Oklahoma State 'disgusted' over postseason ban

Oklahoma State, which had been given a postseason ban in 2020 but played under appeal, is now banned from the 2022 postseason, a decision by the NCAA that coach Mike Boynton said he was "disgusted" about.

Mike Boynton in tears at OK State’s press conference: “I’m disappointed, disgusted, appalled, frustrated but somewhere in Indianapolis is a group of people celebrating … They won.” “It was a single NCAA violation. One player received $300.” “It’s no wonder nobody trusts them.”

I feel the same way in this thread I felt in Hank's thread, and all the other threads that looked at what's coming.

Louisville is going to get obliterated.

As others have mentioned, not sure how or why a fan could truly enjoy this season either. If Louisville plays it's way into being a threat the NCAA will ban them this year.

It is best to hold on to the past, hope to be around 5 years from now and maybe the smoke has cleared by then. Will still root for what is left of Louisville basketball though. And maybe they can be competitive despite what's coming. Just don't seem likely.

Can’t see us getting any more than what OK State got. Ok State was just like every other school except us in this - basically telling the NCAA to “eff-off” and daring the NCAA to do something about it.

UofL already proactively took what amounted to an ENTIRE YEAR ban by firing the head coach just before the 2017-18 season started AND had an assistant with 6 years experience plus hastily promoted grad assistants coaching the team that year. We also fired the AD who stood by the coach, resulting in a lawsuit that cost UofL lawyers fees and eventually a severance package for the fired AD.

In other words, UofL was the poster child for how the NCAA would have liked to see every school involved in this to act, and UofL is the only one who did so.

AND … the guy UofL was involved with never played for UofL (unlike the OKState player). The only one who ever got any money was his dad, directly from an assistant coach who was also immediately fired.

If we get hammered with a postseason ban, it’s going to be because of the additional secondary crap that went down last year in addition to the FBI stuff. This is why the secondary violations are so disappointing … the NCAA already acknowledged that they recognized the proactive steps we took in firing Pitino and Jurich.

Louisville was on probation when the Bowen stuff happened. Louisville is going to get smacked like Katina Powell bent over in a dorm room.

Also it would not surprise me if the boom comes in mid-March when Louisville is having a great season and it's the Friday before Selection Sunday.

NCAA is dying and deep down they know it and just like the politicians they admire, they believe doubling down is the way to go.

They're wrong! Louisville may end up being the last school the NCAA slams before they're shown the door. The power conferences are on the verge of leaving and something that seemed so ridiculous a few years ago is a certainty.

In my opinion.

Hope you’re right. THINK YOU’RE WRONG, UNFORTUNATELY.

I don't see, other than the NCAA suddenly dissolving, any way UofL doesn't get absolutely hammered. I don't want to say "deservedly so," but, what we've got coming, it'll be 1,000% earned. I'm ready for it, too. Time to move on.

The Supreme Court has already ruled the NCAA are fraudulent. Glorified Tournament organizers, we need to rehang our banner and sue them.

I didn't read the article because I'm lazy. Did OK St go the IARP route ?

When did that happen?

When did that happen?

If this happened it would have been big news. I don’t remember it either

 

[CardX]

When did that happen?

It didn’t. The SC ruled on NIL. Party boy Kavanaugh said some stuff about the NCAA. It was opinion, not a ruling.

The Louisville/Kansas cases boil down to is Adidas a booster? I think that is going to be really hard for the NCAA to legally support. Historically, I don’t think that has been their position. A regular booster sure can’t giving student athletes anything tangible. I don’t think the NCAA language supports their claim. Booster can’t give an extra benefit or recruiting advantage. Nike/Adidas has been in deep for years selecting which schools players go to. They have always provided gear for athletes. How are they different than UPS for example? It is a very gray area. I think that is why this is taking forever. I really don’t think they know what to do.

Without the Adidas angle there is nothing else except minor violations. Johnson-no tangible data that suggests he paid Bowen. Completely relying on Bowen who was a crook from the get go. Fair was part of a conversation where nothing actually happened. He should of reported but that is minor.

I think even if the NCAA sticks to Adidas is a booster then both Kansas and Louisville will sue the NCAA. I don’t think the courts will side with the NCAA since they have been in deep with the shoe companies for a really long time.

When they ruled athletes can profit off of their image and likeness and told the NCAA’S lawyers slavery ended in the 1800s
