Miami implicated too. They anonymously detail university info but provide enough details to out who it is.

Do you hear that, Jalen Carey?

 

[Trueblue25]

can i get a st johns too?!?

They have all of this on tape too...even discussing how Louisville was on probation so they had to be extra careful. Video recordings from rooms in Vegas around a conference, etc. Louisville's program is getting destroyed in this.

This makes a lot of sense. Larranaga is a great coach and instructor, but based on my limited observation of recruiting they've been punching far above their weight class for a few years.

Nah sounds like the investigation was focused on Public Universities

Edit: Although who knows if Miami is implicated

Does it mention specific schools?

Bye bye mr rick pitino the cheating guy

 

[chugg21]

wouldn't be surprised if at least a couple of these schools try to retain them after legal stuff (plea deals, etc) sorted out

No shot, the head coaches are going to distance themselves immediately.

Mentions enough that you can figure it out. Location, public vs. private, number of schools...I havent finished but I'm concerned about the Miami one. It's a 2018 recruit and specifically mentions a University-4 offering similar money and it's sponsored by a competing apparel company...this is all from August (last month)...so if carey it'd be us or uconn.

 

[Orangezoo]

The zona, louisville and Miami forums today should make for good reading

 

[SUFan44]

This is huge news. Unbelievable that the FBI got involved, but not unbelievable that this has gone on.

 

[Alsacs]

These indictments are strictly to squeeze these guys into flipping on the people with money.

They won't go to jail unless they don't cooperate.

Hopefully this gets Arizona out of the northeast.

 

[OttoinGrotto]

We're like 30 steps from this happening, but I think this helps strengthen the case for letting players profit from their own name and likeness.

 

[BlackSquirrels]

If SU's involved, this is complete BS.

If not, bury these cheating lowlifes.

Reading on, my money is Ayla. Mentions if it's 2017 vs...2018 it'd be easier. And makes a lot more sense given his recruitment now...
