Ryan was a USC commit when a frosh in HS. With that rep, and given his age at that time, I'm sure some AAU coaches took advantage w/o boat's full understanding.
I do believe the AAU programs should be done away with and the player control given back to their HS coaches. I also believe the shoe companies sponsorship of these AAU coaches & tournies is very unhealthy for the sport and easily should be done away with.

Ncaa sucks in this situation, even the first 6 games were questionable as to all the AAU kids and especially the higher ranked one's fly all over the country , They have to eat too and wear sneakers. Pt. being they could probably go to any of the high recruits and if you look hard enough you might find something also something done by an adult , coach or sponsor or something however they run these things . So it sure in the hell seems that all there focus is on Boat go figure. Feel for the kid , 1st year in college and what should just be a super great time and experience as you get to play ball , meet all kinds of people too expand your horizons, get educated , toughen up and grow to be a man and all else that's goes with it and hopefully he is getting most of that even as the ncaa's mess's with him and Uconn. You can bet your boots if this was Duke it would be over in 20minutes. Stay strong Ryan you will get through this and enjoy to the upmost your college experience once the ncaa gets off your back.

I'm incensed by this.

I have an uncommon perspective on the world, to be sure, and one component of that is that I'm an extremist when it comes to criminal law and such matters - all judicial flexibility should go to the defendant. If you want to put a man in jail, give him full due process, and prove your case.

It is fundamentally wrong that they are allowed to pursue this matter at this juncture. There needs to be a statute of limitations type restriction on these matters, particularly given that the events in question occurred before he came to UConn. Further, there needs to be an "all or nothing" approach to bringing inquires. You bring it all, or you are barred from bringing a portion of it later. None of this, "there's new evidence" horse- two months after the last go round.

I don't know enough about the system to know what the avenues of voicing discontent are, but I'd be voicing my displeasure up and down all of them right now if it was me.

OK I hate this "haters gonna hate" crap.

EVERY sports fan hates other teams and if you don't you are a wuss.

I hate:
Syracuse (no surprise)
Duke basketball
ND football
Yankees
NY Giants
University of Florida
TBlow

All of them cannot lose enough to make me happy

I feel bad too, but we need more details. Could be something there or maybe not.

Stay strong RB.

And strangely enough, all the major media players that weigh in on this kinda stuff have been silent.

CBS? NBC? SI? ESPN? Nada...
