The President of the University of Maryland has some real big cajones to make the public statement he did in this article.  If only he would prove to be a perfect prognosticator and UNC does indeed get the death penalty.

Chastised for saying what everyone else is thinking!
However, in the world we live in, the ethical and common sense approach is debated and protested! (or rioted).
Boeheim, Williams, Pitino, and Calipari are blatantly playing by a different set of rules and they get a bronze statue!

Pretty unusual for a school to deny a release.  Wonder what the story is behind the denial.

Garrison Brooks, a 2017 Mississippi State signee, has been denied his release. Could enroll at MSU in the fall or attend a prep school

Let's face it, though. If an athletic program isn't gonna get the death penalty for enabling a child rapist, it's never gonna happen. The "death penalty" -- with respect to major programs -- died with SMU football, methinks.

From what I've read it sounds like he's UNC bound.

Just saw that VCU basketball player Mo Alie Cox is meeting with some NFL teams this week.

New Mexico hires Paul Weir. What makes this odd is that he is/was head coach at rival New Mexico St.

Really scathing piece from Gary Parrish on what Tubby Smith has done to the Memphis program.

If I was building a team in CBB right now, I would try to recruit hyper competitive guys along w/a few stars. Not just acquire talent.

With Bridges and Trier coming back to college Creighton could be positioned to land Brian Bowen. No surprise Duke is looking to make a late run at him along with Oregon.

Michigan State is going to be real good next season. They are battling Arizona for Bowen though.

Yep.

Jackson, Ward, Bridges, Winston and so many others. Bridges returning was night and day. Really unbelievable.
