Can't believe the usual talking heads are already just floating names to replace Pitino as if this will resolve itself like a normal coaching vacancy.
Maybe Converse can break away from Nike and become independent again...Chuck Taylors for everybody!!

Just hit me what this story is missing so far: A loud public denial by a prominent coach. Something angry, intense, maybe with finger-pointing and definitely tons of self-righteous references to decades of building a reputation.
Someone needs to get out there and make this happen.

Holy crap....seriously forgot about this. Sorry NCAA you let crap like this happen you deserve to get investigated by the FBI too.
The first coach who does that is the next person the FBI look at.
My son will neither confirm nor deny. Most race spectators are parents though...I guess that isn't a total disqualifier from prostitution.
Incredibly, Jay Williams today was heaping all the blame for the corruption scandal on the NCAA. His take is that it's their fault for allowing the shoe companies on campus and cutting deals/increasing salaries with coaches. I LOL when he said you shouldn't even call this a "scandal".
is there ANY hope that KU will be investigated? Cuz that might make me cry with happiness.
I do blame NCAA amateurism for a lot of this. You take kids who have extraordinary talent that in any other aspect of life they'd be able to cash in on monetarily, and you force them into amateur status. Couple that with many kids coming from relatively poor families and being one knee injury away from never cashing in on that talent, you can see the desire to "strike why the iron is hot." Couple that with the big money involved in coaching and this was all bound to happen.
I don't know, I hear ISU has payed the dad of a cross country recruit millions of dollars.
Don't know if anyone else say this, but saw a tweet that said Illini officials very much aware that Underwood could be impacted by this because of Lamont Evans. And that there is a new rule where sanctions follow a coach and that a head coach is responsible for his assistants.
Well, there is a difference between an employment check and an enticement check. In this case...it is legal.
Is it the NCAA's fault that the NFL and NBA don't let kids go professional immediately out of high school?
