RE: How do Will Wade and Sean Miller still have jobs???
From a Forbes article:
Quote:In the end, Dawkins and Haney suggest that Miller and Wade — and head coaches in general — weren’t punished was because stronger powers were at work behind the scenes.
“Lack of evidence was not the reason that coaches were not charged,” Dawkins he said of the coaches.
“They could’ve blown this whole thing up if they wanted to and they didn’t because the right people got to the right people and it was stopped,” he said.
Shocking I tell you.

Not really a shock that they still have jobs. But man, LSU and UofA should be ashamed of themselves for not yet firing them.

Only delusional Memphis Tiger fans think this way.
He also said - in response to these delusional Memphis fans, "Just wait. UNC will get hammered on the fraudulent classes" for 2 years.
Spoiler: They did not get hammered. GP was wrong.
It is because little Ole' Memphis keeps admitting fault.
Maybe. And maybe that's because we don't have deep enough pockets to properly fight. Who knows.
Doesn't change the fact that there is a bias that favors power programs.
We can't afford not to fight imo

That's part of it. But it goes deeper. P5 schools drive ratings and contracts. So the NCAA becomes a partner to them. G5 schools are competitors.

From “The Scheme”:
“Moral of the story...F*** the NCAA”
My take after watching. The FBI botched the investigation. The prosecution treated the P5 schools as “victims”. And the NCAa turned a blind eye.

Maybe I'm naive, but I just can't see Wade or Miller surviving this. I've said this before, though.

RE: How do Will Wade and Sean Miller still have jobs???
I watched it and was a little disappointed, the FBI comes out all guns blazing but then really flames out at the end, the top agent on it is in trouble for misuse of funds, partying, drinking, going overboard with the setup. They hone in on Miller and Wade and basically show them making this whole thing a joke.
Nothing will come of any of that probe except they nailed some guy who thinks he owns college hoops. Top programs now no they can do whatever they want and fear no recourse. Really sad to watch!!
Glad that got James and that 11,500 he got from his high school coach.

Because the NCAA has always been and always will be about money. If you punish the blue blood schools you take food off your table. When you have Wade doing what he did and still being there he is , like the article says, a fing gangster.
A lot like the left pushing for the Kennedy Center to get $25 million in the coronavirus bill and then they donate $5 million back to the dnc.
or the us military getting $10.5 billion more dollars in the coronavirus bill

Weird how everybody just picks their "team" and beats up on the other team. Politics should not be Auburn vs Alabama, or better yet, Memphis vs errbody. We should hold all elected officials accountable, all of them. They have successfully divided us and we're all ignoring the shortcomings of "our" team. I can't stand it, and surfing through social media, its obvious they have us all fooled.
How about "us" against morally corrupt, greedy, agenda driven, bought and paid for politicians (Republican, Democrat, right wing, liberals, Trumpeters and Trump haters) who are looking out for themselves instead of their constituency (us, all of us).

I don't see any proposals to turn the Kennedy center into a mobile hospital, but I do see actual (large, expensive) military vessels being turned into civilian hospitals. They are also telling military vessels with confirmed cases to stay at sea. So, at least there's 2 dots to connect there - unlike the Kennedy center. It's ludicrous.

Yeah, and it doesn't stop there. The medical services provided on the ships are no-charge to patients - not even their insurance providers. And the military is being pushed into logistics to help deliver medical supplies. And the military has been flying all over the globe bringing home Americans. Military scientists are studying the virus for cures & vaccines. I'm sure we're missing some.

Wrong once again. The Kennedy Center is a a 501©3 non-profit organization, the Center is legally prohibited from making contributions to any political organization.
