Adam had the beat on Bland to SMU back when it was about to happen a couple years ago when he was still at Rivals (and when that site was still worth a crap). Everyone was pretty excited about the potential hire back then and were all kinda bummed when it didn't work out.

Talk about dodging a HUGE bullet. Sheesh

It’s not really news, but the damn has to find a way to implicate SMU somehow.

The NCAA will say let criminal justice system do its job. And after convictions the NCAA will announce justice has been done and no sanctions need be leveled against schools involved. On another note SMU will be punished for enforcing the new Title IX due process regulations. And North Dakota U will be punished for being the Fighting Sioux.

Miami other than the usual corporate denial has been silent about Larranega. Never had any problems with NCAA even while at George Mason. Given their history of lack of institutional control, I would not be surprised to see him canned.

All I know is that the students need to be relentless when we play USC. Perhaps monopoly money everywhere and hundreds of U$C signs

Sounds like Pitino will be fired this morning.

Defendants facing sentences that could range from 20-100 years max. Probably outside the realm of real possibilities but they are definitely facing hard time. Going to get ugly once people start cutting deals and rolling on others.

End of the sham that is amateurism in college athletics?

Louisville needs the death penalty for this. Can't wait to hear the tapes of Louisville coach arraigning 100k payment for a kid while on probation be described as "no evidence of a lack of institutional control" by the NCAA.
