He was a really good player. That’s sad news, gotta wonder the circumstances.

Take the time to read this article from July 2012.  You'll be glad you did.  Emmett's relationship with The General and how hard he pushed himself.

Wow.  That is a significant blow to their (PU's) recruiting hopes (at least the message board crowd).  It would seem they are down to only one target that they hoped to land (Dickinson).

Could take a bigger blow if Jaden Ivey decides to open it back up, as is being rumored.

Please elaborate if you can. I had not heard this.

Georgia Tech hit with a post season ban.
Interesting to see what happens with the FBI schools if this is the punishment for infractions Tech did You would think they would get hit harder

Georgia Tech also gets four years probation, fine of 2% of the basketball budget, loss of one scholarship for four years, eight week ban on unofficial visits and recruiting communications, reduction of three official visits, loss of 19 recruiting days. Hammered.

I am not sure because the Kansas boards have been saying this whole thing is NCAA saying Gassnola was a booster. If so, I would have to think this is what we will be seeing with a lot of schools outside of Louisville, Zona, and LSU. Will be interesting to follow.

 

Edit - Damn strippers!

Tech got hit with 1 major violation and they didn’t get hit with a failure to control. Kansas got hit with 3 major violations and a failure to control.

Very solid point. I can see on appeal them dropping one major but not two or three.

Ga Tech became the scapegoat for all the others who will likely get naughty naughty hand slaps.

I knew there was a reason I never liked you!   

But seriously folks.  One of the other parts of the Ga Tech sanctions is:  "A vacation of records in which the men’s basketball student-athletes competed while ineligible. The university must provide a written report containing the contests impacted to the NCAA media coordination and statistics staff within 14 days of the public decision release."

Maybe we won that 2017 NIT game after all.
