The same will go for Knox. The delay for UK is the Bam situation.

Dook has released a statement saying "if they happen to be guilty of a violation, they are not really guilty of a violation and have no further comment on the matter".

UK press release:

“A UK student-athlete was identified in a Yahoo! Sports report this morning about men’s college basketball. Duke immediately reviewed the matter and, based on the available information, determined there are no eligibility issues related to today’s report. Duke contacted the NCAA and pledged to continue to work collaboratively with the NCAA and the Atlantic Coast Conference. Based upon Duke's investigation, UK contacted the NCAA and pledged to continue to work collaboratively with the NCAA and the Southeastern Conference. Duke says it has an uncompromising commitment to compliance in athletics which has not, and will not, change. UK says, 'us too! We with them'”

I cant believe it took them so long to clear him, I mean they did clear three kids taking two years of class work in one summer in what about two weeks ? You knew Rat Face and Pork Belly would rubber stamp this and move along !

I think the author at KSR got this right. Forde and Thamel included Carter and Knox and the others who did not receive money (according to the documents) for sensation.

I don't know what schools did what but obviously a lot of the top players had their hands out. Which is pretty terrible. The schools should have reported them to the fBI. If all the top players care about is money, let them turn pro as high school juniors (bagley) and seniors

Agree with this. I know it's Duke and we all want to poke fun, but carter and Knox should have never been included in the conversation.

Of course that’s all the NCAA needs to hear from their favorite son. Moving along.

Not sure how all this will turn out, but if North Carolina has taught us anything, fight the b@stards(NCAA). Hopefully, Capilouto has some balls and doesn't rollover like Roselle. The way this is starting to play out, of the blue bloods, just hope we don't get caught holding the bag.

I realize making fun of Duke is a good time but that ledger shows where the agent claims he went to lunch with Carter. How does anyone know that happened with Carter or Knox? It also doesn't show that the agent paid for Carter or Knox, it just claims an amount. Furthermore, he could have gone to lunch with an associate or coach or God knows who and simply justified it by writing their names down. That ledger has very little substance to it.

I'm sure Duke didn't actually do anything.

NCAA called K and apologized that one of his grade A student athletes was named, then emailed over the press release that they had already written. Then, as a show of good faith, sent K three Clearinghouse Notices with blanks on the name lines - for future grade A student athletes that may need to be cleared quickly.

All jokes aside, this does make me feel better about Knox as it appears his and Carter’s situation were similar. Let the Bam stuff play out but at least we can turn our focus back to this season without worrying about the other shoe to drop on Knox.
