[QUOTE="RamblinRed, post: 584378, member: 1776"] First, this from before the scandal broke, talks about how cheating in recruiting has changed (sort of plays into exactly what scandal uncovered) Almost 3X as many coaches said cheating is worse than it was 5 years ago than say it is better. [URL]https://www.cbssports.com/college-basketball/news/candid-coaches-college-basketball-recruiting-isnt-getting-any-cleaner/[/URL] This from last fall. about a 50/50 split on whether the scandal has reduced cheating. [URL]https://www.cbssports.com/college-basketball/news/candid-coaches-has-the-fbis-investigation-significantly-reduced-cheating-in-the-past-10-months/[/URL] On one of the podcasts a few weeks ago Matt Norlander mentioned he had a number of coaches call him after Will Wade was reinstated at LSU really mad. Not because they don't like him, but because if someone was cheating as blatantly as he was and nothing happens, what reason is there for anyone not to cheat and even try to do things the 'right' way. do I think Zion went to Duke for 'free' when there are tapes where his family members are asking for benefits from other schools. Heck no. Do I have any proof duke or any shoe company or any agent provided benefits to Zion and/or his family - absolutely not. But i think it stretches rational belief to believe family gave up 6 figure numbers for Zion to go somewhere for free. It also often not the school paying the SA. Alot of the times it is a shoe company, or an agent/runner who provide benefits to family/friends/influencers to get the SA to go to a school that they are comfortable with (one where they expect the SA will end up back signing a contract with them). There is a reason most of the top Nike kids end up at the top Nike schools, why alot of the top Adidas kids end up at Kansas and L'ville. Some of it has to do with the tradition and quality of the coaches -but that is certainly not always why. When you see alot of smoke rising from a forest and you don't see a fire you can argue there is no fire because you cannot see it, but that doesn't mean it isn't there. [/QUOTE]
