Message: [QUOTE="HooperScooper, post: 4416336, member: 10"] Pretty good article from Gary Parrish showing how ridiculous the IARP's rulings are and how their logic makes no sense. I know some on here don't like Parrish but I think he writes pretty good articles.

And the reason Louisville will face no postseason ban or otherwise meaningful punishment despite the fact that an Adidas representative agreed to buy a five-star prospect for the school for $100,000 is because, well, I'll just let panel chair David Benck tell you himself. "It is our interpretation that (Adidas was) primarily motivated by brand promotion, and they were trying to take steps to promote their brand, not promote the institution," Benck explained. That is LOL hilarious.[/I] [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.cbssports.com/college-basketball/news/a-postseason-ban-for-kansas-shouldnt-be-in-the-cards-after-louisvilles-slap-on-the-wrist-for-ncaa-violations/[/URL] [/QUOTE]
