Re: Shoe money trial
I can't go back in time and take the joy out of watching those games but now at this moment, yea, for sure. There's a black eye. If it's found out that those involved at Kansas were responsible with getting him and his people tens of thousands of dollars, then absolutely, it's not as good a season....

Re: The top 100 (and one) best players for the 2018-19 season
Eh, I think Grimes will be really good. Much closer to Josh Jackson than Kelly Oubre. Freshman Henry or Rush, but a better ballhandler/passer, seems right.
I think Doke will be more impactful than his ranking says. I also think he'd go for like 26/10 for a lot of other schools.

Re: Shoe money trial
We've had this argument. Unfortunately (fortunately) Vega deleted that massive thread. I don't want the focus of college basketball athletes to be contracts, deals, endorsements. And it doesn't need to be. Fans follow schools not individual players. We don't need the top 50 players every year to st...

Re: Shoe money trial
Nike and Adidas sre investing in the opportunity to represent these kids omce they go pro. Very little has to do with college choice. Its all about hetting the hooks in early in pitential profit cows. I don't know about that. The Adidas guy said "what's best for Adidas" is these top Adida...

Re: Shoe money trial
I know you struggle with it. We just don't see things the same way. I prefer to keep money out of college basketball as best we can and you don't care. Again, you'd prefer KC Phogushers and i'd prefer Western Hutchinson's CC Birds. Ok. So college basketball should be more accessible for rich kids t...

Re: Shoe money trial
No absolutely not....but I also think Duke may not have a coach talking about it explicitly in a text like dumbass KT. Maybe, maybe not. Certainly were I a defendant in one of these cases, I'd fight like hell to introduce evidence of a bidding war (in that, if there's a bidding war, then there's no...

Re: Shoe money trial
No doubt. There definitely are. I just mean that K and Roy wouldn't be coming out making these bold statements if they thought there was a chance they'd have a text message out there like Selfs or KTs....otherwise they're going to look foolish if they're saying this and there is evidence that they ...

Re: Shoe money trial
I would be fine with this as well as long as the player wasn't getting paid ( or immediately paid ) and wasn't working with an agent during the school year. In your opinion, should Kyler Murray not be allowed to play football for Oklahoma this year? Should the player allowed to have received a draf...

Re: Shoe money trial
But seriously, those guys are just setting the stage for what's to come. They must know they're not going to pop up on a stupid text message string. Nike probably just does this better than Adidas (like everything else). So they're just preemptively setting the narrative that they didn't know becau...

Re: Pre-season Big12 awards
I would bet on both these things happening:
1. Doke will have a much better year; and
2. Konate will have a highlight block on Doke.

Re: Shoe money trial
Eliminate it, and/or look to hockey for an example of how a player can be drafted (and his rights retained) but still develop in college.
