Oklahoma basketball in trouble?

  • After Iowa State won the Big 12, a Cyclone made a wonderful offer to We Will that now increases our match. Now all gifts up to $400,000 between now and the Final 4 will be matched. Please consider giving at We Will Collective.

I am sure this stuff goes on EVERYWHERE. It's one of the reasons I just simply can't stand college basketball anymore. It's a dirty, dirty business starting before kids even get to high school.

I'm sure CFB has it's issues as well, but I don't think it's nearly as bad as it is in MBB.

I think it depends where your at...Midwest is pretty good for the most part.

Definition of a sooner:" 1. A person who settled homestead land in the western United States before it was officially made available, in order to have first choice of location." = CHEATERS!!! = OU

It does happen a lot of places and most of the time it can be related to the shady dealing of the AAU programs. Just like the connection that Calipari with Wesley Williams. But Calipari isn't directly involved just like i am sure capel is not that is how they avoid getting in trouble. There are middle men like Williams who have contacts with agents and AAU coaches and then the funnel players to a school with the promise that they will push the kid to a certain agent. so it is usually the agent that gets caught giving money and not the college coaches, i.e. Calipari, and they get to keep their hands 'clean'

the allegation, if true, is not that ou is cheating. it is that gallon received improper benefits from an agent. the agent isn't an ou booster. if anything, he's basically trying to steal one of their players.
