You joined yesterday and you ant to start throwing crap? Posting what those dimwits are babbling about is funny. If you don't like it, why don't you stay off of here. Problem solved.

He joined with THAT name yesterday. Easy to spot the retreads. People that are actually new to the boards don't jump into the fray that quickly or easily.

He didn't start throwing crap until it was thrown at him.

Unless it was another thread, I didn't see anything until he called Brians quoting from the UL board dumb. I have no idea who he is, but he sounds new when he starts talking about forum rules. There is a simple rule most of us understand. If you don't want to be punched in the mouth, don't spit in someone's face. Pretty simple.

Anyone hearing any talk of Trey Lyles being questioned in regard to the UofL prostitution scandal?

My cousin (big IU fan) lives in Indiana and supposedly has contacts close to the Lyles family and claims that Lyles and his father have already been questioned regarding their participation in the extra benefits that UofL was offering. While I would not be surprised if it turned out to be true that they were involved, I called BS on this rumor as I would imagine that the questioning would've started with those individuals actually named in the book. But he said, in true IU fan fashion, that Lyles' dad had his hand out during the recruitment process (thus the reason for his decommitment from IU). Told him it all sounded like "Loser's Limp" IU fan rumor because they were still butthurt over losing him to us.

There hasn't been one peep about Recruits who eventually came to UK being involved,leads me to believe that they all were legit talents that wanted nothing offered from wannabe schools and has beens trying to buy their way into what UK has.

You are forgetting something, Powell says money changed hands. If 1 other credible witness corroborates, UL is toast, and evidence of a conspiracy will have been established. Jurich and Pitino have been crazy to make all these public statements. They are thinking about saving the recruiting class and their jobs, but they are participating in a cover up that could bring a criminal investigation.

No I get that, but I think it's unlikely that 1) any player/recruit actually saw money exchange hands and 2) if any player/recruit knew these were hookers. Also doubt she has a receipt or credit card statement. I'd say at best she has texts that they agreed to an amount for services, which is probably enough for sanctions, but not enough to vacate wins/banners.

The NCAA has no rhyme or reason here, and will do what they want to do. I just getting to the nuclear option is going to take more than you think. Probation moving forward? Likely. Vacating wins? Doubtful...IMO

You don't understand the culture. When he refers to ul fans as m'effers, he means it in the nicest way. They're his bro's, his homies, his pals.


I understand the "culture" in terms of how he might communicate with his actual "bro's, homies and pals" but the fans to whom he is referring are professionals, doctors, lawyers, educators (even at loservile) AND children that deserve more respect in an interview with mainstream media than being referred to collectively as "m*fers." Without those m*fers "Elvis" Williams wouldnt be where he is today (was he paid for autographs and pictures WHILE playing? Thats another thread, I digress). Im not disagreeing with you and I think that reference speaks volumes about the loservile culture (in addition to the culture of 20 year olds) that is tolerated and promoted by the coaches and administration. I shudder to think that a UK player past or present would ever refer to the BBN as "m*fers," tongue in cheek or not.

No, I'm not. I'm saying, at this point, it's way to early to know what is going to be proven. Obviously, if the NCAA says someone associated with UL is proven to have paid for the dancers, the penalties will come down. I still don't think if penalties come down, a player will be ruled ineligible. If a recruit had a dancer paid for him while on campus, that is less than $1000 of a benefit. If there are cases out there where a benefit of less that $1000 was given to a high school player and he was ruled ineligible, then I'd love to see it.

Show us one instance where the player or coach lied to the NCAA to cover up their misdeeds and when exposed the NCAA said "that's OK, he just lied to protect himself, we all would".

This issue is a direct violation of the bylaws. There is no gray area for prostitutes. Doesn't matter if they wore bikinis or not. They were provided and paid for by the staff of ul.

He might have opened a whole new can of worms. Id venture to guess he was getting those $100 handshakes as a player too. But some folks can't stay out of the spotlight and aren't smart enough to keep their mouth shut.

For the first 20-30 pages this thread provided some really good information regarding the UL prostitute scandal. Now it's becoming little more than pictures of boobs, fat women and individuals spouting off about how many pages or views it's likely to get. IMO, if I'm a fan of some other school looking for real information on the scandal, I'd leave thinking UK fans are no better than UL fans.

