I don't believe this. If true it's just a matter of time before Arizona is under investigation. Good friends who are UofA alum know that Miller is guilty.

EVERYONE knows he's guilty...except a lot of AZ fans, and apparently the AD and president. That's the only reason he still has a job.

Not so sure about that. There are millions of dollars in payments due Miller if this is not handled correctly. Administration and Trustees are being very careful.

That really says there is no NEW investigation.  The previous investigation is still ongoing?  probably. New focus on the old investigation?   maybe.

So when does Northern Arizona or Grand Canyon U or some other Arizona school go on probation for this?

I think C State hasn't met their Quota yet.

I mean all the NCAA has to do is slap them with "lack of institutional control" which seems pretty much a foregone conclusion, and he has to go, right?? Heck, If I were Arizona, I'd get out ahead of the mob, and fire him and cite whatever NCAA bylaw it is that says the Head Coach is responsible for knowing everything that goes on in his program. That's essentially what got Pitino fired.

Someone tell Nico Mannion we still have a scholarship open.

Nico will be long gone from Arizona before any actual punishments take effect.

I took a quick look at the AZ and KU boards; lot's of very angry fans who want the NCAA disbanded and some resigned to the probable outcome of post season bans and coaches being fired. I love the few that "know" their school did nothing wrong and don't understand why other posters are worried at all.

The only thing that has me concerned that AZ and KU MIGHT go unscathed, or at least get minor sanctions is the article says "Wilcox said only those schools involved in eligibility issues would be impacted".

Did either KU or ARZ have players with Eligibility issues?? I guess DeSousa played a few games the one year, right?? But his guardian took $2500. What's the worst that happens to them in that instance?? Maybe a loss of a scholarship. I don't see(would love it though) a postseason ban.

I sure as hell hope this isn't all tough talk by the NCAA and the hammer really comes down. Although, even if they do, doubtful anything really happens to the shcools this year, and in KU and ARZ's case I think that's what their fans want to avoid the most because they see their teams as legit national title contenders. At least KU does.

I mean, Ayton should've been ineligible based on what we know. Same for Alkins & Trier. I'm not sure Kansas will be the other. They reinstated De Sousa and Preston never played. Still seems like Auburn, LSU, Louisville, & Oregon are likely to be named. Maybe the Cards are the other "major program" and NC State gets caught up.

Where they may nail Kansas is on Self. Asking and directing for bribes to players. No-one officially ineligible, but major, major violations for Kansas.

[MU82]

I dunno.

I'll believe one of these big-time coaches will be harshly punished when I see it.

But that was never submitted as evidence in the trial(s), so the NCAA can't use that.

[Loose Cannon]

I 'ii  believe it when it happens.  I'm in Tark's camp on this, maybe C-State has to duck, but the Golden Goose wouldn't be bruised maybe it's feathers will be ruffled a little.

Hope I'm wrong.

Good catch, chicos.

I think Pitino might still be there if he didn't have so much other baggage, but he certainly was punished for his role in this scandal.

Now let's see who else ... maybe even somebody who didn't hire hookers for his players.

[jesmu84]

Will Wade with another high quality recruit to commit.

Is being sent to Minnesota now considered a punishment?
