NCAA Basketball 17-18 Discussion. Fake Classes Win Championships Edition

At least Louisville still has this going on for them...

Louisville must vacate the 2013 NCAA title.

And UNC gets.........?????????

How does UNC not vacate anything with the fake classes they had for athletes?

All those years of UL fans talking about how UK should hang banners up with velcro under Calipari and now they're losing a national title.
They should send us their 2012 Final Four banner too.
Where you at, @MetalMayhem2?

Those classes were for everyone, not just basketball players.

Hah, the trophy is already gone too.

They damn well better take down that 2012 Final Four banner too.

Edit: And it's gone. Send it us, dammit!

Agent's detailed records show exactly how much players' families were paid, report says

“There are spreadsheets detailing who got paid, how much they got paid and how much more they were planning to pay,” a source told Yahoo Sports. “The feds got everything they wanted and much more. Don’t think it will only be players who ended up signing with ASM (Sports firm) that got paid. Those spreadsheets cast a wide net throughout college basketball. If your school produced a first-round pick in the past three years, be worried.”

Looks like we're safe.

Cincinnati is beating up on UConn. It's on ESPN.

Dark, dark days ahead for Arizona? Their best player just popped for Pride vitamins again.

I love how this is conveniently coming out around the only time of the year when people start giving a shit about CBB. Fuck It! Bring it all down

Exclusive: Federal documents detail sweeping potential NCAA violations involving high-profile players, schools

There’s potential impermissible benefits and preferential treatment for players and families of players at Duke, North Carolina, Texas, Kentucky, Michigan State, USC, Alabama and a host of other schools. The documents link some of the sport’s biggest current stars – Michigan State’s Miles Bridges, Alabama’s Collin Sexton and Duke’s Wendell Carter – to specific potential extra benefits for either the athletes or their family members. The amounts tied to players in the case range from basic meals to tens of thousands of dollars.

Calipari up to his old tricks. Of course he will have "plausible deniability" like he did at UMass and Memphis before leaving the program hit with sanctions.

A listing that refers to “BAM” for $12,000 is later identified in the documents as Edrice “Bam” Adebayo, who would go on to play at Kentucky in 2016-17. He did not sign with ASM. There’s a later reference to Adebayo that says he received $36,500. “Bad loan,” reads the document.

That same agent who filtered loan money to Bam Adebayo had a lunch meeting with current UK player Kevin Knox and had meetings with/ or sent money to a shit ton of players from different named programs.

What a shitshow

Lets not pretend we didn't all know for a fact this shit went on. Everyone knew, and honestly no one cared. And really, I don't think people care now. Hopefully this just gets things fixed so these things don't have to be so secretive.

@Losfer Words

This year has been so strange. I have no idea what the future holds. This season has been pretty dark already and now this. We have probably the most talented freshman (possibly player regardless of year) we have ever had in Deandre Ayton but the team has never felt right. At least Bobby Hurely has yet to beat us in his lifetime as a player or a coach...FBI/NCAA will never take that away.
