:surprised:
Rumors that Davis’ commitment is for sale have surfaced since he cut his list of schools down about a month ago.
“There is all kinds of speculation and innuendo out there in the recruiting world regarding his recruitment and if it is going to turn seedy,” recruiting analyst Joe Henricksen said. “But that’s often the route that this story takes when you see a player emerge like this. Who knows what’s true and what’s not.”
The rumors/sources that have Davis choosing Kentucky are also alleging that the commitment cost $200,000.
Davis Sr. has flat out denied everything.

Let's get a paypal account going and see if we can pool our money and get this kid. Throw in a premium subscription and he's a lock for K-State. :cheers:
Remember how in that documentary "Hoop Dreams" kids were just happy to get a schollie and maybe an under the table pair of shoes. Those were the good old days. Now if you don't have a nice car to offer and a few get out of jail free cards (See KU) you won't land anyone.

Not impressed with the lawyer:
... neither the University of Kentucky nor any member of its athletic department has offered or paid any money or other illegal benefits ....
Sort of gives the game away right there: it was the boosters who paid. :users:

Of course the cooler would be added and if it makes you feel better your worth at least $100k in my book. (I couldn't say $200K cause you can't dunk and do sweet basketball stuff, sorry.)

So...the guy who wrote this story (and his editor) knew that he (and probably his editor) would be fired if his story contained incredibly controversial claims that he couldn't support with evidence, right? And if the University of Kentucky knows that the rumors are false and cannot be substantiated by the writer, they have no reason to dangle a carrot in front of the newspaper in the form of a "we probably won't sue if you remove the article" offer, right? They would just say, "This is not true, and we're going to sue you, but you'd better remove the article so we don't sue you quite as hard," right? OK...just wanted to see if everything was as obvious as it seems.
