FBI NCAA Bball probe

Recommended Posts

Think this is going to get UGLY.

Louisville looks to be sinking

Nc state is Adidas and has staff linked to Slick Rick.

Alabama is being rumored to get looked into next. 

 

Also apparently FBI is going to Nike now and rumored to under armour  next.

Duke should be sweating.  You never saw K recruit or get any high top 5 guys.  High school all Americans but just not the 1 and done guys.  Until Capel came in, after Capel just left Oklahoma in a mess with the NCAA.

And you'd have to think they are going to look at Kentucky.  They have all but held up a sign saying they are corrupt.  

 

Again this could get UGLY and not sure how the NCAA will even fair in all of this with being looked at no supervision over any of this

I disagree with you on the Kentucky thing. If you think about it, Calipari probably has the most transparent program out there. He willingly and freely admits he's ok with one and done, he's just trying to win championships, and hides nothing about it. Now, a lot of purists have a problem with that, and I think a lot of people allow their personal feelings to cloud their vision and they see corruption when, in reality, Calipari is using the system as it's set up and taking advantage of its flaws. 

And if anyone believes this is just an Adidas issue, they're sadly mistaken. Won't be long until Under Armour, Nike and everyone else is dragged into this mess.

this has been going on for decades. People paying handlers to steer the kid to a certain program. Just like schools having easy classes to help keep athletes in academic good standing. I find the public outrage hilarious. People are getting a glimpse on how the sausage is made and big surprise they don't like it!

this is centered around Addidas.  I believe UK is Nike.  I suspect there are similar investigations going on around Nike, UA, etc.

I thought I saw they sent out subpoenas for Nike as well.  This is going to bring down a lot of people and programs.  Hopefully this speeds up the end of this faux amateurism.

The youth basketball developmental program at Nike was raided by the feds. No idea what could come of that.

    • It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed. 
    • I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
