Bear Down Wildcats

TJATUA

Just gonna say that the media's many screw ups w/r/t this situation is enough punishment. Arizona has been slandered, fairly and unfairly, for two years now and had been singled out largely due to the Schalbach garbage.

There's justification for zero or a minor NCAA infraction here. Just saying.

Who did he "admit" to paying?

And even more, who received money?

Edit: The fact he edited his Twitter profile which used to say "University of Arizona guard" probably ain't a good sign.

Same with his Instagram account.

He gone.

TJATUA

Koloko is on campus, so the thinking that he was being purged from the recruiting class is done.

It only leaves one viable option and that’s B-Will, unless Dylan Smith has a change of heart and wants to leave.

TJATUA

Jesus, why can’t we catch a break? I just want to go a week without hearing about Arizona and the FBI.

TJATUA

The fact that ESPN continues to let Schlabach even near this story anymore is just dumb.

Yeah, that's me.

Logistically, this makes zero sense, but because some idiots without the ability to read more than one sentence are going to look at it and say, "See? Arizona paid its players." Ugh.

Apparently, Keyshawn Jr is still not with the team and Young Jr is still suspended. Anyone have any intel as to what’s going on in these two situations?

He's been trolling harder than ever on ASFN. It's really annoying and borderline impossible to have a conversation on the UofA board

I don't see what jobs are better or similar than Arizona that would make him leaving worth it. He's never sniffing UNC, Ohio St is closed, Maryland? UConn? He's not an NBA guy either so he can't pull a Pete Caroll. Unless he wants go mid major again. Wouldn't surprise me if he went NBA though to av...

It's all about the NCAA's response time and how quickly the levels can get below whatever the threshold is.

Double yikes There’s a general expectation that this information will be released. It could come in trial, pre-trial motions or released by the government at some point. (No one is certain if they’ve agreed to eventually give it to the NCAA if it doesn’t go public.) So how bad could be it? In terms...

Defensively? Jeezus he's probably the worst on the team. Barcello gives him a run for the money. Don't expect AB to be around next year at all. Think he realized that playing on an elite team the game is just too fast for him. Miller has made his feelings quite public about Barcello not progressing...

Seems incredibly coincidental that in the last five or so days, the coaches went from completely sedentary to mass offering and visiting recruits. Even if this doesn't impact UofA one way or another, it seems as if the coaches feel a lot more comfortable in their standing in the investigation than t...

TJATUA

Just so frustrated that this has completely stalled our recruiting. I get that there's some apprehension to sign w/ Arizona, but literally, we're getting no attention save for Williams and O'Neal, who've been committed for some time. At this moment, with how the investigation has transpired, other s...

I think after the UofA's investigation has been completed, they will probably come up with a loss of a couple of scholarships and a one-year ban of postseason play. The NCAA will approve the penalties and we can all move on. Your assistant coach(es) paid two current players on roster and Quinerly. ...

I work directly with Div 1 men's basketball players, and my time gets eaten doing things required to maintain my Big 10 institution's compliance with the NCAA. From my perspective, what happened at UNC was unconscionable. They got caught manufacturing fake classes to give out fake degrees at an acc...

Is that Jude La Cava? He said something along the lines of "we'll know something w/in 24-48 hours."

BTW---there was practice today and Miller was in attendance, so if Miller is being let go, it's news to him.

TJATUA

If Miller was tipped off by the FBI well before Tuesday and he let Book hang himself, wouldn't it have been more beneficial to the program to fire Book on the spot? maybe, but at that point it was already in the hands of the FBI and who knows what the dialogue was there and/or what the FEDS wanted ...

Pasternak seems like he's too smart to do this type of payments. He'd simply give money instead of taking bribe money for pushing kids to sports agents/financial advisors.

When Ace said he was cleared, he meant that he's became a born again Christian and that his conscience is now clear.

If it truly is academics, why would Miller publicly admonish Chance Comanche for his academic standing while keeping Trier's situation under wraps?

That would mean a decision hasn't been reached by the ncaa which is good. Appeals are harder to win than initial decisions. Initial decisions are easy when it's simply pass or fail and that's already been decided at this point. In other words, he failed and won't be playing in the exhibition game?
