[QUOTE="lv20gt, post: 601146, member: 2299"] His comment about make-a-wish was in regards to how Bell lied about having cancer to get closer to Pastner and the team. Guy claims to have terminal cancer, calls Pastner his hero, and asks some favors. That is, literally, like a make a wish situation. It's not a lie just because the author tried to editorialize it to draw readers. This article came out a year and a half after the interview took place, 4 months after the NCAA sent out it's NOA, and 2 months after GT's response was due. The NOA dealt explicitly with a coach, DLab, misleading the NCAA, so there is no reason to believe the NCAA views Pastner as having misled them since he wasn't accused of anything in the NOA. So why is this article pretending that he did? Probably for the same reason it doesn't just post the transcript of the interview and let people decide for themselves. Without the editorializing this isn't a story, and this guy who got stonewalled by everyone involved wanted to bleed a couple more clicks so he editorialized it to try and get people to draw the conclusions that the NCAA didn't find, and he can't actually claim. If the NCAA actually thought Pastner lied to them they'd have claimed so and this guy would be reporting on it half a year after the news broke. [/QUOTE]
