Wow. Talk about giving the middle finger to the NCAA.

 

[AGEE11]

So the biggest cheating coach retires and it's a slurp fest of how he "did things the right way"

Then the second biggest cheater gets a lifetime deal in the middle of an investigation.

No wonder congress is hammering the sport

I don't know which one of you bastards keeps slipping crazy pills into my drinks, but it needs to stop. This can't be real.

It's to aid recruiting... ease kids/parents concerns.

Wow! So Kansas just went "All-In" on Bill Self and they're telling the NCAA "bite me!" Well, that's one way to go. I think it's very telling. They either have been given indication that nothing will ever come of the infractions or they just don't think the NCAA has the guts to really do anything to them.

If Kansas and LSU get no penalty does this break the illusion for those few left who believe that college basketball is not a business and amateurism is real. UNC should have put an end to that.

It is a payoff from Kansas, once the Hammer comes down Bill takes the bullet but is paid forever to not mention other issues at the school.

 

[Fannin12]

Kansas just told the NCAA to suck it!

Nothing to lose from here. They have the most damning list of infractions of the programs listed. This has to make Wade's day. NCAA is finished.

I don’t really care about the purity of “amateurism” as an ideal, so much as I want every Division 1 team to have a reasonable and competitive chance at the players and therefore at building a top program and winning.

Now one could argue that most schools never had a chance, but it’s well and truly gone out the door when you allow blue bloods to pay players more than most schools could afford.

If Kansas skates, the NCAA is done.

Might be anyway, but this would be the final nail in the coffin.

Of course they will skate. Seen this movie before, starring Roy Williams and Rashad McCants

Can't blame them. It doesn't mean I support their cheating, but it's been proven that teams that cheat are better off not cooperating with the NCAA. At least that's true if you're considered a blue blood, and Kansas qualifies.

He got life in prison or at Kansas?

Louisville has to be kicking themselves for not taking the UNC route and telling the NCAA to take a hike.
