NCAA recent investigations

[Loose Cannon]

The classes weren't bogus or fake classes, they did require a lengthy research paper and were open to all students with more non athletes enrolled than athletes.

Are these classes still offered today by UNC?

Former MU assistant...

@GoodmanHoops: Arizona assistant Mark Phelps has been placed on administrative leave by the school. Source close to situation told @WatchStadium they believe this is school building its case in potentially make a move with head coach Sean Miller as NCAA begins its investigation. https://twitter.com/GoodmanHoops/status/1093330362934145024/photo/1

"Embattled" Sean Miller feeling the pressure at Arizona!! Wonder what Nico Mannion would do if Sean got canned or resigned....

Seems unlikely Miller is coaching there next year.

Lol.  I should have read it twice instead of clicking the twitter link and the responding. 

[Loose Cannon]

No.

  Thanks, guess it was too close to the edge to continue.

Both the professor and his assistant were let go so that particular class no longer exists. The AFAM program, had  always been one of the more highly regarded in the country and still is today.

It's almost certainly Shariff O'Neal. Phelps helped him sign up for a fake online class and may have assisted in the work. Since it's Shaq's kid I doubt there was a money issue, but who the hell knows these days.

not so sure-they(sean m. et.al.) have a few layers around him taking the body blows and going down.

      sean will come out with some news conference and talk about not knowing about any of this until he read it in the newspaper just like all of us .  the pitino defense.  and then go on to say that this has no place in amateur, student athletic sports programs and if this could prevent just one more assistant coach and/or program from going rogue...

Tsk, tsk Creighton.

In a superseding indictment filed this afternoon, federal prosecutors allege Christian Dawkins paid bribes to unnamed assistant coaches at  schools located in Nebraska and Texas.

Dan Wetzel @DanWetzel
Sources say the two schools are Creighton and TCU

Just saw this. Wow ... a head coach caught on a wire ... this is the biggest one yet, no?

Gotta come down hard on LSU and Creighton for the problems at Kansas and Zona

[WhiteTrash]

I'm shocked at LSU taking the ethical and high road.  I wrongfully assumed an SEC school would take the Arizona and Kansas route and deny till the end. Kudos to LSU.

I just met with a good friend and KU supporter who conceded that Self is dirty. He said he will be sad to see him go but he has to.

[MU82]

Gotta come down hard on LSU and Creighton for the problems at Kansas and Zona

Absolutely not absolving KU and AU, but the LSU head coach was caught on a wire directly talking about paying off a player. Gotta come down hard on him regardless of what happens with KU and AU, no?

[jesmu84]

Why suspend the coach and not, if the story is true, the ineligible player?
