Going after the SEC but not one mention of UK! It's laughable.

In May 2019, NCAA vice president of enforcement Jon Duncan walked into a ballroom at the Sandestin Hilton in Destin, Fla. Facing an audience of Southeastern Conference administrators and coaches at the league's annual spring meetings, Duncan repeated his mantra: "Our mission is to protect compliant schools."

At that point, it had been 20 months since federal investigators filed indictments against several college basketball coaches and insiders for their roles in a bribery scheme that exposed the sport's corrupt underground economy. At least a dozen Division I programs were implicated in the scandal, including four SEC programs—Auburn, LSU, Alabama and South Carolina. But on that spring day in 2019 when Duncan spoke to leaders of that conference, not much had happened yet from an NCAA investigative perspective. And since that day, another 16 1/2 months have passed without any tangible impact.

He's based in Kentucky and basketball season is getting underway (practice started last week). Thus, there is interest turning to the sport. What better time to stir the pot with conjecture

I guess he has to find something else to talk about now that every conference is going to play football.

And who are these anonymous sec people he is quoting.
Reveal your sources.
If I'm Sankey I would be pissed.
Other sec schools talking to other sec schools.
Is Calipari his one source in this?

It's been a while since Vitale has said anything, so expect something from him in the near future.

I would love to see Will Wade sitting at the final four press conference and just piling on Forde and Dick V. It would be great watching him crush them just like he did the ULL coach

I don't think Will should poke the bear. His best course of action is to just coach his team and hope this all goes away on its own. Don't give the NCAA any more reason to look our way.

But going scorched earth would be glorious

A big feature piece like this attacking the NCAA for inaction means they don't think anything's coming.
