So for the kids keeping score at home...does anyone have a complete list of the programs and coaches implicated in this?

[Wireman]

I think a complete list is unknown at this time. There will be more.

A lot of people getting their UK Voodoo dolls out and praying to their Pagan Gods that UK can somehow be implicated in something, anything...the desperation is hilarious. Some of the Facebook meltdowns are EPIC!

 

If UK is cheating they deserve what ever they get, but for Cardinal fans to call UK out for anything after the past three years is pure comedy :lol2::lol2::lol2:

 

I agree, it's clear that some are hoping the entire NCAA is implicated in this (not just Kentucky) due to the fact that UL essentially threw that poo splatter that @Jim Schue mentioned right back at the NCAA. The more schools that are implicated, the better things fall for UL. At the moment, UL is essentially, well I won't say the word, I'll let everyone use their imagination. It's one thing to be dead center in another scandal, but they don't even have a president to even hire an athletic director, so that they can hire a coach, it's pretty sad that that's where UL is as a Univeristy at the moment. That said, the anti UK rhetoric does make me laugh a bit, while keeping my fingers crossed.

If this report is true don't see how Coach Pitino will have grounds to fight to get the rest of his money for the UofL. Here is the link to to the report:

 

Report: Pitino played role in funneling money to top recruit

So back about 5 years ago I was at a July open period event and a coach I had some familiarity with left his event packet and a folder a couple chairs over. The next game I needed to watch was on the same court so I was in the same spot for a while. When the 2nd game ended the coach still hadn't come back to his spot so I picked up the packet and folder and went to deliver it to another assistant that was on the same staff. The 2nd coach flat out refused to even put his fingerprints on the folder I was trying to return. Quick reality in to dealing with staff relationships where I knew their guys a little bit, but didn't have a regular interaction with. The GSD guy was on his own island. And apparently for good reason...

Please don't view my rhetoric as coming from a partisan standpoint. I made my peace with UofL being an outlaw program a long time back. Others would be wise to do the same with their fave. I'm simply lashing out at a system that has persisted forever, and grew worse once more money got involved.

Hearing more indictments are coming in college hoops. Expected to happen within the next two weeks, I'm told.
