Chemhawk, you want the KSU playbook?  Run Bill to some nowheresville school, mock him while he makes his transition, hire Matt Doherty, and recruit a bunch of valley kids. 


Your welcome.

Step 1: Get everyone in the media to say "I don't really see how ku can be at fault in any way on this one".

Step 2: Distance yourself from the money

Step 3: Play dumb: "we had no idea this was going on"

Step 4: Get off with no repercussions

Step 5: Recruit next NBA talent and repeat

Excellent breakdown CartierFor3.

Again kids, if an athletic department can keep the NCAA from investigating a multi-million dollar basketball ticket scalping scheme that ultimately sent 4 athletic department employees to Federal Prison.    Then they're not worried about this thing at all.

The NCAA is protecting the top basketball schools more than ever, their ruling on UNC and Duke are laughable.

Larry Brown's School of Cheating

(Coach finds recruit) ----> (Coach tells agent) ----> (Agent Pays AAU coach to steer recruit) ----> (Recruit plays for Coach becomes NBA talent) ----> (Coach steers player to Agent) ----> (Repeat)

Calipari, Self and Brown have been doing this for ever. It is just so effing brilliant.

Yea why do it yourself when you can subcontract the labor and not be liable at the same time?  Fantastic business moves.

Could someone explain the logic in punishing KU for a shady AAU coach taking money from a third party agent?

embrace the fact that your school pays players, beems.  embrace it and rub it in our faces.

[CNS]

Beems is taking the absolutely correct stance on this.

Could someone explain the logic in punishing KU for a shady AAU coach taking money from a third party agent?

Logically, the agent was paid and directed by someone at KU to steer the player to the Jayhawks.  Do you think this agent altruistically paid out of his own pocket to send McLemore to KU?  You (and KU) are smart enough to know the answer to that, but plausible deniability is the best way to handle this.

The NCAA nuked USC football because a third party wannabe NFL agent with zero affiliation to USC bribed Reggie Bush while he was playing for the Trojans to convince him to become his client when Bush entered the NFL.  That did not benefit USC whatsoever and none of Bush's improper benefits came from USC/anyone connected to USC, and they still received a huge punishment.  NCAA logic is hit and miss and very inconsistent, but if they can harshly punish a school for something that didn't help them and was proven to not be connected to the school they can certainly punish a school that bought a player.

The AAU coach was paid to steer McLemore to the agent.  KU and McLemore weren't even involved.

The NCAA doesn't care about players that suck ballsacks and taints.
