NCAA BASKETBALL CORRUPTION SCHEME

[Dandy]

Let's get the premature and unnecessary freak out started. How long until Prohm is mentioned as a candidate for the Louisville job?

Already there. Post 468.

Already there. Post 468.

My bad missed that

Where will Bruce Pearl go when the hammer falls?

The one name I think everyone is completely shocked hasn't been mentioned yet. They are another school who regularly loads up with top rated recruits that leave everyone scratching their heads and asking how they scored that.

Baylor's overall 24/7 ranking the last 8 years
2016 - 40
2015 - 46
2014 - 61
2013 - 20
2012 - 4
2011 - 30
2010 - 48
2009 - 112

2 real outliers here. Something to look at I suppose.

Iowa after Louie takes Fran

How quickly does the NCAA come down with punishments? You would think there would be initial punishments right off the bat and then more after they find out more information. I would say that the schools mentioned should all be on immediate post season bans.

Where does UNLV fit into this?

Yeah, basically admitting that he didn't do the recruiting because the check looked good.

Kid should've held out for Cam Newton money.

Schools need to be awfully careful in recruiting any of the kids that decommit from these schools because who knows if they took anything?

The other question is how quickly the schools move to punish themselves. Auburn is apparently looking at fielding a team of walkons with no coach (season ticket refunds mentioned earlier) and Louisville might be much the same.

Also, wonder who is coaching Louisville this year because Pitino isn't the only coach that will be gone. It will be a skeleton crew.

ESPN U err ESPN The OCHO

I agree in regards to anyone player suspected of being involved. 5 star, one and done talent might be hands off. But there might be some really good 4 year talent, 4 star type players looking for a new home. If we could vet them thoroughly and they are clean, we do have the luxury of a scholarship to give.

My Theory:
Louisville hires Richard and get's him hooked on meth immediately, their fans will never know the difference.

Has anyone properly thanked Paige Hoiberg yet? Our little mole deserves some credit.

Hopefully he will get tucked away in a clam's shell for eternity!

Another interesting thought...depending on how much the schools themselves were involved as opposed to coaches, could the school ADs end up losing their 501(c)(3) status? I believe that illegal activity is grounds for losing non-profit status.

One area that Kentucky fans need to worry about is the FBI raiding ASM. They have a number of Kentucky clients. Wouldn't surprise me if they get caught up in the whole agent side of this investigation.
