Kansas Crimson

Really who initiated, or more importantly has the evidence to show whether paying players was an adidas or a KU idea. Whoever has that is has the leverage.

Even more refreshing when Coach K came out and said that his program never EVER would do something like that. I wonder what is going on behind the scenes with adidas and KU. Fish paints an interesting picture about adidas holding leverage over our heads. I would find it hard to cut ties with the thr...

If anything this had better be a clear wake up call to the mens coaching staff that they all better get Nextel chirp phones, burner phones and a Hilary Clinton style email server. I imagine the mens basketball office right now like the scene from the movie Argo when the Iranian activists are heading...

Now that he got released by the Raiders do the Chiefs consider him?

Before EB got hurt his ability to range from sideline to sideline was unmatched unless your name was Earl Thomas. But to your point he completely took Gronk out of the game two years ago. A lot of this is based on a what if scenario because I have zero idea where he is at from a football shape. Blow...

IF, and I mean IF he does come back by November that would be a BEST, hell maybe even a dream scenario for the Chiefs. Give me a healthy EB for the stretch run. Still doesn't solve the ILB problem. Both of them have been very inconsistent. Corners are okay and with a healthy EB they will be fine. Ju...

I would guess that most members on this board are not naive enough to think that KU is clean. They do things that are bordering or could be all the way against the rules. Now...IMO KU is fine because Gassnova can't recall what they were talking about and they had no wire tap. I'm guessing that a goo...

All valid points. The difference was that NE did just enough in the first half to rattle and confuse Mahomes which gave Brady the opportunity to capitalize. I am fully in the camp that there is other things that Sutton could be doing to make this defense look better. Some of the stuff he does is hea...

The defense you see now is what it is going to be for the rest of the season unless they fire Sutton (not likely) or make a move before the deadline (who I don't know but that seems more likely with every win). That defense doesn't need to be the Steel Curtain. Just be competent. That is it. At some...

Thanks for the update.

I was told, over and over that Preston and his family were shady. That about reassures that.

I wonder what that means by “talking about recruits.” That is such a vague statement.

Jesuits. Fucking Jesuits. Hahaha this is more for you, NewtonHawk but if Bethel College is mentioned in this trial the scandal has come full circle. In all seriousness throughout this whole trial just about every major D1 school is going to get mentioned at some point and time and if they aren’t if...

Brian Bowen Sr was on the stand this afternoon dropping dimes left and right. This is shaping out like a real life version of Blue Chips.
But I'm not surprised by any of these allegations.

Sounds like JRE could be making a decision in the early November signing period.

Jalen is a physical press guy but one on one he doesn't want any parts of Hill. I don't believe there is any corner in the league that can match up with Hill's speed. Most likely Jalen and Hill won't be matched up that often. With the way the Chiefs move Hill around he is very rarely the X WR. Don't...

I saw MNF did a flash to EB on the sidelines. Wearing a hat, coaches jacket and was taking notes. I was thinking to myself we have the most expensive secondary coach in league history. Part of what is so frustrating to me and what I can't figure out is how many busted coverages the secondary has and...

"Reading more about this damn near every major D1 school has been mentioned in some way or the other." Right: On Wednesday, Sood also acknowledged during cross-examination by Dawkins' attorney, Steve Haney, that he met with Pina and another man to discuss paying then-Kentucky forward Bam ...

Reading more about this damn near every major D1 school has been mentioned in some way or the other.
I don’t understand what the end goal of this trial is? To bring down the NCAA? To end the “shocking” practice of paying players? To make an even playing field?

1. They wouldn't. 2. Scratch my back I scratch yours type of deal. When SDS goes pro he works with an agent or financial planner that has ties to adidas or signs an outright endorsement deal with adidas. 3. Illy answered that one. 4. IMO a little bit of both. These types of activities have been goin...

Reading a Matt Tait article where he interview an attorney who specializes in cases like this. Scenarios as follows... 1. KU and SDS come out of this scotch clean 2. KU comes out clean but SDS is ruled ineligible (the Cam & Cecil Netwon rule) because his 'handler' admits he took the cash even th...

You do but if I was the NCAA I would choose wisely which battles and statements I want to make. Seemingly because this is a KU board the NCAA goes after KU. If KU is doing it then everybody else is...Duke, UNC, Kentucky, etc...does the NCAA have enough stones to completely overhaul college basketbal...
