[QUOTE="RamblinRed, post: 478175, member: 1776"] Interestingly, Matt Norlander reported last week that he thought this was playing much differently to the jury than to college basketball followers. The Judge kept the trial very focused on the federal charges and made plain it was not a trial against the NCAA basketball system. none of the jurors were college basketball fans. The government argued that schools wouldn't be spending hundreds of thousands to millions on compliance departments if they weren't serious about eligibility. Clearly the jury bought that. Note that alot of what we got to hear the jury never heard. Most of it was not allowed by the judge as being not relevant to the federal charges. You have to remember that it was the defense attorneys that wanted to bring in most of the tapes and in essence make it about the college basketball system. The judge largely disallowed that. This also effectively separates the coach from the University. Basically saying the coach is not always acting in the best interest of the school, just in their best interest. Will certainly up the pressure on the defendants in the remaining two trials to cut a deal. [/QUOTE]
