The secret is out for Indiana (which we already knew). Cuban signing checks

Can we see Cignetti’s shark tank pitch

Good for them. That’s how you play the game in this screwed up system.

I am not mad at it. Probably because we're not recruiting the #1 player in the country battling them for him

Had no idea he went to Indiana

Mark Cuban is a flip-flopping douche bag, but you can't really hate on this. It is how it works. He's just playing the game that is allowed..
Facilities? Tradition? Pride? Fans? Coach? Meh

Money? Ok! Can't blame the kids. It is what it is.

Indiana had 20 more scholarships to play with. That means 20 more swings and misses. The more swings the better chance to hit a home run.
SEC just corrected that mistake.

I had no idea that Indiana University has the largest alumni base in the country and has an enrollment of almost 90k. That's crazy. Indiana isn't that big of a state.

It must drive liberal academia insane to watch the billionaire capitalist grandson of Ukrainaian immigrants write a check on behalf of a university to pay one player with little interest in learning anything more less get a degree, more money to play a game than a department full of physics PhD's do to teach.
