@Crimsonorblue22 Thanks for posting what I didn’t want to take the time to. I’m so tired sometimes I just let people believe whatever they want to post. I miss having Mike in da mix. Just ain’t the same without his take. Didja see Paulo kick ass & take names tonight? Just like old times girl !! Is the last hurrah for Daytons guys now so bittersweet just makes me grab the brandy & ice water .
-
I did! Not missing Sunday. Heading to late pm sat.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Enjoy & drive safe. Gotta have savvy in this day & age, good intentions ain’t enough. A little.32 cal in that Coach bag would help too.Woman in OP yesterday KO’ed a thuggery with a groin kick on Indianan Creek jogging trail. Dumped a can of whoopass on him, yeeeaaaah!! Now he can sing soprano .

@Kcmatt7 @KUSTEVE @BeddieKU23 Ok so Collin Sexton took 25k from Bama. I’m feeling better about KU slowly here. If KU was dirty, no way Sexton gets away that cheap right?
-
@BShark should our recent re- up with Adidas for $191 mill over 14 years worry us?
Can we “decommit” from Adidas; how about Puma? LaGerald doesn’t mind rocking soccer shorts I’m sure. Their shoes run narrow but surely they have a wide model.

I’d be more worried about a “recruit from 2010”.

Is it confirmed he got the money…
What I was reading is his father met with Michel who wanted to steer him to someone for the NBA? They facilitated money for that. But you have to think there had to be $ involved before hand too.
But yes so far nothing that points to KU doing anything dirty… Maryland fans on page 60 something still claiming KU is
-
The NCAA must be really pissed, they have a lot more work to do now lol
-
The funny thing is the state of Alabama probably just found out yesterday they have a basketball program.
-
@mayjay Bob Barker products… Come on down Jim, you’re the next contestant on The Price is Right!
-
Does anyone remember who the lead assistant was on the 2010 recruit that wasn’t Woolridge?

PHOF times 10!
-
If Sexton’s dad accepted money he has to be ineligible right? How is this any different then Cliff Alexander.
-
Where are you going with in regards to that?
-
@BShark Yep. And it’s ironic how it is always guys that the staff recruited their asses off for. We watched Sexton how many times? Visited him over and over. Put in the work. And then it slips away “because Avery Johnson played in the NBA and he knows what he’s doing.” I always knew that was bullshit. Makes a ton more sense now.

Rumours flying that FBI is digging particularly deep into the Baltimore area. Not sure what the statute of limitations is, but that was one that definitely didn’t smell right. Hopefully KU is clean that far back.

Yeah I’d buy staying close to home over Avery Johnson knows what he is doing. Ha.
KU was def on Sexton early. Tried real hard on that one.

So are you talking about Selby?
-
Yes. It’s all crazy rumours until something is official. Great time for trolls and fake twitter accounts though I guess.
-
Most of the the bromides about recruiting became BS in the petroshoeco era.
He’s great closing with parents.
They had the PT to offer.
His girl friend is there.
He wants to play for the best.
He wants a coach that will challenge him.
He loves the tradition.
It’s the housing.
He is tight with the assistant.
His dad went there.
He wants to play with his friend.
He grew up watching them.
He loves the weather there.
They’ve won a ring recently.
That coach can really relate to the new generation.
It’s the way they stage their late night.
ALL COMPLETE AND UTTER BULLSHIT.
It appears to be the money.
P…S.: I have long hoped that players would be paid legally. as one is for most any kind of job, so that the greatest game ever invented did not get caught up in this kind of issue.
-
@BShark Appears that the SOL is 5 years.
Under federal statute 18 USC 3282, individuals are protected from prosecution for any noncapital offense in which an indictment is not found within five years of the criminal act. In most cases, noncapital federal offenses that do not meet these guidelines cannot be prosecuted. However, the repercussions of federal criminal corruption are so far-reaching that, in practice, a revelation about corruption can result in probable cause for a thorough investigation that may uncover current corruption, whether intentional or not.
-
@Kcmatt7 Interesting. Really hope KU gets through this clean.
-
@BShark Any major program that gets through this cleanly will automatically have a leg up in recruiting I think. If we do get through this clean, Bill really will be looked at as a boy scout nationally. And I really do think that will go a long way.
-
@Kcmatt7 Rumours flying that KU will be named today. Not from anywhere substantial yet though. So maybe just jealousy and trolls.

