August 21, 200917 yr Sporting News NCAA cleared Rose to play why does Memphis have to pay? As usual the "Voice Of reason". I cant get your link to work. Guessing that was something from Decoursey?
August 21, 200917 yr Because he's the captain of the ship....he should've known better upon the onset of the implications.
August 21, 200917 yr So are these things he supposedly did the night after the SAT all that bad? Are they rumors or what?
August 21, 200917 yr So are these things he supposedly did the night after the SAT all that bad? Are they rumors or what? Yeah, they at least look bad.
August 21, 200917 yr Because he's the captain of the ship....he should've known better upon the onset of the implications. According to the Sporting News article, Memphis didn't find out he was ruled ineligible until after the season was over.

August 21, 200917 yr Author Correct me if I am wrong but wasn't Pastner in charge of his recruiting? Ding, Ding, Ding!!
August 21, 200917 yr Ding, Ding, Ding!! I do agree with RP that the captain goes down with the ship but I don't think Pastner should get a free pass either if people wanna point fingers.
August 21, 200917 yr I realize that I'm being redundant, but why doesn't the NCAA go down with the ship?

August 22, 200917 yr According to the Sporting News article, Memphis didn't find out he was ruled ineligible until after the season was over. They were initially informed that it was under investigation in October of '07....this is from UK's beat writer Brent Dawson.
August 22, 200917 yr I realize that I'm being redundant, but why doesn't the NCAA go down with the ship? After hearing some reports, I think that they have the right explanation. If a guy plays the season while taking money, the season ends, all is well. Later someone says he took money, then he's ineligible retro-actively. IN this case Rose was deemed eligible, then investigated prior to the season, they played him, now he's in-eligible.

But the same wasn't true for Duke in '99 was it? (Not picking a fight because I know you have been a Duke fan but trying to see how what you just described isn't the same or very similar scenario?)
