Bribery Scandal - FBI Probe - Book Richardson Involved

Re: Bribery Scandal - FBI Probe - Book Richardson Involved
Book had no moral compass at all on anything. It was about Book. Did you read in the article that his current relationship is the longest he was faithful in his life? He was married what 20+ years? I am not sure he was faithful in prison unless it benefitted him. POS.

So that's what that cock holster looks like.

Rumors abound that the IARP is being disbanded and all cases will be dismissed.

Will that give the NCAA an open invitation to levy any punishment they want now?
Re: Bribery Scandal - FBI Probe - Book Richardson Involved
I doubt that. I think it means it’s all done, just like the NCAA

Not that they could have known this would happen, but we should have followed the UNC playbook and just denied and stalled until everyone got bored and gave up.

Re: Bribery Scandal - FBI Probe - Book Richardson Involved
So, how many $$millions were paid to the IARP members and their investigators over the past 2-3 years or so? With absolutly NO results, reports, or decisions. Sounds like the NCAA was just padding their buddies' bank accounts.
The whole thing really smells fishy.

Also, how much did we pay lawyers and AD man hours into this? Has to be a significant amount
Re: Bribery Scandal - FBI Probe - Book Richardson Involved
In the past the two things that got schools in trouble were one, paying players and two, paying someone to get them eligible. Now you can basically go both legally. This whole thing was a waste of time and ruined Books and Phelps career and tarnished Millers.

Re: Bribery Scandal - FBI Probe - Book Richardson Involved
I would like to know what the schools that already have had penalties for the scandal handed down to them by the NCAA think about this...
...just another reason why the NCAA will eventually be disbanded themselves. If this information is true, it will just entice cheating schools to continue.
In fact - we may now see the Rat Un-Retire and return to Duke now that he is in the clear.

Re: Bribery Scandal - FBI Probe - Book Richardson Involved
The way they are going to justify dropping everything is the guideline that it should affect the players that were there not the current ones. Don't know if this was still affecting any recruiting but if it was this might be a small lift.

In their eyes we should have got the death penalty. Fuck them. Hope Vitale drops dead his first game back.Catintheheat wrote: Tue Aug 23, 2022 9:32 amLucky?

That was only done so Sean Miller would not have a successful run in the tourney and would be harder to fire.Catintheheat wrote: Tue Aug 23, 2022 9:32 am Lucky? We sat out of the NCAA tourney for one year. We didn't need to do that.

So if they dismantle the IARP does that mean we get out of this Scott free?

Re: Bribery Scandal - FBI Probe - Book Richardson Involved
Well if you consider the recruiting damage, reputational damage, cost, losing our coach as free then yes we got off free.
Re: Bribery Scandal - FBI Probe - Book Richardson Involved
And Robbins and Heeke could've prevented a lot of that if they didn't have a vendetta against Miller.

In the end, it's just unlikely the NCAA will undermine its own business interests.

Re: Bribery Scandal - FBI Probe - Book Richardson Involved
There remains no timeline on when the final four schools will see their cases come to a close, but NCAA Vice President of Hearing Operations, Derrick Crawford, told the media on a call Tuesday that the four — Louisville, Arizona, and LSU — are on track to be resolved in “late spring, early summer of 2023.” Louisville and Arizona have completed their hearings while Kansas and LSU have not, suggesting they may be ahead in the queue.

Ducking any responsibility. Miss one game that is not a cake walk. We will see if the NCAA has any balls left.

That is laughable compared to what we did. Typical Kansas.
That's another reason I want to move to the B12. I want to kick their smug ass up and down the court.
