The true worst part of all this: Forde and Thamel will feel important forever because of this.

While I agree with you, in reality, these two are probably not even important to their pets past the reason they bring pets food. These two are the epitome of hack journalism and lacking journalistic integrity.

either way it looks like Bam and Knox took money....Knox needs to get the *** off the team and never return to this state if true. Mfer couldn't wait till freaking july 2018? I find it hard to believe that Kevin Knox NEEDED money that bad....I call bullcrap.
I don't know about the Bam situation, but I'd ease up a tad on Knox. He's listed as meeting with or having meals with Dawkins. Doesn't even say that he received anything. IMO these players were listed for dramatic Yahoo effect.

I don't much care what other schools are guilty of. We need to own up and act like men instead of trying to do the very things many of us have thrown barbs at schools like Louisville and North Carolina for doing the past several years. That crap rings pretty hollow.

Specify for me what you'd like for UK or any of these schools to own up to.

WE didn't do ****, a real fan wouldn't be comparing this to on campus stripper parties, coaches on tape paying for recruits and academic fraud.

Marcus Camby situation all over again. Agents and hanger on-ers have destroyed college sports.
True, but that was while he was in college. I think this is saying while they were in high school. What does the NCAA think, we can put tracer drones on every potential high school recruit and watch their every action BEFORE they get to UK? No.

WTF is wrong with you?

It isnt against the rules to meet with an agent and he supposedly only had lunch...

You look like an idiot with this kind of statement.

That would obviously require us to first know the outcome of the investigation. Like I said, whatever our part in it may be, handle it get it over with and move forward. Many on here want to throw crap at the other schools and then hypocritically do the exact same stuff their fans did that so many made fun of. If our guys end up exonerated then awesome, reopen the floodgates. Until then, the glass houses parable comes to mind.

A real intelligent fan would realize these arent mutually exclusice and that it's not black and white but shades of grey; and that to whatever degree of severity the transgressions may be so too will the punishment. In short, wtf does it matter what they did v what we did. None of it is right. Because theirs is more severe you feel justified throwing crap while we ourselves don't have a clean house? Real classy.

There isn’t one allegation UK did anything wrong. Zero. Nada. On the other hand, UL coaches paid whores to screw to recruits and then negotiated $100,000 payments to recruits. If you don’t see the difference between the two situations, I don’t know what to say.

Bam could have taken money after the season ended. Same with Noel. There's no way to know from that document, if it's even true / real.

Even if it's all real and worse case scenario comes true, we get off unscathed compared to what some other schools will have to endure.

Hope and pray we don't in up on probation. The bam situation has me worried, knox ordeal is nothing.

So will Knox be ineligible for the rest of the season?
Probably in the eyes of UK, but not the NCAA. These papers are in the hands of the FBI. The FBI has zero obligation to turn these over to the NCAA and the NCAA will not want the papers.

New rules are coming, and I can see the NCAA trying to do something in concert with the NBA to bring penalties at the NBA level on rouge agents, but the writer and their source in the FBI may be in more trouble than the schools and players.

ASM is known to be SUPER tight with Self and KU players.

How in the hell are there not a bunch of KU guys included in this?

I guess you just glossed over where I said "WHATEVER OUR PART IN IT MAY BE"

It will be several years before this info is made available to the NCAA and they complete investigations into all this. The scope is so large and involves so many programs, I wouldn't be surprised if the NCAA just changed some of their rules between now and then so that none of this is a big deal and they just make it go away.

Not concerned about the Knox one. Noel was almost for sure after the season. BAM is only one to be worried about, and that one could have been after the season. If those 2 were after they left and there is nothing more to the Knox situation, then there are no violations or cheating whatsoever.
