I bet the ACC is thrilled with bringing in UL. It's been one corruption and cheating story after another.

I bet there is some fun stuff to uncover in Skal Labissiere's recruitment to UK if someone with subpoena power was inclined to look.

There really isn't. In reading the Washington Post story, a few things are immediately clear:
1. More than one coach was involved.
2. This happened more than once (at least once successfully).
3. One of the coaches in question acknowledged that they'd have to be careful due to the program's current suspension.
4. Much of this was caught on video and is undeniable.
If the death penalty still exists, it has to be applicable here.
Quote:The alleged conspirators are accused in the indictment of paying one recruit, described as an all-American, $100,000 to attend the university in Kentucky, with the payments designed to be concealed from both the school and the NCAA. The scheme was set in motion in May, after the player announced that he was looking at other schools. In June, after the alleged bribery scheme kicked in, the player announced his attention to attend the school in Kentucky, a decision that was regarded as a surprise. The payments were made at the request of “at least one coach” on that school’s staff, according to the charging documents. Via tapped cellphone conversations heard by the FBI, the defendants also are accused of money laundering in an attempt to cover up the source of the payments.
The charging documents also allege that the defendants and an unnamed assistant coach from the Kentucky school devised a plan to pay another recruit, this one from the high school class of 2019, at a meeting in a Las Vegas hotel room that was surreptitiously videotaped by the FBI. The assistant coach from the Kentucky school was recorded as saying the scheme would have to be “low key” because the program already was on NCAA probation. The coach also was recorded giving Augustine, the AAU official, an envelope containing $12,700 in cash, which Dawkins said “will take care of July, of August.” The scheme was patterned after the one used for the other recruit, according to the charging document.

I wonder if the loophole will be the fact that "it was designed to be concealed from the school" that will allow the schools and head coaches to get off without punishment from the NCAA.

That's a pretty substantial rumor. Any chance you could forward the information you have to the FBI? I would certainly appreciate it.

It might go back to Frank Martin? But I'm not so sure it would go back all the way to K-State.

It's a shame that these colleges have so much money and it's sad because the kids including mine are in such large debt and it hurts us and the economy

RE: OT: FBI has arrested several NCAA basketball assistant coaches
I'm wondering if this scandal might go up to the administrative levels of the NCAA itself.
Anyone hear the hum of paper shredders or disk wipers?
