re: Only college basketball teams that do not cheat should be in the field of 64 for the NCAA

Will Wade should try and be a upstanding role model to these young college athletes. He should strive to be more like Nick Saban, the fine outstanding head football coach at the University of Alabama.

The University of Alabama would be a 1 seed, because we do not cheat.

Based on Friday's report, and documents obtained therein, schools that could potentially face NCAA repercussions include: Alabama, Clemson, Creighton, Duke, Iowa State, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisville, LSU, Maryland, Michigan State, NC State, North Carolina, Notre Dame, Seton Hall, USC, Utah, Villanova, Virginia, Washington, Wichita State, Texas, TCU and Xavier.

out of the 120 + schools - how many do you have to fill the 64 spots ?

---

UT doesn't have a player that was in the top 125 in the country coming out of High School...so logic would say they either didn't cheat...or they aren't very good at it. Of the players that have seen any significant playing time this season...here are their rankings out of High School (24/7 rankings):

Lamonte Turner - 3-star; National #144
Admiral Schofield - 3-star; National #251
Kyle Alexander - 3-star; National #362
Jordan Bone - 3-star; National #171
Grant Williams - 3-star; National #191
John Fulkerson - 3-star; National #238
Jorden Bowden - 3-star; National #262
Yves Pons - 4-star; National #127
Derrick Walker - 3-star; National #270

Yep...that's eight 3-star and one 4-star player with an average national player ranking of 224. So...there's one spot filled out of the 64.

Refresh my memory...how much did Colin Sexton admit to receiving while at Bama?

---

Sexton was not paid for signing with Alabama, he was paid by this fellow for choosing to do business with a certain financial advisor. He served a one game suspension and Alabama didn't get any heat from the NCAA over it.

Defense attorneys are in the process of formally filing subpoenas for both Wade and Arizona coach Sean Miller to testify for the defense at the second trial. Haney said he might try to bring in other coaches to the witness stand.

“As many as I can get in the courtroom,” Haney said. “…We are going to pull back the curtains.”

The defense will try to show through wiretapped phone calls and direct testimony from college coaches that Dawkins and Code were not attempting to bribe the coaches to gain an inside track on signing their NBA-bound talent. “The second trial will be an argument over the facts of the government’s case, which we dispute,” Haney said on Tuesday. Namely, if Dawkins and Code were attempting to bribe coaches, why wouldn’t the subject have come up on wiretap when they were discussing recruits?

So all this is to be tied to a leak from the defense of Dawkens - you are going to tell me that the Defense lawyers are leaking sealed FBI info before the trail opens to Yahoo Sports

LOL - you guys just lost me on this - and based off this shite storm you want LSU to with-draw from the NCAA

LOL

by the way - Look up the home town of Pat Forde -

Well... your first mistake, which is common, is assuming that the same number of colleges play FBS football as play Div 1 basketball. Its somewhere around 240+ teams that are eligible for the NCAAT.

The second is that you expect someone to not point and laugh at you when you get caught and you start skittering around like a cat trying to bury a turd on a frozen pound.

Other schools have been caught cheating! Yes. Yes, we have. And we paid the price for doing so. You probably joyfully put the boots in when it happened.

Congrats. Its your turn in the barrel now.

Sources told ESPN that Sexton's relationship with former AAU coach Christian Dawkins, who was arrested and named in a separate federal complaint related to the corruption probe, might also be an issue. Sources said Dawkins, from Saginaw, Michigan, was involved in Sexton's recruitment.

Sexton made official visits to three other Adidas-sponsored schools -- Kansas, NC State and Oklahoma State -- before signing with the Crimson Tide.

Yeah..ok.

you are smart enough I hope to understand what that means

I think he just wants to grasp that bubble you are living in. You need to expand your thought process. Everything you are saying, you are acting like its fact, despite the contrary

It's only because half your team is being paid the same as the NBA rookie minimum. All that $ for a 1 point victory. I hope the vacated wins and postseason ban was worth it?
