The Roy Williams hate from LSU students will always seem ridiculous to me.


quote:

In 1996-97 Dale Brown brought in his last star recruit: Baton Rouge high school phenom Lester Earl. Earl lasted 11 games at LSU before he was suspended. He transferred to the University of Kansas soon afterward. While at Kansas, Earl said that an LSU assistant coach gave him money when he was at LSU.

The NCAA quickly began an investigation. It found no evidence that Brown or his assistants paid Earl. However, it did find that a former booster paid Earl about $5,000 while he was attending LSU. LSU was placed on probation in 1998.


Roy Williams can rot in hell.

Wow, that is incredibly stupid.

A rogue LSU booster paid him. He transferred to Kansas. At Kansas, he said a coach, not a booster, paid him. It's later found out that it was in fact a booster.

Where does Roy fit into this scenario again? Did I miss something? Or is picking up a guy who got suspended at another school a damnable offense?