Definitely trolling. Crazy times we are in
-
@BShark I did find that Townsend was lead on Selby. And Wiggins. And Jackson. And Ayton. If we have a coach who is a problem, it is him.

Welp.
-
-
@BShark Was that from the AAU team?
-
@BShark Who was that from?
-
@BShark But, we lost Ayton. Jackson signed with UA. And Wiggins didn’t need money. Selby also probably took money from Adidas and so he picked Tennessee. UT ended up getting investigated for the Aaron Craft debacle and he decomitted and ended up at KU. So far, nothing to worry about other than the coincedence that KU landed 3 guys in late spring that were recruited by Towns who is known as a phenomenal recruiter. We lost out to Ayton early, and we know he was paid.

Fair enough. I’m still on the cautiously optimistic plan.
-
@Kcmatt7 just imagine how ESPN will be forced to parade KU around as a poster boy for college basketball, as if by acknowledging the program’s cleaniness, they somehow cohabitate the same moral high ground! I can hear all the backhanded compliments now!
-
@BShark If true, makes the Quickley thing seem more legit. Especially combined with the Baltimore area thing. If the name Jide Sodipo gets mixed in with anything, expect a lot of teams to start freaking out.
-
@BShark I am too. I’ll continue to do research and try to find weak spots.
At this point, Towns is the guy too look into. Howard scared me because he is young and could be trying to make a name for himself. But I haven’t found anything yet from him that scares me.

So if its not Little then its Quickley right?
what is going on here…
The player in the report was always Little. Quickley is just speculation at the moment. I think I mentioned that at the time but this is all becoming a blur.

So then I don’t understand why they are trying to say it’s not them. Its the frickin FBI, they are not trolling people.
-
I just saw on ESPN that Nike’s EYBL division has just been served a subpoena related to this.
-
@BShark I think the outbidding scheme involved Little instead of Quickley. I mean, everybody knows Kentucky pays their players, but it still has to be proven. So, i was giddy, hoping it was quickley, but it looks like we’ll have to wait to hear the kentucky sordid details. It shouldn’t take very long.

See my earlier post. 100% the one named in the report was Little and it was between Zona and Miami. The Quickley with Miami thing is a currently unsupported claim.
-
So two years into an investigation and now a couple days later with much more being exposed and the only maybe with Kansas is Selby? The same Selby that was first committed elsewhere and we already know had some impermissible benefits issues. This seems pretty good so far.
Minor concern with Newman and Miss St but there wouldn’t be any wrong doing by Kansas in that situation. It would just pretty much derail the current season if Malik can’t play of course.
-
Is there anything they are looking into as far as Miss St?
Seems like fans just throwing darts at the board and picking any kid. Malik’s father was an alum at Miss St…
I know that is a roster chalk full of “how the heck did these Top 100 kids land here” So it certainly fits the bill, like Auburn did in that regard
Not concerned about Selby seems how the NCAA already derailed him 7 years ago.

I’d like to thank Bama and Zona and the Ville for giving us something interesting to talk about leading up to late night. First time in months this board has come alive!
-
Surprised the Arizona players haven’t been confirmed yet. Seems how Book recruited the east Rawle Alkins, Brandon Randolph would fit that description. Randolph landing at Arizona always seemed to be out of place to me
Alkins is out 3-4 months with a broken foot now too. I’ll be surprised if Ayton isn’t linked to something like the ASM thing.
-
Looks like the news trail is slowing downnn. Now we wait for the random news report…
-
@BeddieKU23 more subpoenas will come. Have to sort through all the fraud after that though. And figure out who knew. What invoices were fake. All that forensic accounting takes a lot of time and effort.
-
Curious that Ben Simmons and LSU is not in the mix. That was a head scratcher.
