NCAA Corruption. Huh, Bruce Pearl?

Tip of the ice berg I bet. And to think Adidas just passed Nike in sales via some measure. Well how artificial might that be with them bribing schools and kids to get in bed under the table. If ya ain't cheating ya ain't trying. Good ole SEC and ACC schools... Imagine that. This isn't some slap on the wrist NCAA violations these are arrests and laws being broken... Yikes
 
Slightly unrelated, but I still never understood why Ben Simmons went to LSU. Still waiting for the truth of all that to come out
 
So this is one of the reasons people are paying $100 for a pair of Nike basketball shoes that are worth about $30?

Yeah there's no way that was clean either... Maybe less obvious and better hidden. But that never past the smell test either

Ben Simmons' dad played pro ball in Australia for a bunch of years. His best friend on his team--and Ben's godfather--was David Patrick. David Patrick was an assistant coach at LSU at the time; he's now at TCU.
 
I just watched the press conference and I don't see how anyone could believe a word that the FBI said. This is an obvious witch hunt by a politicized organization that has left justice behind to conduct a personal crusade against successful basketball coaches.

I assume this is sarcasm? If so, I laughed. If not, I'm scared
 
I read all of the indictments, its pretty damning. I love this part talking about "university-6" which is almost 100% Louisville:

BRAD AUGUSTINE:
"Nobody swings a bigger dick at company-1 than "coach-2". All "coach-2" has to do is pick up a phone and say these are my guys, they're taking care of us"

Company-1 is obviously adidas and coach-2 has to be Rick Pitino.

It was a bad attempt at being funny. Zero Hedge is sort of the totally not crazy crazy conspiracy sites. No need to be scared.
