    What a buffoon. Who in their right mind thinks they can extort a company as big as Nike. He's lucky they just didn't whack him like a Saprano's episode. This is comical. Leaves you wondering though if he had any real info on Nike, or was just going to throw out a bunch of BS to get their...

    Check out the governor

    His sports affiliation has no bearing on the disgrace he is as a Governor. If it was U of L celebrating a bowl win he would be there in red I'd bet.

    Ok I know this is late in the game

    From the Internet ---The discovery of corruption in basketball stemmed from an investigation of Pittsburgh-based financial planner Marty Blazer by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). In 2016, the SEC charged Blazer with wire fraud and accused him of embezzling over $2 million from...

    UK Giddy

    UK is playing by far their best right now and given the struggles this year, I'd say that's a pretty good coaching job. Probably only Nova an Duke playing consistently better the last month.

    For those attacking Ramsey and Jurich

    Ramsey and Jurich deserve a ton of credit for what they did for the University and city of Louisville. They also deserve to be fired for what they did over the last few years. Just because they did great things for a lot of years, doesn't get them off the hook for doing bad things.

    I’ll bet money...

    It was an extra benefit decision. Do you think it would have been different if they had all been given cars and/or cash?

    This sleezeball knew, yet there's a chance we lose the banner.

    Emmert being a total buffoon and miserable excuse for a human doesn't change the fact that stripper gate happened. Just because something 100 times worse went on at MSU doesn't get U of L off the hook for their impermissible benefits.

    UK fan harasses Quentin Snider's mom via Facebook

    Only because we have more fans that the next 50 universities combined. More fans = more idiots. But that's no excuse for this stuff. It happens too often and reflects so poorly on the rest of the fane base. The worst members are the ones that get the most publicity.

    UNC decision delayed

    Apparently, they were announcing some big fund raising program today and didn't want the negative news to affect it.

    Grissom and Postel

    Postel seems like the guy you need to keep around.

    UL Asst Coaches

    Adidas paid the money, that's part of why their exec was arrested. Their exec cooked their books to hide where money was going, a federal crime. U of L assistants just told them who to send money to basically.

    UL Asst Coaches

    They weren't arrested because they didn't take bribes directly for themselves. They just facilitated money getting to the recruits and/or recruits' families from Adidas, allegedly. That's not a federal crime, just against NCAA rules.

    Federal Corruption Charges for 10 in College Basketball

    The FBI can get warrants for the wiretaps, and under cover agents and whatever other tools they need. The NCAA can't. The NCAA won't be able to extend this investigation out much further than what info the FBI supplied them. And the FBI isn't investigating college basketball, they are after...

    Federal Corruption Charges for 10 in College Basketball

    I think it's important to note the Feds said the investigation is still on going with interviews and reviewing evidence, so there may be a lot more schools and coaches named later on.

    Federal Corruption Charges for 10 in College Basketball

    Aight, I'll give ya that. Same here. If the FBI is going though all the work, I can't imagine they didn't at least look at other companies than Adidas. I guess we'll all find out more with their press conference here in a bit.

    Federal Corruption Charges for 10 in College Basketball

    "But everyone else does it to" is not a very good defense.

    Federal Corruption Charges for 10 in College Basketball

    The report says Bowen was paid to commit to "School 6" which is the one people are speculating is U of L based on the details about enrollment and already being on probation. And now they are saying there is tapes of the phone calls. Wiretapping was used to gather evidence.

    Federal Corruption Charges for 10 in College Basketball

    This is going to be insanity. It's one thing to be an NCAA investigation, an FBI investigation means they got you dead to rights on serious stuff. Some Adidas execs going to federal prison most likely.

    TBT?

    Basically anyone can make a team. You just can't have anyone currently under contract with an NBA team. It's easy to form team heavy with specific schools because most of those guys know each other and are willing to play together. Here is their site with a good breakdown of the rules and...
