That took a little longer than It should have

NC State's old coach is linked to direct payments to players.

Judge rules against the NCAA in an anti-trust lawsuit. It's not the win the plaintiffs wanted though. The judge says the players should get more compensation in the form of more education.

So what happens to the 3 coaches tied so far (Assuming the allegations are true): 5 year ban from coaching? Permanent ban from coaching? At the moment, I'd say it's hard to punish the schools themselves. Aside from forfeiting games with those players, maybe?

LSU fans boo + curse their AD for benching Wade + Smart

LSU fans are delusional. Their program is about to get drilled and they're oblivious.

So that OSU game was almost amazing

Almost indeed.

They're just not a well built team. Half Matta's recruits and half Holtman's. Next year should be better with most of Matta's guys gone.

UPenn coach took bribe to get a kid into college. So that's kinda the opposite of the other recruiting scandals?

Former Penn basketball coach Jerome Allen testified during a federal criminal trial on Friday that he accepted roughly $300,000 in bribes from a Florida businessman to help get the man's son into the Ivy League school using a basketball priority slot.

Allen, now an assistant coach with the Boston Celtics, pleaded guilty in October to accepting an $18,000 bribe from the man in 2014.

The $300,000 total wasn't disclosed until Allen testified during the $450 million Medicare and Medicaid fraud case involving Philip Esformes, a Miami nursing home mogul.

Feds busting a lot of coaches and others in schemes to get people admitted to college.

CNN covering it from the celebrity side.

Yale, Stanford, USC, Wake Forest, Georgetown are among the schools listed.

Ho ly fuck

Once the student was admitted to Yale, Singer mailed Meredith a check for $400,000 in January 2018.

In the spring and summer of 2018, the student's relatives paid Singer about $1.2 million in multiple installments, including $900,000 paid to the nonprofit.

This is a little weird, as it wouldn't appear to be an NCAA thing, since they are not student-athletes, but they are member institutions... Enjoy jail, fuckers.

Wade believes LSU should allow him to keep coaching.

This is either supreme arrogance or he just wants to be able to showcase his coaching skills so he can try to get a job in the NBA.

Yeah, that's a negative, ghost rider.

Good luck coaching in the NCAA again.

You never know, they may be in a play-in game, which should be competitive
