Exactly. We finally have the smoking gun against puke and it will probably never be official in any court documents. Settling for sure before Zion ever has to testify. Between this and the bagley’s and Magette, they will skate once more. Pathetic.
Dicky V being Dicky!!

That is like having the fox be accountable for all the chickens in the coop.
It’s simply the Kansas defense. We “didn’t know” so it’s not on us. The reality is it was widely known even to the point of the house being public knowledge while he was at Duke. Choosing to ignore it and not ask makes them innocent? We all know the idea of pretending the coaches and Universities aren’t aware of what shoe co’s and others are doing is just a way around the rules. If it happens to come out about UK I will say the same. It may be the way things are in CBB, but Duke and Coach K are certainly as dirty and complicit as all others- maybe even more so
Amen, brother. Spot on.
Dukie V will be committed if rat face is found to have broken rules. I'm sure puke will investigate and say no NCAA rules were broken and it goes away. Zion will settle out of court.
Dickie V got the call from Coach K, already setting the narrative. K knows DV has hundreds of thousands of followers on Social media. And of course, the DV lovers will fall in tow and preach the company line. Settlement, no testimony, No Zion or family testimony, and K skates again, like with Thomas, Maggetti etc
How in the hell does he know the NCAA has already cleared Duke? How has it already been investigated? That **** was investigated and cleared faster than Marvin Bagley's bogus transcripts.
His amateur status is critical to the case. If it goes to trial, he and K will have to testify. Whether they the truth and whether there’s hard evidence is TBD. We all see what happened, proving it in a court of law is a little different.
From Wiki:
The National Invitation Tournament (NIT) is a men's college basketball tournament operated by the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA). Played at regional sites and at Madison Square Garden (Final Four) in New York City each March and April, it was founded in 1938 and was originally the most prestigious post-season showcase for college basketball.
Over time it became eclipsed by the NCAA Division I Men's Basketball Tournament—now known informally as "March Madness".
It was just a tournament, but some organization needs to take over once the NCAA implodes (my dream)--too much money and corruption; i.e. the scales of justice apparently always has one eye open peaking underneath the blindfold.
Go CATS!
His words are a little garbled and hard to decipher some times. Gotta ask Coach K for the translation.
This is the Yahoo story on Zion, coach K, and Dook that I read the other day that breaks things down well. It outlines why Dook probably won't see any issues with the NCAA.
They are lucky this is about money for Ford getting screwed over and nothing else, but more has come out already than they ever imagined and shows K is a cheating bastard. I knew there was no way he could out of nowhere start going head to head with Cal. Cal is the best recruiter in the nation and then others started to catch up. Now we know why.

But it's a tournament ran by the NCAA. That would mean the NCAA is taking over from the NCAA.
Yep. They, duke, are who we have thought they were all along. A group of cheating asswipes!
ever think you'd see the day when someone would readily admit a player or their family got cars & a house & shoe MONEY and with a straight face say its all above board?
remember when a $1000 in an emery envelope would get your school on probation?
now that's the same as cream cheese on a bagel

He’s the only AD ever who is qualified to check and balance himself lol. He’s a human constitution.
Just like anyone else he can be a total schmuck when it comes to his job and be a great individual.
LOL... I hear what you're saying.... The NCAA actually bought out the NIT years ago, and as you point out, run the NIT tournament. Maybe i should be more precise and say... The NCAA governing body is a bunch of low life, scum that's corrupt by money and power and should be replaced by someone else...!
Go CATS!
The governing body are the schools. Capilouto is currently a member of the NCAA board of governors. They could meet Monday morning and fire Emmert if they thought he was acting outside their guidelines.
They are his boss. Whatever they tell him to do are his guidelines. If he is allowed to free range and cowboy those are his guidelines. If they give specific instructions those are his guidelines. If they didn't like it they would fire him. So any of the stuff people accuse him of doing lies directly at the feet of his bosses. Doesn't matter if he has leeway or influence to do what he wants, he still answers to the list of people below:
http://web1.ncaa.org/committees/committees_roster.jsp?CommitteeName=EXEC
Those people employ him.
They haven't followed guidelines in the past. The NCAA themselves has not been consistent in following any guidelines. They pick and choose their pets. UNC and Duke get a free pass and Cleveland State better watch out.
This is about what his bosses are telling him to do or allowing him to do. Not about NCAA rules.
If he does not enforce or follow NCAA rules or he does stuff that most people believe is unethical and the board of governors do not fire him then they approve of his actions.
The board of governors are made up of mostly University Presidents. They represent the schools. The schools approve of his actions if they do not fire him. They are responsible for his or the NCAA's actions.
If you change the organization that administers Collegiate sports and the schools are in charge again will there be a difference from what we see today? Not likely because I believe making sure the money keeps rolling in is the primary goal of the Universities and they don't care much about anything else. Emmert is a clown show that draws heat while the board of governors stay in the background insulated.
Yes but when people say destroy the NCAA they don't realize the same clowns will be in charge when the rebranding occurs. The same tricks will go on.
Emmert is the one who goes in front of Congress to defend the NCAA. He is the one who does press conferences when there is an issue. Everyone blames him when UNC and Duke get to play on a different playing field. He is the front man while the board of governors remain invisible.

He does get creepy at times. A few years back he kept going on about Bam's shoulders. We all know Bam was jacked, but Dickie V wouldn't stop and it was super cringey.
After watching UNC "get investigated" by the NCAA, only to find problems with the football team.... THEN, reopen an investigation years later that took literally YEARS only after a rival school published damning info....
Only to find that it wasn't a NCAA issue (you know, fake classes and all...)
You're telling me that the other member Universities would approve of this? And that they did? You're trying to make it appear so matter of fact and simple, when we all see that it's corruption...
So, yes, I'm okay with starting over and seeing if the next Organization can do it any better...
Go CATS!
What can we say when our very own president decides not to punish schools for academic fraud? What was his reason for doing this?

Why do they let Duke and UNC slide? Because exposing their poster children also exposes them. EVERY school would be on probation if put under a strict NCAA Microscope. The member schools dont want their own cash cow's exposed to the light of day.
Ramifications would be possibly losing their non-profit status, players unionizing and taking a cut of the pie, over sight by their own state or university to reign in spending.
That last one is big because when you're a non-profit you spend everything you've got. Its EASY to never show a profit. The magic is to continually claim proverty, but pay your top employees literally millions per year guaranteed. No other business could spend like some of these schools, and look into the cameras with a straight face and say "we're broke". Its laughable.

What in the world is going on there? Any guesses?
Everyone seems to agree that UNC benefited from years of cheating (2+ decades at least)....
But nothing to be done about it %$@#!
