Feds investigating ku comp tickets.

The concern now  for ku folks . . . were there any players involved with their comp'd tickets??

Trace that money back to the players and somebody could be winning a Pulitzer.

"The university has launched an internal investigation, sources said."

No prob...taken care of.



BTW, would love if this leads back to SamanthaRyRy and somehow gets real dirty.

Seems odd that one of the Morris kids wrote that article up for the Star.

Must admit, it was surprisingly lucid.

Not a surprise, and the timing totally expected.  Sometime this week, Cole Aldrich is going to be in Bill Self's office talking about the NBA, and the phrase "if you are still on campus, we might be able to keep you and your parents out of this investigation" is going to be spoken.

Skimming ticket revenue via unauthorized channels by ku employees has been going on a very long time, the only surprise is how long it took for it to get noticed.  Rumor is that Perkins began looking into it shortly after he took the AD job, which makes me wonder:
1.  Did he give up the hunt?
2.  Is what he found so damaging that the solution would be worse than the problem?
3.  Did Perkins find a deal he could not turn down?

First thing I wondered was how long had they been sitting on this story?  Anyone think this would have come out if they were still in the tournament?
Fifteen minutes later, when the Kansas locker room opened its doors to the media, the Jayhawks were still crying. Literally, bawling. All of them. I've never seen anything like it, and I've seen devastated college locker rooms -- after losses in the Final Four, the national championship game -- ever
