I'll keep a list and update it. If anyone notices any school I've missed, or misplaced, let me know:

A. Schools Already Impacted:
1. Louisville - 'University 6' in report - Pitino and Tom Jurich on administrative leave
2. Arizona - Book Richardson arrested, Emmanuel Richardson arrested
3. Auburn - Chuck Person arrested (released from custody) and suspended without pay
4. Oklahoma St. - Lamont Evans arrested

B. Schools Likely Impacted:
1. Miami - 'University 7' in report
2. USC (California) - Tony Bland accused on several counts
3. South Carolina - 'University 2' in report - Lamont Evans again

C. Schools Potentially Involved (not verified):
1. Kansas
2. Illinois
Too bad Duke and North Carolina can't be caught up in this web;)

Dan Dakich was asked on the radio why would coaches who're cheating not turn themselves in

Kelvin Sampson, Ray McCallum Entitled and stupid

TIFWIW, I hadn't seen SCar noted officially. I got my popcorn ready. All these johnny-come-lately non-basketball "power" schools who all of a sudden have success need to be nervous.

Not likely. The prohibition against high school grads entering the draft is embedded in the CBA. It was just renewed this year and runs through the 2023-24 season. It is my guess we will see a few more recruits opt for the Euro leagues, or continue the one and done game we now "enjoy."

The NCAA could end the one and done by treating their athletes as contract employees. That isn't likely to happen, so my prediction is that nothing will change.

Disagree. I think it’s gonna happen as well. In my opinion the D league (or whatever the **** it’s called now) is going to explode in the next few years

Here's a longer article on the scheme and it's possible consequences:

https://www.insidehighered.com/news...197609261&mc_cid=3577438ba7&mc_eid=3efd616175

This is really, really bad. Penn State was horrendous, Baylor was awful, UNC is unconscionable, but the amateur status of college athletics wasn't at stake as a result. It is now. I don't know what the NCAA will do, but anything less then the Death Penalty will look pretty flabby.

As to Rick Pitino: if Louisville thinks that "unpaid leave" will save them from possible decapitation by the NCAA, they have another think coming. Too bad that there isn't any way to get Bobby Petrino caught up in this. Yet.
I wish Nick Saban and Alabama could be caught up in this;)

This is just the beginning. Bama doesn't just come in and steal a 5 star from the blue bloods bc of their hoops history or being in Tuscaloosa. Miss State is also on the list and I think several coaches and players are sweating bullets.

Exactly. Hell Bama Basketball was average when their best coach was coaching the program (Sanderson).
