College Hoops 2017. Hoosier Daddy? Wildcat strike? The Butler did it?

Re: College Hoops 2017. Hoosier Daddy? Wildcat strike? The Butler did it?

Kansas(5 losses, 4 at home)loses to OK State, a team that was 0-5 on the road heading into yesterdays game.

Gophers, with only 7 players to start the game, almost beat Top 25 ranked Michigan, IN Michigan. Took em to OT even.

I think that says more about how overrated Michigan is, than anything about a very hobbled Gopher squad.

The soundtrack to the three federal basketball corruption cases is essentially a ticking time bomb, which will inevitably explode. It will impact every major conference, Hall of Fame coaches, a score of current top players and some of the nation’s most distinguished and respected programs.

Multiple sources who’ve been briefed on the case and are familiar with the material obtained by feds told Yahoo Sports that the impact on the sport will be substantial and relentless. Sitting under protective order right now are the fruits of 330 days of monitoring activity by the feds, which one assistant US Attorney noted Thursday was “a voluminous amount of material.” That includes wiretaps from 4,000 intercepted calls and thousands of documents and bank records obtained from raids and confiscated computers, including those from notorious NBA agent Andy Miller.

“This goes a lot deeper in college basketball than four corrupt assistant coaches,” said a source who has been briefed on the details of the case. “When this all comes out, Hall of Fame coaches should be scared, lottery picks won’t be eligible to play and almost half of the 16 teams the NCAA showed on its initial NCAA tournament show this weekend should worry about their appearance being vacated.”

Hearing as many as 50 schools could be implicated, and that this isn't Northwest Soybean Field State trying to buy their way into the dance, it's the big dogs trying to stay there.

Yeah the article mentions that...who would have thought it was the agents for the shoe companies that would be the ones to take down the blue bloods.

UNC better hope their name doesnt come up because the NCAA will retroactively rape them after the crap they took for the cheating scandal. Would be great to watch Ol Roy try and aw shucks his way through that :D

My guess is the Pac-12 and Big East get hit the hardest with the Big Ten and ACC not far behind.
 
Re: College Hoops 2017. Hoosier Daddy? Wildcat strike? The Butler did it?

I guess this isn't the NCAA calling the shots but seeing as UNC got nothing for outright fraud I'm guessing a few teams get told they suck and thats about it

I liked this line, "A source who has been briefed on the case laughed: 'You might see Tennessee-Chattanooga as a No. 2 seed.'"

No way anything drops before the tournament. Nobody messes with that particular gravy train.

The intense part's going to be after the tournament, when the winner gets to set the record for fastest to vacate a championship (if they're lucky.)
 
Re: College Hoops 2017. Hoosier Daddy? Wildcat strike? The Butler did it?

You are 100% correct. The NCAA derives something like 90% of its revenue through that. Though, that money is already on contract through TV. The NCAA could give a ****. I mean, not really but you know what I mean.

Ncaa didn't make UNC vacate, why start now?

I see this ending up as nothing...
The NCAA just doesn't care what the big boys do...Just so long as the money keeps a rollin.

Uh. You know the FBI isn’t the ncaa, right?
