I think for some recruits it’s a combination of getting paid and “sticking it to the man.” These kids don’t really look at it as breaking rules. The NCAA is a dinosaur called corruptasaurus. The kids/handlers are just trying to get theirs.

I think you’re right. I also have no problem hearing a guy like Self selling recruits with a line like, “the system screws you. I believe in taking care of you any  way I can and I won’t apologize for that.” A certain kid/family would eat that up. You know Will Wade is selling it like that.

More on Wiseman and Memphis making the same argument others on here have already raised:  It (NCAA) should consider suspending Memphis coach Anfernee “Penny” Hardaway before it thinks about James Wiseman.

I will agree that the players get punished far worse than the coaches that are involved. The NCAA needs to get a pair(they won't) and do the same with coaches and Institutions

Closest thing to Wiseman situation could be nick emery from a few years back at BYU.

When the NCAA gives coaches the just cause penalty, many have went the NBA asst route. They still make a good chunk in salary.

The middle finger NCAA playbook has been bound! UNC, Kansas, LSU, Az, many others. Memphis just opened it and played chapter 1.  Memphis wins here - and got a behind the scenes deal w the NCAA to step down. Wiseman will sit a couple of cupcakes, then ball out. Emmert is nothing if spineless, and certainly  knows when his balls are in a ringer and becomes VERY responsive, very quickly when he needs to. Otherwise it’s stretch things out forever and hope they go away from public memory. Everyone goes back to spreading around lotsa shiny pennies!

Florida and Towson tied at half. Penn St up 9 on Georgetown but the Hoyas look much better. Penn St having trouble with the press

Stevens is having a bad game as well. They had a stretch where they couldn’t break a press. Curtis came in a drained a step back 3 and on the very next play defensively he was lost and akinjo scored

They will be tough inside. Not any big names but they play fundamentally well. I just like watching Akinjo. Kid is entertaining. I like watching ex recruits though.

I do wonder what it would take for Chambers to be fired. It feels like he has been there forever. Can’t really say the program is that much greater since he came.

Towson still hanging in it. Tied with Florida with 7 min to go

No Ncaa tournament and he has had some good players go through his program. I posted his B1G record last year. It’s not pretty I believe it was around 30-80

They should finish in the top half of the league. They have some experience and talent. It’ll be interesting to see if they can keep their head.
