Rick Bozich - Source tells @WDRBNews that The University of Louisville has received a response from NCAA to school’s response to its notice of allegations.  Response will be made public Monday.

 

Let the leaks begin.

Pitino has not been punished by the ncaa, correct?  I suppose a show clause isn't an effective penalty now that he's rehired at Iona.

It'll be interesting to see how they split the punishments between University-6 and Pitino

You'd like to think Iona was smart enough to put language in his contract to protect the university.

The NCAA, along mdn, has suggested "Hookers for all! and no classes."

Early report from Rick Bozich and it wouldn't bode well for L'ville.

It's a 70-page document but the NCAA enforcement staff appears to dismiss most of Louisville's rebuttal to the one Level 1 and three Level II allegations against the men's basketball program.

 

From Jordan Crawford:  Also, NCAA enforcement rejects the argument that Jordan Fair was essentially a bystander in the Las Vegas meeting, and maintains that Kenny Johnson did provide money to Bowen’s father.

Personal comment --  Maybe Tae Davis should have waited a few more days before announcing his commitment?

The Zion Williamson case is starting to get interesting. 

https://www.yahoo.com/news/documents-allege-adidas-paid-ex-011502903.html

"Starting with a $404 payment on Nov. 14, 2016, a list of nine payments are detailed with the last being an $800 payment on Sept. 12, 2017, according to the letter. The largest payment was $1,107 on Feb. 14, 2017, the letter states.

The nine payments total $5,474."

No wonder the Adidas schools can't compete!

So, they paid Williamson 5k and Brian Bowen 100k? Forget illegality, whomever is judging talent for Adidas needs a new career.
