    Payments to advisors. Financial advisors in some cases were prepaying third parties that would give the money to recruits or family members. Adidas would pay the advisors later for their services. You cannot hide that amount money under entertainment without raising eyebrows.

    How did you come to the conclusion of "lawyering up" out of that article?

    Sorry it is reach to think the third will be a team of attorneys and investigators to deal with FBI and NCAA. May be an ISO9000 or six sigma compliance team.

    Brian Bowen just committed to Frank Martin and the Gamecocks. He was the Louisville recruit who's father "allegedly" accepted $100K to steer his son to the Cardinals.

    Word. We need the help and Frank will be a beacon on his straight and narrow path to righteousness.

    Seems this turned out different than expected for USC

    Care to bring this back up now that Clemson and Blossingame have been named in the FBI's investigation? Does the pot/kettle thing or glass houses fit better here?

    I think the whole payment app thing is going to be a big deal in recruiting violations. I always assumed people used the prepaid visa cards.

    Not really
    Them that don't know him won't like him, and them that do sometimes won't know how to take him

    He ain't wrong, he's just different, and his pride won't let him do things to make you think he's right

    I have to agree. If y'all didn't already know most if not all schools payed to get players then I don't know what to tell you.
    I'll be following this just to see what happens to the big boys of college hoops. UNC, Duke, and the Kentuckys of the world.
