NCAA forces Memphis to repay 2008 NCAA Tourney proceeds.

That in additon to vacating all 38 wins, all records and achievements (Final Four, CUSA win streak, etc.), and are placed on 3 years probation.

The report states that Memphis must return its 2008 Final Four trophy to the NCAA and that all school records must reflect the forfeiture of wins, meaning that former coach John Calipari is no longer the winningest coach in school history and the record is returned to Larry Finch.

Looks like we made the Sweet 16.

But will they have to take the banner down.

 

[MSUCostanza]

I believe they have to take down all banners - Final Four, NCAA, CUSA, etc.

for the Grizzlies back to back to back first round of the playoffs banner for 2004-2006.

That got to suck for their fans.

Rose "failed" the ACT 3 times. Then, 1 month before he enrolled at Memphis, he took the SAT in DETROIT. A high school kid from Chicago taking his test in Detroit. Yea, that makes sense. Wonder who put that together. I'm pretty sure Detroit is the home of World Wide Wes.

I'll give them a call and get back to you in about 15 minutes.

but it wasn't Derrick Rose. That was the problem.

You'd think, though, that they would've had it taken in Chicago at least.

Was he the one with the neck tats or was he the one with the Preamble to the US Constitution tat on his arm?

 

[OMlawdog]

So a kid from Chicago takes the test in Detroit and this isn't red flag for the NCAA when deciding if Rose is eligible?

The NCAA isn't stupid, they let Rose in because he is an amazing talent, and would bump TV ratings, would be gone after one year, and then they could punish Memphis when they wanted, and yes I see Black Helicopters all the time.

Until the NCAA breaks up the AAU minor league circuit that has developed, all of this crap won't end.</p>
