So the "Strong arse Offer" was an assistant coaching job offer?





THIS IS DONE ALL THE TIME IN EVERY COLLEGE SPORT.

or June 2017 by the FBI on a wiretap related to the federal criminal trial in the Southern
District of New York.


Dawkins WASN'T a convicted felon at that time... these fricking people.

Monday morning quarterbacking a 2022 NOA.

Sick fricks.

ETA: This shite should have been defended to the hilt. It's innuendos and media-writer sensationalisms like that that get fricking tossed once everyone is under oath and the sliver of cold hard facts are argued.... not some heresay, bullshite, but PROVEABLE hard facts.

This is concerning Cisse who we did not land. This is a pure allegation based on he said she said. Calipari's mom could have told the NCAA investigators this story for all we know. The NCAA provides no evidence that this happened.

This is total bull shite.

You accidently run into Trendon Watford's family in a restaurant when you arrived first and Christian and Trendon's mom come say hi at your table after you been personal friend with Trendon's family since he was 2.

Total bull shite allegation.

Yeah, lots of accusations being tossed with little hard proof.

Doesn't shoe companies steer kids towards certain schools ALL the time?

It is alleged that, from the beginning of the NCAA investigation into the above allegations
and continuing to the present, Will Wade (Wade), head men's basketball coach, violated
the NCAA principles of ethical conduct and failed to cooperate in the investigation of
Allegation Nos. 4 through 8, as well as a number of other allegations the CCU was
ultimately unable to substantiate fully, when he refused to produce all records the CCU
requested from him.


The NCAA is like

because Wade's attorneys told him to keep quiet.

After reading some of it, I can see why people think the NCAA is a joke of an organization. Reads like a bunch nerds
that cooked this up in their Moms basement. Most of this shite is light compared to what actually goes on in collegiate sports. I can see why most schools tell them to get fricked.

They should disregard the restaurant encounter, it's minor. Also disregard Odell Beckham, he's been nuts since he left LSU. We can't control what that nut does.

It is alleged that Will Wade (Wade), head men's basketball coach, is presumed responsible
for the violations detailed in Allegation No. 4 through 8 and did not rebut the presumption
of responsibility. In particular, Wade did not demonstrate that he (1) promoted an
atmosphere for compliance because of his personal involvement in the allegations or (2)
monitored the men’s basketball program based on the conduct of assistant coach
Armstrong detailed in Allegation No. 6. The evidence establishes, at a minimum, that Wade
was aware of Armstrong’s conduct but did not stop it.


So an allegation about not addressing the previous allegations to our satisfaction?
