How much anguish did the NCAA inflict on Fab Melo? The people who did this deserve worse.

What are you talking about?
Jeez stop.
Fab was suspended because he didn’t keep himself academic eligible.
Our tutor cheated.
Did we get over punished? Yes

Did Fab keep himself academic eligible?
No.

Fab became a first round pick in the NBA draft. He didn’t get his career taken away.

He got help writing a paper about his life, academic fraud, lol. He came out of that whole thing as the scapegoat. He was singled out, unless your going tell that all the other players at all the other programs are not possibly doing this and worse. I can't imagine how bad he felt thinking that he cost his coaches and teammates a real chance at a championship.

You don’t get academic eligibility.

Fab cheated.

He didn’t do nothing. He wasn’t doing the minimum to stay academic eligible.

1 class and paper wasn’t why his academics were poor.

The kid was not the scapegoat.

Your opinions aren’t automatically facts.

Back to the topic at hand.

I read the Pat Forde article Zion Williamson named in new book on college basketball FBI scandal - Sports Illustrated

and couldnt help but laugh at the Billy Donovan part screaming at Nike about how they keep helping Kentucky. I totally believe that and it explains why he got out of college

He was also not a great person. Know folks who knew him and stories were not pretty.

Considering Auburn had to self impose a postseason ban last year.
We had too in 2015.
Louisville did recently as well.

Kansas.Arizona.LSU eventually will be banned for one postseason.

True. Also true that we knew there were issues before he came to campus but we still took him.

It was between us and Pitino’s Louisville if I recall. Bet everyone thought he‘d be a big impact player who was 1 and done so academic issues would be minimized. Instead he came in overweight, out of condition his freshman year requiring 2 years.

Nice, Will Wade doubled down on his cheating. Unless they nail Bil Self, it means that the "blue bloods" are safe no matter what they do.

Shocked I tell ya, shocked

He lives in the shady underbelly of AAU boosters and bagmen

 

[hoopsupstate]

Larry Brown is also on staff and he’s always been a walking violation.

 

[Cusefan0307]

Meanwhile Kansas is a win away from the Final Four in the Midwest region and they don’t give two shts.

Bad Penny.

Exactly.
It’s all for show. It’ll be 2-3 years before they’ll get it resolved & during that time you can bet that several more schools will be cited as well.
The ncaa is a toothless paper tiger & their penalties & “consequences “ are a joke.

Whenever Memphis is good, infractions follow.
