Lol. Calkins trolling

Also, his argument is logical.

Spot on. Wolken retweets, chimes in - read from bottom->up ...

Totally unrelated, people forget about the Texas team Memphis stomped in the Elite 8. That team won 31 games, tied Kansas in reg season!

Bottom line, NCAA didn’t even attempt an investigation that hit at the potential SAT wrongdoing, just leaned on “Strict liability.” Joke.
Knowing the way they operated, it’s totally plausible they just bungled the accounting. And is that enough to take a banner down anyway?
And I’m not sure why a $7,000 credit card bill would have been a big deal when Rose was about to be an instant millionaire. Who knows
Accounting error, which you can choose to believe or not, I guess. While it seems lame, he was charged properly for most of his trips…2/
I know some will also point to Reggie Rose riding on the team plane and not being charged for it. Memphis’ explanation for that was…1/
No matter what you think of that recruitment or Calipari or Memphis, I’m not sure what anybody really could have done at that point.
Think about it for a second. The testing service notified Rose, at his home, during the NCAA tournament, that his SAT score was in question.

All of this is accurate. One of the most ridiculous NCAA decisions ever, in a long line of them.Dan Wolken added,

NCAA should give Memphis its banner back. My column: http://www.commercialappeal.com/story/sp.../99622720/ …

So they notify Rose during the tournament that his SAT scores are suspect. smh.

Our backup point guard got removed right before the tournament also...I've never heard of that happening before or since. But prolly it did...right...? I mean we couldn't have been the only participant in the history of the tournament that had a key player drug tested and removed.

I'm half serious..I mean.surely it happened to someone else. I know it happened to the Grizzlies.

The 'Memphis Strict Liability Penality' is a harsh mistress.

Correctamundo. Always remember his job is to sell papers and internet clicks. If you keep that in perspective, you will understand why he is writing about this now.

Is this because I posted his Scott Drew hatchet job?

Absolutely

NCAA is too busy 'covering up' North Carolina's fraud to deal with us.

I would have hung that banner from the start. And if the NCAA said to take it down, I would have told them if they want it down, then take it down. Then hang it again after they leave. They don't have time to keep checking.

They must have worked for Trump. Notified him at home where he went during half time for a glass of milk and flew back in time to be there for the second half tip-off. Makes sense. Hard to understand why he missed the voice mail left on his mother's phone. Got teach him a lesson, no more cookies with his milk.

First I have heard of that (not saying it didnt happen), but Arthur's was documented and proven, with his HS punished. Much more proven situation than Rose's and NOTHING...

I also think it was written because UNC is in town
