Damn, and UNC fans were so bummed out that UK got Knox. I'm much happier now with Cam Walker...

Knox is going to have a knock against him doing pro that he's lazy

Knox doesn't like playing with Diallo. Ball hog. Won't pass to him. Notice that UK had a 4 pt lead with Diallo on the bench. Insert Diallo. Wild 3 pointer that clanks, Auburn scores. Diallo turns the ball over. Auburn takes lead... Game over. Until Calipari quits trying to promote Diallo's game to the NBA, UK will continue to lose. Calipari's ego would take a monumental hit if no one was a first round draft pic this spring.

well it wasn't a wild 3 pointer but there is no arguing Diallo played a major role in killing our momentum

Yesterday, ESPN’s Mark Schlabach cited a source that said as many as 36 Division I programs could face NCAA violations for what’s come to light in the FBI’s investigation into college basketball. Now, Yahoo’s Pete Thamel is upping that number to 50, citing multiple sources that say Hall of Fame coaches, the sport’s top programs, and lottery picks are all at risk.

Multiple sources who’ve been briefed on the case and are familiar with the material obtained by feds told Yahoo Sports that the impact on the sport will be substantial and relentless. Sitting under protective order right now are the fruits of 330 days of monitoring activity by the feds, which one assistant US Attorney noted Thursday was “a voluminous amount of material.” That includes wiretaps from 4,000 intercepted calls and thousands of documents and bank records obtained from raids and confiscated computers, including those from notorious NBA agent Andy Miller.

“This goes a lot deeper in college basketball than four corrupt assistant coaches,” said a source who has been briefed on the details of the case. “When this all comes out, Hall of Fame coaches should be scared, lottery picks won’t be eligible to play and almost half of the 16 teams the NCAA showed on its initial NCAA tournament show this weekend should worry about their appearance being vacated.”

Well, Kentucky wasn’t one of the top 16 teams shown on this weekend’s preview nor do we have any likely lottery picks right now, so we’re cool, right?

Is Roy Williams a HOF coach?
Was UNC one of the 16?

Glad to see the FBI utilizing their resources to protect us from the evil athletes trying to make a dollar.

This is going to piss off Crotch:

Clay Travis crushes John Calipari: ‘He gets exposed when it comes to actual coaching’

Agree totally with Travis. If Cal doesn't have the top talent, he doesn't win. Always said he's an A- recruiter and a C- coach. Personally, I'm tired of the Calipari era. ( Yeah, I know eCat will disagree so go at it ) Time for a change at Kentucky. Calipari has worn out his welcome. Cue Billy Donovan.

I won't argue that he isn't a great bench coach

I guess we now know why UK wanted to be bitches and back out of the series again.

You've got a team full of supposedly superstars and lottery picks and no less than the 2nd ranked recruiting class for the past 3 years and you make the statement that 'IF WE COULD ONLY WIN ONE'. Give me a break. This stuff is getting comical with Cal.

Just imagine what Roy Williams could do with that type of talent if he could do all of this with three and four star talent with a couple of fringe five stars mixed into the mix....

Cal has morphed into Gottfried

Looks as if Dave was right all along about Cal..... I offer my apologies for doubting him.

Dave is an idiot savant. Or at least half that.

If DUke is named by the FBI all things will be right in the world, though maybe the FBI should have been more worried about the wacko in Florida.
