I would imagine the top 15-25 are all paid various amounts

It would be naive to think otherwise. It’s not just Duke, it’s all of the top programs. I don’t think the head coaches are intimately involved, but I assume they know and just turn blind eyes. It’s very easy to funnel it all through bag men and claim innocence. College basketball recruiting is an absolute cess pool.


They absolutely know

But have done a good job (except Self at Kansas) to put enough layers between themselves and the bag men to claim innocence and let other people be fall guys.

They aren't dumb, but they absolutely are involved, just in a way that makes it easy to distance when it goes bad.

Self is going to get hammered though.


Yeah, the family had a lot of buffers. *

I hope you're right but I have no faith in the shitshow that is the NCAA. Also I thought if anyone was screwed it was Archie Miller?


I think Archie

Will eventually get toppled.

The NCAA allegations against KU are no joke. I know people don't love the NCAA, and they are wildly inconsistent. But the notice of allegations and information is going to be tough to overcome, they are suggesting a show cause for Self. That's not f'ing around type stuff, even for the NCAA.


Archie Miller more likely to be toppled than Sean? *

Whatever happened to all that Arizona stuff? It seemed like pretty solid and damning evidence.


Exactly right, what happened? Miller was literally saying

Goodbye to fans at end of the 18-19 season. He knew he was screwed and then he wakes up and eh everything's okay guys were still making millions! NCAA is a farce.


I think it's much more than 15-25 *

Maybe I'm being naive now, but I don't think the boosters are paying someone ranked, say 47th. I imagine the only ones worth paying are the future lottery picks or guys you know could single-handedly boost you to a Final Four. Past the top 25 or so, no one really sees prospects as those.
