Thread on MSB about it. Don't surprise me at all, other than Forde reporting it, since he's a Louisville homer.

It's not an NCAA violation because they didn't pay for the escorts' abortions

One of the LSU guys over on the MSB mentioned that they're talking to former UofL recruits and Blakeney was apparently contacted.

So they're at the very least looking into it. I don't know that it isn't just a marketing ploy for this madame to sell some books, but if it sticks I'll enjoy calling out every linebeard who's thrown up the "Well, our coaches may be shitty off the field, but they don't commit NCAA violations".

Surpised Forde reported it honestly.

Time to start a hooker killing spree in Gainesville before these ho's start talking to the NCAA.

For once, this might mean there's some credibility to the whole thing. He's rather cut his own dick off then say something bad about Pitino.

There's a Pitino "15 seconds" joke in here somewhere.

Press conference with Pitino and Jurich here in a few if anyone wants to check it out.

I think most just chalked his recruitment up to Nike/Adidas politics.


That or our strange is better

He probably caught the clap and didn't want to go back.

Between their adulterer basketball and football coaches I'm not sure how this is a surprising story to anyone.

The whole campus reeks of Crown Royal, cheap sex, and no shame.

Wish the whole city would just fall off and float over to Indiana.

Jurich will probably just unveil some inexplicable athletic facility upgrade to try and distract everyone while the checks get made out to shut everyone up.

Really surprised Forde reported this since he's the UofL fan club president. Rick must not be giving it to him regular anymore.

I think this is Jurich's excuse to take the Texas job. Before the shite really hits the fan.

And of course UK has never, ever done things like that in their recruiting.

FWIW, I don't any UK fan that will say UK has never cheated.

But you can absolutely find UofL fans who will talk endless shite about UK getting caught cheating like they are "above it". If I had a nickle for everytime I heard "We do it the right way, the Louisville way", I'd have those courtside seats at Rupp and a nice luxury box at Commonwealth.
