This is a game changer.   Things could get ugly for the NCAA in all sports.  

Yes indeed.  The real game changer here is the Feds are involved.  You can bet they will trying to get some folks to "sing."   For instance, without singling anyone out, Person gets arrested due to violations at Auburn.  Auburn.  Ordinarily, I would guess that most conference mates don't want to rat on each other.  But when you involve the prospects of jail time, all bets are off.  And I promise you they are all well aware of what each other is doing.

That’s what Adidas gets for passing up Jordan as the #2 shoe brand.  Nike’s got deep pockets.

What's really damaging is that the Feds did all this investigating without the NCAA's knowledge. They kept those guys out of the loop.

Heads will roll.

Yep.  And with deliberation.  Multi-billion dollar empire could be on the verge of collapse.  Which I would love to see.

Pitino tells his staff he will be gone.  Louisville might get the SMU treatment   

 

This is the hidden content, please

This is just the start. I see other universities crumbling.

I also see some major changes coming down the pipe in regards to NCAA, shoe companies, agents and AAU.

The AD refused to fire Pitino, so they fired him as well.

Louisville AD's daughter was an Adidas employee also...NCAA Brand Communication Manager

Jurich was widely considered one of the top AD’s in the country up until yesterday. He should have taken the Texas AD job when he had the chance.

    • We all know that each state has its own laws which can be very different, especially in endeavors like annexation or incorporation, so there is no telling what Louisiana law says. I don’t know but I doubt that there is a point of appeal for Baton Rouge to force St. George to be absorbed back into Baton Rouge by now giving them what they asked for years ago. “Oh, we lost? Well let’s just undo incorporation, ruled as legal by the Supreme Court (of LA)  by going back and giving them what they asked for”. There has to be a law allowing such an appeal. I think what I read about the lower court decisions which actually backed up Baton Rouge, they did not all rule that incorporation was illegal but that they did not think the city could have services up and running soon enough. So you have a court saying that sure you can split but only if we agree that you can provide services get enough. In Louisiana, who knows? I doubt that Texas has such a mechanism to allow a city to split, for example, could the west end of Beaumont say that they wish to make their own city against Beaumont’s objection? I doubt it. Certainly Beaumont could allow a city to be created as Port Arthur did with Bridge City and Taylor’s Landing. There is a huge difference in allowing and forcing which is what happened in Baton Rouge. Similar to the sometime discussed topic of Texas splitting off from the United States because they don’t like the way things are going, think if citizens in any city in the United States were allowed to create their own city, which could not be stopped by the parent city.  That could get interesting!! Don't like what is happening in the south side of Chicago? Just de-annex and create your own city!! Anyway, I thought that it is an interesting story when the capital city splits in half.   
    • Wasn't that 1st round loss last year? Also, during those previous 10 years I am pretty sure Jasper didn't go 2-58 in district play in the other 5 sports.
    • Ma'am, I don't think he said all Muslims were like that. If I'm reading this right, he's referencing the terrorist Muslims. You know, the ones who commit murder & have no regard for anyone who doesn't follow their jihadist beliefs...
    • Great playoff run, no doubt.  They did make the 3rd round(1 less) 4 of the previous 10 years, only one first round loss. 6 district championships and 4 second place.  The only 4 years Carthage was in the same district. So no, I'm not sure it does make sense.
