What IARP is doing to Louisville is Criminal!

[OldhamCard335]

It has now been over 120 days since the IARP heard our case. Yet, still we wait. Are they having Analysis Paralysis? Has it become a hung jury? Or, is this board just totally unable to function as original designed? At this point, I really don’t think the reason for the delay matters. It only matters that their dysfunctionality is doing financial and reputational harm to this team, this school and this community. I know of no other judicial or administrative body that has ever been allowed to delay a final ruling for this long, especially when there is a real and measurable financial loss to an entire community. I wish I could offer a solution or counteroffensive tact that would move this along but I have none. I would like to see the University sue the organization for a dismissal of charges and a monetary fine plus damages. Doubt that will happen.
But, Dear God….enough is enough!

With it being 5 years it is safe to say the NCAA has purposely drug this out to inflict as much damage as it could to Louisville and others because they know that is the only way to punish the schools.

The member institutions created this mess and the fact they didn’t force their governing body to specific timelines on penalties is ridiculous. This could technically go on for 10-20 years.

Louisville only issue is was Adidas a booster. That is it. To me that is a slippery slope and if the NCAA determines they are then I think that will be a legal angle Louisville will take. The NCAA will effectively be offering an legal opinion that all Adidas employees are boosters. Man that is a big ask to expect Universities to be accountable for people they have zero control of. It would be different if they proved Pitino was directing Adidas. They didn’t. Adidas employees acted on their own, at least that is all they have proven in Louisville’s case.
