A Sea Of Red

Louisville has been hit with allegations of NCAA violations ...........again. This is one school that should receive the death penalty in basketball.

I saw this in the morning paper and KNEW Ballcoach would start a thread about this. I'm just shocked that it took him until the afternoon to post it. He also said NOTHING about how they don't belong in the ACC, so maybe he's changed his mind on that one.

I WILL NEVER change my mind on why Louisville should not be in the ACC. I am not an academic person, but even I know Louisville is a bad academic school, when compared to other ACC schools. Louisville has always been on the sleazy side. Why the ACC let them in is still puzzling to me.

(I am glad I am not the only one who still reads the morning paper)

ACC is all about b-ball. Louisville brings it on the hardwood. Every ACC school is dirty, Duke most of all.

Wow, JK37 is no longer bound by the chains of his past career. He is letting it all fly now!

Kansas is the next one up:

If NCAA has any integrity, neither Louisville nor Kansas should see post season play, for at least 3 years.

Integrity? LOL, just think Tarholes. Not even a slap on the wrist based on the corruption.

When coaches are in on the buying of recruits, it's time for death penalty.

As for UNC, the ACC commissioner is a UNC guy, and the NCAA likes the ACC, thus they did not want to make waves.

Name the coaches.

Because if you’re prepared to name and punish some, you better be prepared to go the whole way. And you’ll be shocked what you find - in Virginia.

If you’re even honest enough to acknowledge it.


So far, you don’t even understand what the southern district of NY was investigating at Louisville and Auburn five years ago.

It’s all a cesspool. No ones clean. There’s just shades of gray.

Cheating in recruiting has been happening for a long time, yet NCAA "looked the other way", pretending it wasn't happening. When someone gets caught, lower the boom on them. It took FBI investigators to open up just how bad the cheating is.
And if someone does get caught, NCAA goes light with punishment. Hand out post season bans of 3-5 years.

The issue with postseason bans is that it also punished athletes who had nothing to do with the crime. Is that really what you want?

Absolutely correct. Taking it one step further, they really do nothing to punish the people who DID commit the crime, which are (in most cases) FORMER coaches, who have either been fired or actually moved on to greener pastures before the shoe dropped. The punishment for them is in the form of "show-cause" orders, which make it more difficult for them to get another job. IMHO post-season bans only hit the target if there is a "lack of institutional control" that goes all the way to the top. They still affect a lot of people who are innocent, including uninvolved players and new coaches who have done nothing wrong.

When a coach gets caught buying a recruit, he should never be allowed to coach again. That's the worst rule violation there is.

Well since the player only comes to the school for 1-4 years it’s more like a lease or rental.

So it is only a problem if they get caught. Now your logic regarding all things NCAA and your love for the SEC is making sense.

If one were to check history books, they might see that it always the same schools cheating, most of the time.

Well, if you know how to paste Literal history books on a website you should patent it and you’d make millions.
