Elijah Johnson and I think Josh Jackson's mom. Lovely. Not that I give a shit. Especially with hard proof of so many other top programs doing the same thing.

Does unc have to vacate last year's title?

Honestly, it's great for me. Hope nobody takes seriously any talk of amateurism ever again.

Also, it finally has paid off that the Gophers have been shit for 2 decades, we had no players worth paying.

I thought for sure the Buckeyes would have been there.

This wasnt the schools though.

This was a shady agent giving kids stuff in exchange for possible shoe deals and client relationships.

I am not sure how any of these schools can stop it other than 24/7 lockdowns in the dorms.

If some outside force gives the players money, there is literally nothing a school can do.

There is another 30 or so schools coming down as well from other agencies. This was just one agency.

Maybe 80% of the entire POWER 5 will be ensnared.

The NCAA tourney final in the year 2019 will be Towson State versus Northern Arizona by default.

That's how I see it. Unless it can be proven that the coaches or school knee about the payments, how can they be at fault?

Hmm. Villanova clearly has three players mentioned on this sheet (an international bank statement?). One who is an NBA All-Star.

But they have not been named in any of the reports as schools facing violations. Wonder what it all means. Kind of.

And if Duke, UNC, Arizona, Kentucky are involved that's all of college basketball basically. Lol.

Amateurism is a lie.

Color me *shocked* that Pat Forde-bylined report makes sure Duke is one of the first schools mentioned, even though the Carter nugget is among the least consequential allegations. $106 for dinner with Carter's Mom? I have a feeling that most of these aIIegations are simpIy pay the money back and we're good to go!

Some of the players on that list didn't even go to college...
