I don't think Cal has to cheat anymore. His big pitch is that in a year, you're nearly guaranteed to be a lottery pick

It almost sounds like they don't have what they need to do anything with Kansas at this point OR they're waiting to release a bunch of shite on multiple schools again like they did Louisville, Arizona, Auburn, etc.

If Kansas is in on it, Kentucky, UNC, Duke, and all of the rest are involved too.

If they nail Coach K, the image of college hoops will be ruined.

Talked to a retired FBI agent at a Memphis football tailgate last week and he said this stuff is just the tip of the iceberg. Mentioned that it will be over 100 schools/coaches before its all said and done.

I think there are maybe a handful of clean programs in the entire country. Its why I always admired Mike White as a coach. Truly ran a clean program in Ruston and I have zero doubt he’s doing the same down in Gainesville. It’s hard to win when everyone around you is cheating, so someone not cheating in today’s game is incredibly admirable.

Even for the most morally sound coach, it’s got to be nearly impossible to follow the rules because if you don’t it could cost you your job because your on the court product is being upstaged.

I think LSU is safe. They haven’t had a real basketball coach between Dale and Wade.

If 100 is on the table somewhere else they're not working for free, even if it is for just 8 months.

yeah... this...

could mean nothing more than the department's standard apparel contract with Adidas

would I bet my money on that? absolutely not... but it's left intentionally vague

Yep, gotta admit I am worried. Izzo was even named one of the cleanest Coaches by his peers. You really just never know with college hoops. If it's over 100 programs tho I wouldnt feel all that bad about it at that point.

Holy frick I swear people want KU to be involved so bad . Gonna go out on a limb and guess not a single person in this thread actually read the article. This is nothing.

ETA: The FBI has been investigating Adidas. No shite they have documents related to a school sponsored by them. If someone files a FOIA for every Adidias school in the country you’d probably get the same reply.
