We didn't stretch the right bounds or pay the right piper or whatever figure of speech you choose to use. We weren't going to win a bidding war with $300 in unmarked bills.

Some humor from the committee. Lousiville vs. Pitino Jr at Minnesota in round 1.

My point was that we need to lose the attitude that someone will hire away our coaches if they are any good. I don't have a problem with Pastner getting a one year extension.

This type of thinking you point out is one that GT needs to stop. It is inherently damaging, negative, and destructive.

Units are earned by playing in a game. This includes the Final Four but not the championship game.

One of the worst hires ever:

And we thank you for that.

Keeping score on buyouts

That is a good point and begs the question why we didn't take care of this and self impose for this post season prior to it starting? I don't buy the Carter wasn't gone long enough line. He was drafted by the NBA the prior summer. You can't be much more gone. Again, let's not allow our...

When a school reports a violation the standard procedure is to suspend the player until completing an investigation. I'm not sure if that is what you are asking. The rules are complex and weird. That's why you have to employ people who understand it.

I guess I am doubling down on it:

Duke is a Nike school. What am I missing here?

There seems to be some idea that the NCAA is supposed to be a great paragon of justice. It isn't. It is terribly inconsistent. That doesn't matter. The schools don't trust each other so they created a bureaucratic institution to enforce the rules the schools pass. They severely limit the powers...

It looks like the NCAA wants to place a show-cause penalty on LaBarrie for attempting a cover up and tampering. GT can't impose anything like that. It did what it could do and fired him. We'll see if we gained any competence in compliance with the results of this.

They better hope that small print is big enough. For those that don't know, since Wake is a private school no one is getting their grubby little fingers on that contract.

Martin Fox is the link from the basketball scandal to the rich kid, fake athlete scandal.

They called it a flagrant 1. I thought it was a cheap shot at the time and said so in chat. You don't undercut a guy like that.

It would be structured as it is now. There is no buyout.
