LOFL!  The guy got flamed into taking it down  :lol:  What a pussy.  You gotta stick to your guns.

Reminds me of the vladimich (sp) story about Walker from the aol sports site.  "Darth Husker" has nothing on some of these guys. 

If you read the guy who wrote the article's bio, he's a manager for Duqeusne basketball, so it's probably best for him to not write articles about top basketball recruits getting paid. Dude probably realized how screwed he is if anyone important reads it and deleted it.

Anyone have any guesses on who he talked to or did he just shoot from the hip and make it up?  I'm going to go with Ryan Patzwald and for no good reason whatsoever I bet I'm right.

I would guess "shoot from the hip", he also casually mentions terrelle pryor committing to ohio state, because they were the highest bidder. He's pretty clearly not the brightest bulb in the world.

Probably right but I'm sticking with Patz because if I'm right  :eek:  right?

    THE b IS NOT CAPITALIZED
lawls imo.
I'm telling you, this is not ANYTHING like the team from the beginning of conference play. You will see no more blowouts like what happened in OOC.  If we lose, it will not because these kids gave up, and it will be at the buzzer. -Rodless, before 97-70

You'd have to be the dumbest person alive to believe that people associated with Kansas State can afford to pay anyone 120K.

I am sure I was not the only one who found it more than just a little bit odd that Michael Beasley signed with Kansas State, one of the most out-of-nowhere programs for a top recruit ever.

Yes, his AAU coach-slash-godfather does coach there (who, by the way, is now the highest paid assistant in the country at 450K a year for five years), but there were a lot more reasons to go to Kansas State.

Talk to any number of people close to the story, and they will most likely tell you the now infamous fairy tale-type story of what Beasley received to play ball at Kansas State for six months.

Most likely unbelievable to the average sports fan, Beasley is rumored to have received up to 120K in cash, as well as brand new 2008 cars for himself and his mother, a house in Manhattan for his family to live in, and to top it all off, a job for his mother.

Is this the going rate for one NCAA Tournament win?  Our guys must have cost a fortune.

If you made me commit to a sinister behind the scenes mastermind who's pulling the puppet strings, then it's gotta be Dokish right? I mean he's still very clearly smarting from Mike not going to Pitt and wants revenge. Curse you Dokish :curse: :curse:

That's really a brilliant theory, and a great memory of Doke watch.  Also makes sense because of the Pryor/JOTS connection.  Hmm, dirty laundry involving two recruits that took a dump on Jamie Dixon?

Good work, cub!

Frackin' good work!  Much closer to Philly where this jerkstore resides.  Better connections.  When you think about it..it almost HAS to be right..right?

imo, this is probably what every crappy mid-major manager hears the SLH coaching staff whispering about in the office when the laundry is running.

Not to mention the high school teacher who destroyed his professional credibility and committed academic fraud.  Thats gotta be worth at least a few years pay for the guy, doesn't it?

Got to give Beasley props for being discrete a driving the four-year-old Tahoe or what not around campus. But damn, he should have broken the Benz out of the secret cave for Lat's visit.

No krap, just think how much better we would've been if we had cheated even a little.  Wisky would've had no chance & we wouldn't have lost to "O" or our rivals in our house.  I was so hopin' we'd have swept them in FB/MBB.
