Isn't KU the victim (along with donors) in this scandal? From a general standpoint, I'm trying to grasp why KU would be punished for the actions of a rogue employee(s)?

:surprised:

LMAO, every school should use that excuse when rogue employees are funneling money to their athletes.  IT'S BULLETPROOF!

pfft, I have already started this.  I have a template post that will be available to drop on any thread if KSU ever gets caught doing this.  Delonte paid Beaz?  BOOM, I drop my template like and EMAW "junk shot" to plug the gushing hater accusations.

I am revolutionizing bbs'ing dudes.

Yahoo stopped the story in 2003 because that's when the Freeman part ended.  But the writers absolutely believe it continued for the next 7 years.  Millions of dollars.  Not looking good for Bill Self.

 :surprised:

goEMAW chat for this?

Live streaming usually sucks at work for me, so I'm gonna need something.  Also will be doing a pre-trial conference by phone simultaneously.

Yeah, I won't be able to get the video to come up either.  Someone needs to do chat play by play for this.

5 former Assistant Directors(I assume the report directly to Lew given their titles) are caught up in this.

No way Lew keeps his job.  No way.

Forensic accountants calculated the face value of the ticket losses to total at least $1.03 million, from 2005 to 2010

Lew looks cool as a cucumber in the press conference.  Yucking it up with the media in attendance.
