Someone Please Explain This

Nassir Little #14 Says he didn't want to be involved with scandal that included Arizona and Louisville. So he committed to North Carolina. I made an appointment with a psychiatrist.

Because he knows what the rest of us who are not UNC fans know - slap on the wrist at best.

Roy told him no scandal. It's an acedemic thing. You're here foe basketball son.

Little said UNC coach Roy Williams has insinuated to him that the Tar Heels won’t receive a significant punishment from the NCAA. He said that Williams has not told him of the specific punishment, but told him generally: “It’s not necessarily an athletic thing,” he said Williams told him. “It wasn’t just the basketball team involved in it. They’re not going to be penalized as people suggest.”

Little said he’s avoided looking at his phone to block out the “noise” surrounding the controversy.

Top recruits address college basketball scandal: 'It's unfortunate. It's crazy.'

Now whether that's true or not remains to be seen.

To insinuate is to "suggest or hint (something bad or reprehensible) in an indirect and unpleasant way" or it is to "maneuver oneself into (a position of favor or office) by subtle manipulation." Take your pick Cryin' Roy still comes out on top.

So, if he could have gone to UNC initially, yet was looking at Ville and Zona, am I only person who thinks he was negotiating $$$$ from those 2 schools?

That’s what Chief has been saying -,too much money at stake to punish UNC in a real meaningful manner. The punishment will sound bad to the casual observer but there won’t be the enforcement steps to kill the program.

There appears to be signs that there was a bidding war by his AAU director between Miami and Arizona for his services. He opted to steer clear of that mess (assuming he is going to plead ignorance on what Augustine was doing). The -Am issue isn't on his radar.

I know his AAU coach not super well but seems like a good guy. I don't know how he could advise him this is a good decision.

"Similarly, illeism is used with an air of grandeur, to give the speaker lofty airs. Idiosyncratic and conceited people are known to either use or are lampooned as using illeism to puff themselves up or illustrate their egotism."
