NCAA Coaches: Bribing Players

If the NCAA wants to pursue this it seems pretty simple. If a kid is seriously interested in Arizona there was likely a discussion about money. Look at other schools that same kid was interested in - or in particular committed to - and follow the money.

Unless that other school is Dook.

So Kansas suffered "damages" of over $100K as a result of Adidas fraudulently paying their players. Stands to reason that a true victim like KU would immediately sever business ties with those fraudsters from Adidas. Well done, KU. Oh wait ...
This company caused damages to our brand, so of course we'll continue doing business with them.


Can't turn down $200M.

Here's a question.

If you're cheating, and everyone knows you're cheating, including the NCAA overseers... and there are no repercussions or punishments, is it still even cheating?

The NCAA needs to figure out how they want to approach this, they need to figure it out quickly, and they need to be extremely consistent about it. Otherwise, I don't know why all schools wouldn't just start paying for recruits through middle men. How you can adhere to a standard that doesn't actually exist?

So, yeah, fuck the NCAA already. I've been one of their biggest proponents because I know that if there is no entity to surveille and prevent this sort of shady shit, then it'll all be to the highest bidders. But the NCAA is so fucking Jekyll and Hyde about shit, allowing blatant shit go unpunished or letting schools basically tell them to fuck off, while pounding others for the most mundane shit. I say fuck it, we're taking back our 2010 vacated wins and B1G title. Fuck 'em.

It's never going to be as obvious as it is now and the NCAA is still holding their collective dicks. If you're a coach like Holt, you'd be only handicapping yourself at this point not playing the game.
