Sad when the Urinal World feels a need to throw people under the bus but let's be honest here, accountability needs to be addressed in what is and isn't transpiring.

The University of Kansas, the Chancellor, Compliance Department, Athletic Department, "Athletics Inc.", Basketball Program, should all be "elite".
We have a semi new Chancellor and a new Athletic Director.
They came in to a mess that perhaps they were not really prepared for? I don't really know but it sure seems this definitely has the potential to get ugly and I'm not convinced we are/have been properly advised by those who need to be and should be advising us. I get that what is and isn't being made public could very well be on what they feel is a "need to know" basis but there has been a lack of transparency and I wonder if that's partially because the people involved don't really know what the fuck they're doing.
What if any other changes need to be made, have been made, are being made, can be made?
I don’t think there’s really all that much of a mystery here. Athletics is simply not incentivized to investigate itself. As annoying as it is, the safest path is for Athletics to just ride this out.

To feel that there’s some sort of moral imperative for the university to DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS is to feel that that’s something morally wrong with players getting money, and/or something morally right about preserving a system designed to keep money from getting to the players.

I of course do not feel there is any such moral imperative.

It appears our coaches don't either.

The ncaa will get their pound of our flesh. No matter what we do or don’t do. Don’t worry about that.

I don’t think that’s quite right. What we do very certainly matters. And what we’re doing amounts to self-imposing a permanent ban on Preston, and a ban of at least a season on De Sousa.

We're doing exactly what they've asked schools to do. In fact, we are doing/have done more to self impose punishment than pretty much anywhere else. That's not on accident and it's not going to go unnoticed/unmentioned when dealing with the NCAA.

One would hope that, and it sounds reasonable, but when did anyone ever accuse the NCAA of being reasonable?

Well, never. But whether you agree or disagree (and there’s a big part of me that would be very supportive of Bill giving a middle finger to the whole damn thing), the path we’re taking is ultra-conservative.

I would hope that it isn't sitting out a season for $2500...even the most ultra-conservative approach would say that is too much.

We’re tangled up in the mans net. Happens from time to time. We will take our medicine and move on.
