in this cheating culture with championships and Indiana has not. This explains how we haven’t gotten these top players and still looking for banner 6. Kinda puts extra calls which decimated our program into perspective. Deserthoozier and mamasa 2 Quote
