School like Duke and Carolina do not need to have players funneled to them. Granted, Carolina's recruiting has been down since one rogue administrator and one rogue professor tried to bring the Women's Basketball Team and Football team down and several men's basketball players were accidentally enrolled in those courses but even during that time they've recruited well enough to go to back to back National Championships and win the last one.
A guy like the one Louisville just payed $100,000 to get? Maybe he gets 10-15 minutes at Carolina by his Junior year, if his defense develops.
Shut the fuck up. Oh lord, this is always my least favorite part of any NCAA scandal - the tribal "my school is clean" reaction from fans who create all sorts of provisos about why their team is clean, while everyone else - especially their rivals - are dirty, dirty cheaters. If there was any wrongdoing at ______ it was some rogue ____ who did bad things without the knowledge or approval of the minor deity who leads the best program in the country, by god!
Shut. The. Fuck. Up.
I want to be clear, this isn't just aimed at you. Despite having him on ignore, I KNOW that Duke Sox has already been here, doing his "poor oppressed Dookies" routine and lamenting that they'd have more national championships if everyone else couldn't cheat and Coach K could compete on a level playing field. (How'd I do? Hit all the talking points, or did I miss one?)
EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THESE PROGRAMS/COACHES IS "CHEATING". Not one of them is above it. They are ALL taking money from the shoe companies and participating in this scheme. Louisville and Ricky P were particularly blatant and obvious about it? What a surprise.
These "college" programs are all dirty as PigPen in a barnyard. Not one of them is "clean". They are all exploiting "student-athletes" and they all do shady shit - pay recruits, no-work academics, etc. "Your" program is cheating, is run by cheaters, and has to cheat in order to compete with the other cheaters.
I'm in Kentucky on business right now and oh boy the UK fans are loving this.*
*Until they get nailed too.
Yuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuup.
You should tell them to enjoy it, as the FBI will be accessing the FedEx records soon and we all know how UK likes to conduct its shady business by package delivery.
