No way.

Court filings in a federal criminal case involving college basketball corruption link former NC State coach Mark Gottfried to being the first head coach directly connected to impermissible payments to players, sources told ESPN.

Couldn't coach a lick. Still reeled in great classes. There you go.

Creighton and TCU suspended assistant coaches with ties tonight. Suddenly these schools playing the "cya" game.

Did he pay Julius Hodge in 05?

Lord knows Herb Sendek wasn’t. He was just cashing tickets on unders.

 

[Mano]

This is all just so very surprising. I'm floored, positively flabbergasted.

I wondered, almost every year while Gottfried was there, why NC State recruited so well, especially against us.
Their past few decades were unremarkable, Gottfried wasn't exactly lighting up the league, and yet he was able to attract top talent UConn was pursuing...........Rodney for example.

Also clearly setting up the HC was unaware defense. Gonna be a lot of sacrificial lambs

In fairness, purvis was a local boy for them.

How are things going for Herb Sendek?

As the kids say his Friday night is ‘lit’.

Why do so many UConn fans think that every recruit we lose is because the other coach cheated? It is a miracle we get anyone ranked.in the top 200. Our conference sucks, our school sucks, our weather sucks, our girls are ugly, our dorms suck, our practice facility sucks, we don't play an NBA style game to showcase our players, Jay-Z doesn't come into our locker room and we aren't a blue blood. Hell, we are probably the ones cheating any time we get even a three star recruit.

Seriously now, this one was so damn obvious.

You are not being helpful bringing up Rodney and cash. Last person to do that was Glen Miller’s wife.

But other than that, we're looking good for next year, right?

According to some people, we don't ever deserve nice things.

What’s interesting to Chief is money for basketball recruits was funneled through national sneaker companies while SEC football recruits get money from local boosters. Thus far, that seems to avoid the FBI radar.

 

[donyell34]

Good point chief. See me for a summer no show job and oh! by the way take and enjoy the Cadillac for the summer.

 

[Chief00]

No evidence but my guess would be cash and gifts for LSU football players would dwarf whatever was paid by sneaker company bag men to basketball players.

This is a pretty solid first post. Nicely done.
