Again, no it isn't. Being okay with someone breaking the law isn't the same as being okay with your head coach cheating to win a basketball game. If Will Wade was even suspected of robbing a bank, everyone would be just fine with him being fired immediately.

If you want to bring breaking the law into this, then let's talk about innocent until proven guilty.

I'll say it one more time for the learning impaired....the NCAA is NOT a court of law. Courtroom "rules" DO NOT APPLY HERE.

As I said, I knew you would bring that up. I never said the NCAA was a court of law. If you want to keep bring up the breaking the law analogies then be prepared to talk about the law.

so don't bring up breaking the law.

I didn't.

You literally brought up an analogy of Will Wade robbing a bank and how people would defend him.

quote:
Do you support the NCAA putting a stop to this issue? And before you say it's not fair for some to get caught and others to get away with it....the clean-up has to start somewhere.

I am all for it IF the same rules apply to everyone. The penalties need to be applied evenly to everyone. As of now, North Carolina gets off with a slap on the wrist while Oklahoma State gets hit hard with allegations. The problem is that the big schools are allowed to get away with what the smaller schools are not. Up and coming coaches piss off the blue bloods and get looked into.

So, for a coach like Will Wade coming up all he's seen is these big time, big name schools get away with the stuff. This is all he knows as a young coach. If he wants to compete with the big boys, he has to do what they're doing which is the problem.

As I've told you before, what Wade did was wrong and whatever happens to him is his own fault. But, just going off of the facts, we don't know yet whether he paid any players or not and you seem to want to condemn for doing so without waiting for the facts to come out.
