So yesterday's testimony was pretty damning for a bunch of schools. It was provided by Bruce Bowen, Sr. 4 schools mentioned by name in offering money for his son, OSU among them. Arizona was another. Louisville of course got his commitment and apparently Pitino knew about it. I can't see how these schools escape without 4-5 years probation, 12 lost scholarships over that period. Louisville will be lucky to escape without the death penalty. 2 major infractions within a 2-3 year period including Hookergate and this. This is pretty similar stuff to what SMU was doing in football in the 80s.
I also found it interesting that Creighton offered up $100k for Bowen, Jr. as well. Let's see if the NCAA cowers on this one. (and most of the allegations say assistant coaches were involved in the $ arrangements so it will be hard for schools to say they weren't aware because then the NCAA will slap the dreaded "lack of institutional control" on them).