Compare it to what the NC State fans have assembled about UNC's issues---which is a great summary of anything relevant to the scandal. (And some damn good detective work too.)

A suggestion to the Mods, nix the crap in this thread and keep the real content. And if someone wants to make an ongoing carnival of jokes about the UL scandal, start another thread.
How about you settle down and drink a nice warm glass of shut the hell up? :beer:

Acting like every post on the NC State Board is penned by Edward R. Murrow. Douchebag.

I disagree. For some of the reasons you listed, McGee must talk. Either way, he is finished in the college coaching profession. But this is going to become a criminal matter. Trafficking in prostitution, contributing to the delinquency of minors. Probably, fraudulent use of funds. Maybe, fraudulent use of public funds. But 1 of the most serious crimes involved in this would be participating in a conspiracy to hide it from an investigator or prosecutor. If that is on the table, the only way McGee avoids going to the slammer is to work with the prosecutor. In the end, I think he has to, unless he is willing to go to prison to protect someone higher up. And if McGee has a family, he won't be looking to go to prison if he can plea bargain his way out.



I think we kind of agree here, may be a timeline difference.

Due to the criminality issue, his lawyer will not let him say a word - until charges are filed.

And even then he we will wait and see how strong the case is.

If there is enough evidence to convict, only then will they entertain a plea deal.

Just my opinion, would love to see him start singing.

Uofl fan: all these people coming forward are liars.

Uofl fan: Twill said it wasn't true..there it is folks cut and dry proof



Ok so when his quotes were first posted there was no link and I thought it was funny that a poster would mock TWill with such horrible language...


He really said that stuff....


A fine ambassador that man is.



And here we go again...this NEVER happened, but she is going to jail....

I heard the Feds are cracking down, there is a new war on prevaricators.

He said "anyone of significance" John. I think he means world leaders and captains of industry.

Gotcha. Not much anyone can say this soon into the investigation. I thought SI and other media have all thrown it out there as well. The ncaa isn't going to say much until they hand out the punishment though.

Jurich stepped in and backed Pitino in the most unseemly disgusting scandal in the history of the NCAA for any institution not named Penn State. The Louisville DA railroaded that poor harlot and IMO was complicit in UL's scheme to get Pitino off the hook.

Then Jurich goes out and brings Petrino back with all his baggage since decency and honor are no longer criteria they need be bothered with.

Well now all those chickens have come home to roost and they are plopping big giant wads of shat all over the UL campus and the press is stunned.

Why? Is this not exactly what UL has cultivated? They set the tone and everyone below is just following management's lead. From the top down they established a seedy underbelly culture of "working hard and playing hard" and being "Louisville Men" that clearly transmitted the message that if you didn't have a few hookers on the side then you weren't doing it right.

So why all the fuss? This is what they wanted. It's what they created. Purposefully. Why are they acting like they are stunned and that nobody knew what was going on when they are exactly the folks that created this culture to begin with?

If they fail to houseclean... to sterilize that putrid swamp and show Jurich and Pitino the door then they should just shut up and admit to being what they are. No need for all this hypocritical posturing when everyone knows that any decent sane man would have resigned in disgrace a long time ago before they dragged the entire campus down with them.

Walk into any jail anywhere and ask for a show of hands for the people that say they are guilty. It's funny that the people that are no longer affiliated with ul would say that "yes, it happened" but the people that still can benefit from their time there all say, to a man, that absolutely nothing happened.

Forget the evidence and testimony that corroborates it, let's take the word of the accused.

Luke Handjob is rolled out to talk to the UL captive media (93.9 FM the Ville radio). Says he never saw anything and hopes the story isn't true.

Also the CJ continues to put out the UL message but fails to investigate the other side of the story.

http://www.courier-journal.com/stor...alacious-allegations-against-u-of-l/73812124/

Well duh he's gonna say that..who would **** somebody named handcock anyway..And another way to look at this,there has been plenty of time to make calls to people involved with either threats and or promises..Never ever heard a crook tell the truth, they all go down with the same tune,"it was not me"..

Put me in the camp that thinks Pitino is guilty as sin here. He might not have known the nitty gritty about what McGee was doing, but I thoroughly believe he brought the guy back to Louisville (and funded the activities) so that he'd have a bag man he could trust but who was also expendable.

Pitino has been in the game long enough to know who he could trust and who he couldn't. He knew who would be willing to bend/break rules and who would squeal.
