There's tape from this leak of one of these handlers talking about Zion's dad wanting payment and an apartment, and clearly indicating a bidding war going on for his services between Kansas and another school. His two finalists were Kansas and Duke. He chose Duke to the shock of everyone not long after that conversation.


1 + 1 = 2

Only in some cases apparently. The hypocrisy is maddening.

So money changed hands? When? How much? Where did it come from?


Money doe not have to change hands, just making the offer is a violation.

It is against NCAA rules to:

"•Directly or indirectly make any arrangement for a prospect to receive cash, financial aid of any kind, or loans of any kind (including signing or co-signing for a loan)."

Just making the arrangement is against the rules, money does not have to change hands.

LSU Compliance is involved. We have no chance. Mr. Bahnsen is in charge. Mr. Do it Right unless it involves his wife getting paid to coach LSU's crappy women's golf team, umm, but she wasn't there for about 2 years. Read up on that shite show. It got so bad they had to move her to the TAF. Clean house at LSU. The entire administration needs to go. Start with F King and gut the athletic department. Remember when Emmert and Bill Jenkins came thru the athletic department with a blow torch.... Bye bye, Joe Dean and all his cronies. Need the same purge now.

Thank you! Some idiots don’t understand that. Words are just words, they can be twisted a million different ways. Unless they find factual proof of what an offer was then as far as I’m concerned it was just a scholarship offer and guaranteed playing time. I know better and so will others but unless it’s proven it all means nothing. I have always been win at all cost and LSU needs to get with the program or they’ll forever be left behind. There’s no such thing as morality when you step between those lines. Just win baby!!!

Someone explain the logic of holding Smart out on this.

If he's dirty, then he's played in just about every game this season. One more game doesn't make a difference.

If he's not, we're fricking him because Pat Forde, Dick Vitale and Jay Williams are whining.

There is no current investigation, correct? Play as though that's the case.

Wade may have gotten caught in a wiretap, but to punish LSU they still need a money trail. Some of you throw in the towel too easily.


At the end of the day Deny Deny Deny.

This is Alleva's Duke Lacrosse part 2. He should be ashamed of himself, and LSU should be ashamed for hiring him.

The writing was on the wall he would botch something big (bigger than screwing up the Les firing or Jimbo hiring). Here it is.

A nice play for the press. If it is ruled that he was an ineligible player this year,it makes no difference if he plays tonight.

There is 10x more on wiretap about Zion, yet Duke isn’t a bunch of pussies


And this isn't anything new for Duke, and our very own Joe Alleva is their former AD. I'm not here advocating for him, because that straw has been broken for me, but it's obvious F King is the real issue here.
