Where’s the proof UK paid Anthony Davis? There are accusations, but no proof. If I’m missing something then show me the proof.

Ask the three separate universities that said AD was paid. Do you believe the Sun-Times reporter just made up this and lied about having 3 sources to back up his story?

Here's my point, idiotic UK fans whine about other schools getting away with paying players yet the same thing happens at their school. Why didn't the NCAA investigate this matter? Why did the NCAA ignore UK boosters paying players back in the Joe B. Hall era? The NCAA could have stripped UK of at least two national titles if they wanted to.

Absolutely right. Do you police RR this closely when they throw out unbased Zion accusations? I'm not going over there, but I'll assume you do - you aren't a embarrassing hypocrite or anything are you?

I don’t pretend to be the board police. If you think someone is making up lies about Zion, then by all means feel free to go to Rupp Rafters and call them out. There are good posters and bad over there the same as there are here.

What’s the actual proof? You say 3 Universities and a hit piece Illinois fan journalist say. What’s is the actual proof? There is none! Like I said before there is a big difference in accusations and actual proof.

Let's not forget that Bam showed up as a "Bad Loan", Jarred Vanderbilt and Ashton Hagans were all mentioned in the FBI probe. Funny how there was little outcry over that but Gilbert Arenas, who has little ties to Duke basketball players makes a statement and he is 100% accurate.

I think I would trust the FBI before trusting Gilbert Arenas.

There’s also Bam and his $36,000 floating out there also!

I haven’t mentioned any Duke player being paid.

I don’t think there was ever anything confirmed, but the accusation had to do with a shoe company paying money to Bam’s handler for North Carolina State.

Are you able to show any proof that the money was for Bam's handler and NC State?

I was banned from RR. Posters called Duke a trash school. After I posted the USNWR rankings for Duke and Kentucky, I was banned for posting "Spam". Yes, US News and World Report is considered spam on RR.

Your Nazi moderators rule with an iron fist over there.

According to these Kentucky fans, Gilbert Arenas is considered to be a credible source while a newspaper reporter who says he 3 sources to back up his story actually has no proof of any wrongdoing.

That's why I call UK fans the most insecure and jealous fanbase around.

That’s what the talk was, but I really don’t care. There were never any charges lodged against UK for it.

What about Vanderbilt and Hagans being on that list as well? They were on the list of players that were going to be paid.

On Wednesday, Sood also acknowledged during cross-examination by Dawkins' attorney, Steve Haney, that he met with Pina and another man to discuss paying then-Kentucky forward Bam Adebayo and other UK players in hopes of landing them as clients for his financial management company.

"Stephen Pina was trying to position you by paying Bam Adebayo, and other kids at Kentucky, and he told you it would be expensive, didn't he?" Haney asked.

"Yes," Sood replied.

"And you understood that to mean that you were going to have to pay a lot of money to get those kids from Kentucky, didn't you?" Haney asked.

"Yes," Sood said.

This is what I find so funny. Kentucky fans think all Coach K does is cheat to get kids or that kids are paid behind the scenes...sounds like that was happening right under Calipari nose. Of course, very little ever came of that as well.
