re: What is this thing linking Mizzou and Miami?

Yeah. The NCAA should be pissy about the Miami situation. But Shapiro's allegation against the basketball program seemed pretty flimsy. He alleged that he paid $10,000 to a 3rd party (not a family member or the recruit) after the recruit's LOI was already signed and that the money was subsequently returned to him.

To my knowledge, that was Shapiro's only basketball-related claim. The NCAA did uncover some improper travel payments by an assistant upon investigation. But it didnt seem like there were systemic issues that would normally follow a coach.
