My productivity level for today is going to go down a little now.

 

And I say that not because I get great joy out of UL getting in trouble. Just a huge story in something I love following more than anything.

 

This is bad.

This could be death penalty for Cards...and no I'm not happy about that.

USC, Auburn, Oklahoma State and Arizona are not Adidas schools. What's the connection there?

[RoyalWildcat]

I think we can all agree that we expected something like this to happen eventually, BUT everyone except for UK fans expected John Calipari to be the main man behind it. It's great to see him and the University of Ky not associated with any of this.

From my understanding, at least in Auburn's case, Person was accepting money to steer players to specific financial advisors/agents.

Wow... As a UK fan, I’m glad it’s not us, but let’s not celebrate UL’s demise. The program may never fully recover.

Again, we should wait for all the facts to come out.

 

I'm not implying that UK is involved but nothing is out of the question at this point.

Completely agree. Matt Jones, "this is better than Christmas".

 

Totally disagree. I like when UL is good. Better exposure for the state and more fun for our rivalry. I don't want UL to beat the Cats but things are better when they are good.

 

This is so bad.

Really, this can't be much of a shock, is it? Not talking about the schools involved, just the fact that a shoe company is pulling the strings. We all knew this, but this sheds more of a light into how it may work.

 

Still waiting for more details.

Louisville is University 6....
