"College hoops corruption case poised to take down Hall of Fame coaches, top programs, lottery picks"

"A source who has been briefed on the case laughed: “You might see Tennessee-Chattanooga as a No. 2 seed.”

Quoting in detail the erudite sports reporter Mr. Vautour: "Yikes"

"Jack didn’t have any envy in him," Calipari said. "He was the greatest coach to ever coach here."

I think you posted the wrong link. This one's about a Trump campaign adviser who's in the Mueller investigation.

I am so ready. Bring it on. Keep ignoring warnings about fucked up kids posting warnings about school shooting fantasies and buying assault rifles with the same security as buying a Whopper Jr., but yes, please keep focusing on college basketball coaches and their recruiting violations. Whatever. This scandal will get 100x the publicity of just yet another school shooting.

Cage, completely agree that this deserves its own thread, this can change the future of college basketball. No doubt about it. Potion was only the beginning.

If this article isn't just hyperbole then could level the playing field for a year or two. Wonder how hard the top money programs will work to keep the details out of the newspapers and instead offer up a program like Cleveland State as the ultimate bad actor.

Remember Cal's two non P5 teams got shafted while schools like UNC got nothing. What are the odds that this blows up so big that they take their balls and go form a new entity for athletics?

The NCAA and FBI should also be focusing more on Michigan State than any other school at the moment.

I really don’t want to be the one to bring this up but someone has to. Yahoo obtained copies of documents showing specific players who received payments from the agent involved in this case. You’ll see a familiar name in the mix

Yikes. Looking closely at the spreadsheet, I found that very familiar name. Not good.

Yup was just going to say the same thing 02. Chaz listed right smack on the bottom spreadsheet. I hope this doesn’t affect UMass but when his name is one of 25 that’s not good. Friggen typical.

Can't wait to get more details on that... Was the loan give while he was in school? Ugh.

Disappointing to see us associated in any way.

Fuck me running! What are the possible consequences of this major malfunction? The kid is gone, the coach is gone; so punish the school?

Someone is listed as "TJ Grazznola"..........I'm assuming this is "TJ Gassnola" who has ties to New England AAU/Kellogg right?
