Duke, UNC, Louisville, Texas, Maryland, Ohio State, and others had players taking payoffs from shoe and sports agents. NCAA shocked. Bimijie State should be very nervous.

Kentucky might have to vacate a few wins from 4 years ago. Nothing will happen but it is interesting to get an insight into why some recruits made the decision they do and interesting to correlate winning teams to this type of recruiting activity.

all that will happen is vacated wins. SMU will have still received the harshest punishment by far

Weren't we recruiting Diamond Stone back when LB was here? Seem to recall he took a visit and seeing him at a game. Probably a very good thing that Snacks and Ulric are no longer here...

even if the ncaa doesn't want to penalize these teams I suspect that most of the players or their parents failed to report those payoffs on their income tax returns, hence tax fraud which could possibly include prison as well as very stiff penalties. JMHO

So does our official final record from last year go to 30-3 or 32-3?
And when do we get Semi Back on campus so that we can play Baylor in the second round?

FBI: Duke, Maryland, Ohio State are guilty.
NCAA: Appalachian State, Towson State and Kent State to be flattened.

ADVANTAGE?

College basketball is a complete cesspool. The NCAA has been asleep at the switch for years. . .why kill the golden goose!? But the FBI doesn't care. They will blow this thing wide open when it's all said and done. It's actually not that hard. . . just requires some basic investigation. Football is not dissimilar in that its a corrupt swamp. Everyone knows what is happening. . . just haven't had anyone try to turn over the rocks with any real resolve. I just pray SMU doesn't get caught up in this.
