OT: CBB Players affected by FBI Probe

[tcf15]

Collin Sexton of Alabama, consensus top 5 recruit, the most recent college basketball players being held out. Which other players are being held out?

Re-instated?

Did they even admit he didn't have it in the first place?

The way it works is the schools conduct their little internal investigation, and if they think there is a problem they self-report to the NCAA that the kid might be ineligible and then ask for a review and possibly a waiver.

This doesn't have to be made public and if the school has no games during that time, it's possible for no one to find out. It doesn't necessary imply that they expected reinstatement, just that it hasn't happened so that's why he's not going to play.

Curious what Zona might be doing as it relates to an internal investigation. Melton from USC has not been playing in the exhibitions. The loss of Sexton should put a fork in Bama. Assuming it lasts for the year.

Pastner of G Tech has a very negative report about him and the program that came to light after he jilted "a friend" who happens to be a drug addicted mover and shaker that he met when he played at Zona. Its on CBS Sports

Sorry if this was the tweet you put up HuskyMedic but I can't read the them at work!!!

Yeah I just think it's funny the way they try to PR spin it. The headline is "Colin Sexton indefinitely ineligible due to internal investigation concluding he potentially received impermissible benefits, NCAA currently reviewing" and literally the first thing the school says on the matter is "NCAA hasn't told us if Sexton will be cleared." Cleared from what?!?! The last thing your school said on the matter was that it found no NCAA violations.

But did he also provide benefits to non-scholarship students? If yes, then nothing to see here.

Well, in their semantic defense, a player not being eligible to play is not the same as the school committing an NCAA violation.
