This is anti-semitism.

Initially they did. They NCAA allowed (encouraged) them to change their argument.

Meh. Talk about willfully turning a blind eye to both UNC and Duke to try to call out a non-traditional program.
What’s the one program that’s landed more 5 stars than these over the past 10 years?

So at Auburn, he's had an assistant pocket money for steering players to a financial advisor and custom suit guy. Then another that may have taken money at another school to filter in a rich guy's kid through using a basketball scholarship.

Yep, those are Bruce Pearl's fault. What a clickbait, over the top article.

What have those programs done? I haven't read anything about Mike Krzyzewski and Roy Williams. Either way, I doubt they're anywhere near as sleazy as Bruce Pearl is. Pearl is pure slime.

Bruce, Bruce, Bruce. Typical left wing white guilt ridden person. How could you support a clown like kaepernick? He hates the United States.
Bruce, how do you feel about all of the antisemitism, anti-Israel & anti-Jewish views that now dominate your democrat party?

I believe he also refused to cooperate with the school's investigation, not that they actually did one. The dude is scum and you know it. So does every Auburn fan. They just don't care, and that's okay. You have to wear that badge though.

Yet the school somehow didn't punish him at all.

By comparison here is the last article USA Today published about Roy Williams:

Roy Williams doesn't want to hear talk of his amazing coaching streak at NCAA tournament


And Coach K:


Ranking the 10 best Duke teams under Mike Krzyzewski




Sorry Bruce.

I have a Roy Williams at Kansas to sell you if you don’t believe he hasn’t had issues before UNC. If we’re going to use that standard with Calipari or Pearl (and plenty here and in the media does) then that goes both ways.

Bruce met with the school, and cooperated with the investigation by providing enough information that he was able to keep his job.

Dude, man up and admit it. He is a complete sleaze with an incredibly checkered past as a coach and you know it. He was a sleaze long before he showed up at UT. Look up Deon Thomas. Then he had the audacity to blatantly lie to UT and the NCAA.
