I guess UK fans take it while they can. Because probation's a coming. It's inevitable.

Exactly. Calipari has no shame. He is my favorite CB coach, and he is a very good college coach, his system works great, but the probabtion is a coming.

For christ sake, he recruited a guy that had been playing professional ball in Turkey for like three years. LOL. And you know what I am willing to guess that because of his rep now, he might not have to do some of things he has done in the past. Kids know that he gets guys drafted high, and know they improve them.

Like this Knight kid, you would have to think that Brandon knows that if he goes to KY, he is gonna end up a top three pick next year, comparing where if he goes somewhere else he might fall a couple spots, that is probably enough incentive to go to KY alone, and not have to do a pay to play scheme.

Unfortunately though, because KY is now a one and done factory, it will be hard to win the title, CBB is very tough, and teams that know each other ultimately play better together.

alright, I will educate you guys 1 more time.....

Umass - Camby took $ from an agent over the summer, Cal cleared.
Memphis - NCAA told them 2x that Rose was cleared to play, only to go back after the season and say he was ineligible. Cal cleared.
UK - Kanter did play for a pro club team in Turkey. The NCAA has ruled that he received $33,033 more than would have been allowed for a US kid playing at a prep school. These monies cover room and board, travel, meals, etc..
There is a good chance that they can win the appeal based on meeting certain criteria.

Last year's team was a fluke in the number of FR going pro. Maybe 2 guys from this year's team, but that will happen when you go after the best as long as the NBA makes them go to 'school' for a year.

agreed that CBB is different and it will be a few years before he sniffs a championship game at UK.

Educate me all you want, still doesn't change the fact that he walks the grey line very well.

I love him as a coach, and from all accounts he is a good person, and I have followed his teams since UMass, and have bet on his teams to win the National Title (when I knew Derrick Rose was unstoppable and he ended up going there)

33k more? Why even waste time recruiting the kid, he knew he was gonna end up ineligible, and they aren't winning the appeal. Winning an appeal against the NCAA is like a trainer trying to win an appeal vs the racing board. Not happening.

Real good night for CBB....

Michigan State vs UConn
Duke vs KState
Washington vs Kentucky

Michigan State wins, I think Washington exposes Kentucky as sloppy. Kentucky has tons of talent but will come together later in the year

KState has a hell of a chance to beat Duke
