One of the main links to all of this corruption is a freaking suit tailor (clothier???).

Yes, but they are arresting coaches. That's the most likely scenario to focus in on, unless you're trying to share the secrets of Kansas.
Even then, those are likely on the hit list now, too.
Wrong. Pitino contract has ZERO buyout. He is fighting the "just cause" firing, trying to get everything remaining in the contract, saying that there isnt just cause for him to be fired.
I have a feeling why ESPN doesn't seem to thrilled with this development is their affiliation with these apparel companies. Nike sponsors The Opening and all those football camps. Who knows if there is anything shady there as well? I have read that is a big concern of football coaches is that these satellite camps sponsored by Nike etc will lead to college basketball style recruiting.
In addition, the air AAU tournament games from EYBL and Adidas Nations.

KU is paid $15 MM a year for wearing Adidas. Wiggins commits to KU, plays one year, and now has an Adidas endorsement deal. Joel Embiid commits to KU, plays one year, and now has an Adidas endorsement deal.
Sphincters getting tight in Lawrence.
Also, we now know why Collin Sexton picked Alabama.
Ben McLemore, Kelly Oubre Jr, & Tyshawn Taylor also hold Adidas partnerships as well

Alllllll coincidental.
Remember the improved SEC performance in basketball last year and all this blabbering about their brand of basketball being tough defense, yadda yadda yadda? $$$$$

You're not buying that they suddenly discovered a drive to compete?
Didn't Kentucky cause everyone to raise their game? Well, maybe that last one $ort of happened.
If Iowa State comes out unscathed from all of this it could really be a boost to our program.
Just so we don't get the death penalty when they investigate KU.

I'm not going to hold out hope until this is all over.
It's really hard to play in a sport where everyone is dirty and be the only clean one in the game.
The thing is about all of this is that you will NEVER EVER be able to stop the money especially when someone wants to give it away.
So basically this scandal won't change much until college athletics is overhauled. This system is trying to run like it did when you only saw college basketball(outside of the Blue Bloods) on TV was during March madness

Agreed, and you can already see the talking heads (Jeff Goodman is one) already spouting off about replacements for Pitino like it's a run of the mill hire. They just don't get it, this isn't the NCAA, this is the Feds.
should be fine...I found a photo of our 2017-18 shoes...contract probably won't be investigated.
