NCAA investigators coming to town (womens tennis)
Posted on 6/28/17 at 1:51 pm
Posted on 6/28/17 at 1:51 pm
Hearing from multiple people that the NCAA is sending investigators to BR in the next couple weeks on possible infractions by the Sells/women's tennis team.
I don't know many details, but what I've heard is multiple recruits over the past few years possibly being paid cash, parents receiving special benefits, and other smaller infractions (free racquet stringing at tournaments before coming to LSU, etc.)
LSU tried to quietly self report, but once NCAA saw the infractions they said no and want to investigate themselves
Update 1: so it sounds like the NCAA has been in contact not just with our players, but also players who were recruited by LSU over the last few years and are at other schools
Update 2: so the entire #1 recruiting class from last year is now gone. Kinglsey never stepped foot on campus, Lewis left to turn pro after one semester, and Becca Weissmann transferred to USC after one year
Just this afternoon it was announced that the top recruit from this year has decommitted

ETA: I know it's 'only women's tennis', but once the NCAA sends people it can start looking into other things too

Damn, I really like the Sell's. Fantastic coaches. Hopefully we escape the allegations

I suggest LSU suspend the program until this is sorted out.

If women's tennis gets shut down for a year, does title IX require men's tennis shut down as well? Serious question for the lawyers.

That wouldn't matter anyway. A dude could identify as a chick, and all would be perfectly fine nowadays.

No because I believe LSU would still pay their schollys for that year

Title 9 question...if we suspend it, do we have to drop a men's program during that period to still be in Title 9 compliance?
