I'm talking about other players who may have denied it - pretty sure one of their ex walk ons did for example.

The above two denied nothing, and Rozier's statement would keep me up at night if I were a cards fan.
If you want somebody to talk, just offer Behanan a nickel bag. The man would turn the whole athletic department in.

That was Jody Demling. He used to work for the Courier Journal as their "impartial" basketball recruiting guru which is exhibit A of how much the local media are complete sell outs for UofL.

He used to host a radio show locally for a UofL sponsored station, but the guy has gone total Line beard homer.
Yeah when you blindly do what he did, you lose credibility as a viable journalist.

We've already been through our probation and we've had it thrown up in our faces for 25 years!!

I won't run my mouth about it publicly because that's tacky but karma is at work here.

I'm just happy that I won't hear much from them about sports for the next few years.

First time I have ever listened to their show,

Demling making absolutely ridiculous arguments in order to try to keep propping up the Slick One.

The other two guys seem to be saying it is time for a complete house cleaning though.

Here's a visual representation of Vanetti addressing the Pitino situation to Demling...

Saying Meiners will have Rick on at 5:30...........promises something frank. Could Rick resign? Can Meiners really launch frank questions to RP?
I doubt Meiners puts Rick on the hot seat. I just don't see Rick willingly walking into a hostile interview.

I kind of feel the same. I have several UL friends and most you can't discuss BB anyway. But I won't boast publicly.

Just had to share this gem from ULarder over on their board.

"I've been waiting to see what facts actually come out, but at this point it looks like some version of "entertainment" occurred. But when you strip it down (sorry couldn't resist) isn't it just an "extra benefit" case with the benefit being a small amount ($50-$250) provided by a young assistant not much older than the recruits. If it occurred, was it stupid? Yes? Was it illegal? Yes, but so is underage drinking by 18-20 year old college students; and nobody gets all self-righteous about that. Was it immoral? Well, that's subjective and irrelevant. Two consenting adults not hurting anyone else (or even themselves) have to decide for themselves what is moral or not for them individually. Basically, my point is that this isn't the kind of thing where Rick needs to fall on any sword. It's obviously the type of salaciousness the media loves, and juveniles snicker about. But, if Roy Williams and UNC can go on with impunity for the worst, most massive college basketball scandal in history - one that actually cheated and took advantage of the players themselves - I think Rick and UL are going to be fine in the end here."

i heard that. i nearly spit my beer through my nose

I'm pretty certain that was Jennings being sarcastic as that has been his point all along; keeping UL fans in check over UK fans finding joy in this as they would do the exact same thing if the tables were turned.

I'm proud of Dave and Tony. They've held the line very fairly all week long on this matter and calling Jody Demling to task was nothing short of amazing.

The underdogs are talking about it right now on 790. Says no sex, just strippers dancing and the only money exchanging hands were dollar bills thrown at the strippers. Anon though...

The "out" so far is "This particular player told a university investigator that no sex took place (that he knew of), and that the only money he saw changing hands came in the form of dollar bills thrown at the women in the room".

Nothing to see here people! Move along!!

Which is bs. Having been to a few bachelor parties in my time, I know that strippers are not showing up for free only on the promise of dollar bills. At least, I've never seen that before.

Some UofL fans are really saying "it's not prostitution though so nothing wrong happened". Are you kidding me?!!! HAHAHAHA!!! And
