He absolutely knew what was going on, just like he kept the Morris boys out of jail more than once.

And plus, if it was about fairness we shouldn't allow schools to have hundred million dollar facilities either. All schools should have the same facilities and there should also be a cap on how much coaches earn, etc. And players would still have to report it as income and get taxed by the government so why should they get taxed by the NCAA also?

There's plausible deniability, but, maaaaannn... It sure doesn't look good. I think it does look pretty good for KU that Billy never played and that Deandre went to 'Zona, where we know for a fact he got paid $100k.

Kansas has way more wealthy boosters than say - College of Charelston or something.

So stating obvious facts is being a hater? Whether they can actually prove beyond a reasonable doubt is not clear, but it's obvious to anyone who isn't a complete homer that a lot of shady and likely illegal (against NCAA rules) activities have been going on at a number of NCAA schools, including Kansas. You don't have to be a hater to know that Kansas has a long history of breaking the rules and getting away with it.

There's no smoking gun here. Self and the other coaches can still easily maintain plausible deniability. KU will be fine.
But yeah, of course Self knows. All the coaches at this program (and all the programs) know how this game is played and all have no problem reaping the benefits of it. Such is NCAA D1 basketball. |

It's kinda like them trying to put a square peg in a round hole. They know it will work if they can trim the edges but finally realize they don't have the tools to do it and want to bitch about it.

I think anyone that follows the sport should be aware that this is how it works. And that's everywhere. High level players have a price. Coaches like Self can avoid any direct negotiations and allow the shoe reps to handle the dirty work. Only desperate idiots like Sean Miller or small-timers facilitate anything themselves.
I'm sure some of these coaches don't approve of this. But the alternative is watching Kentucky and Duke get every high profile recruit (which they basically do anyway). Then termination for not keeping up. Catch-22. What cracks me up are the holier than thou moron fans of schools like Kentucky who actually believe their players aren't paid. |
