NCAA recent investigations

[Pakuni]

Is this where we find out how much Grimes got to go to Kansas?

Let's just hope we don't find out adidas had to outbid Jordan Brand.

Nope.

Tell me where I'm wrong.

[TedBaxter]

This may have been mentioned previously on this board.

Jim Gatto, the Adidas representative, is the son of long time high school coach Jim Gatto Sr. who coached former Marquette player Dwayne Johnson at Mater Christi High School in Astoria, NY.

What keefe said is not inconsistent with the timeline of what you are stating.  He is 100% right that the BCS holds the power and that they *could* break off from the NCAA.  I doubt that will happen because they rest of the organization KNOWS the BCS hold most of the cards.

And the players don't need to be paid by the school.  They can be paid by outside sources.

Who is keefe?

The BCS may hold the football power, but they don't hold all the power considering where the money is coming from for the NCAA.  Many things could happen, that is endless in possibilities.

Well, hello Creighton!

Adam Zagoria @AdamZagoria
Brian Bowen Sr. just said in federal court he was offered but did not accept money and benefits from Arizona, Oklahoma State, Texas Creighton And Oregon

Jeff Borzello @jeffborzello
Brian Bowen Sr. told the jury today that Christian Dawkins conveyed the following offers for Brian Bowen Jr. to commit:
• Arizona: $50,000
• Oklahoma State: $150,000, $8000 for a car, money for a house
• Texas: "help me with housing"
• Creighton: $100,000 and a "good job"

not just a good job, a "lucrative job."

Also, Bowen Sr. said he did not recall discussing Oregon with Dawkins, so maybe the Ducks are in the clear.

DePaul assistant Shane Heriman paying $2k/month to get the kid to his when Heriman coached there.

And this:  "Bowen Sr. said Dawkins told him an original offer of $60,000 to $80,000 from Adidas to attend Louisville was increased to $100,000 because that is how much Billy Preston got to go to Kansas."

We all know this has been going on for years. It took the shoe companies getting involved to blow it into the open.  TC used to talk about some of the ridiculous demands kids, parents and AAU coaches would make and ask for.  Thankfully in TC and Wojo we've had two class coaches who refused to be dragged into that cesspool over the last 20 years.

Who were these AAU blue chippers that MU signed who were in the gap in the timeline?

I personally don't think there is either smoke or fire there. Was mostly wondering if his omission was intentional.

However, it's possible to be bad at cheating but still get implicated -- just ask DePaul.

[jesmu84]

Wow.

If any of the things that are coming out can be proven, and also proved to have actually followed through in prior recruits/players, how can the NCAA be respected ever?

Also, I sincerely am hoping there aren't any stories involving Marquette. I don't believe Wojo or Crean seem like the type. Buzz, I could see a bit more.

But I also didn't thing Creighton would be involved either. So who knows

unfortunately yes, there is.

And it's not just AAU blue chippers who ask for or get money/benefits.

I will add this one to the over column in Chicos vs. Keefe persona contest.

Let's just say that there's a reason certain malcontents were not kicked off the team by Buzz when they should have been.....
