    Adios Adidas!

    this river runs deep….

    or it’s part of the obfuscation and coverup by our friends to the West…

    From Dan Wetzel’s article on Yahoo Sports, sounds like USC-East is in trouble as well:

    Also in the crossfire is so-called “University 2,” which in the complaints is described in a way that resembles the University of South Carolina and only the University of South Carolina – “a public research university located in South Carolina … with over 30,000 students …”

    ^in South Carolina, they probably do more research 90 miles to the west than in Columbia — we need to ask HighStick, he would know best….

    This ain’t good. Adidas school, former Louisville assistant coach…only 3 players named. If some of you guys have a memory like me and peruse on of tos. Oh well, nothing to do but wait. At least we can’t lose no banners.

    Sounds like Pitino and their AD have been relieved of their duties.

    Pitino’s gone. Looks ugly. Yesterday’s release is reportedly the tip of the iceberg. It’ll be interesting to see how deep and widespread it is. Just a few schools and one sport? Or?

    I think the “oversight” by the NCAA may have been a little lacking…

    I’m not sure if Keatts was at Louisville when this came down.

    This comes down right in time for a UNC wrist slap. Brilliant

    Possible link between this scandal and unx Martin Blazer.

    This is bigger than anyone, except the tinfoil hat guys, could imagine….

    All sports, all levels, all schools ….

    And the joke is…

    #23, or his surrogate, ratted on Adidas….

    “Let he who had no sin, cast the first stone.”

    This, on the other hand, is simply prophetic…. In 2014, the Cardinals coach said….

    “I think we need to get shoe companies out of the lives of young athletes.” — Rick Patino….

    Pitino is going to jail.

    Maybe or maybe not but time will tell. Apparently he has been called out by the FBI. That might leave the NCAA in a tough spot – as they have basically done nothing about his previous issues (just hit the school after he left) they might have to rethink the whole scam (I mean scheme).

    Pitino has lied in his public statements and maybe to the FBI.

    OK… so the SleasySneakerGate questions were asked…

    “Where’s the crime? Who’s the Victim?”

    1. NBA’s One and Done Policy
    2. AAU Basketball
    3. Multi-Million dollar contracts for Head Coaches….

    more here from Carlton Tudor….

    Can’t say that I disagree….

    4. The “NCAA” as we know and love it….

    And the joke is…

    #23, or his surrogate, ratted on Adidas….

    Today… Media reports are stating that….

    1. The FBI has subpoenaed Nike employees.
    2. The FBI raided NBA offices and took computers…
    3. Patino is referred to as “Coach2” in the FBI indictment… Anybody know who Coach #1 is?

    This river runs deep and wide…

    Boys and girls, this won’t be good.

    What concerns me most is the bluest bloods haven’t got caught up in it.

    At this point, I just hope football is safe, because if you read the tea leaves basketball ain’t.

    chop…

    Mike + Nike + *NC === blue bloods up to their blue a##es…

    … and the Darker Blues didn’t let the BabyBlues get ahead by much, if any at all….

    And if I’m not mistaken… the NCAA log is predominately BLUE…

    Just a matter of time.

    Burn it all down and use real students. So sick of the one sided BS application of the rules anyway. The whole thing is a farce. No wonder these fools think they deserve to get paid, they just want a raise!

    All the coaches, AD’s, insiders, reporters or anyone who knew this crap went on and have said nothing forever are just as guilty IMO. That includes the sanctimonious announcers (Bilas etc).

    I hope it all blows up. Tear down the NCAA too for that matter, its a joke.

    As mentioned earlier I wonder who “coach 1” is. This is not good at all for the NCAA or for the implicated schools (and likely some other schools). The sad thing is when all is said and done Baller brand shoes might be the only one left.

    For awhile, it looked like we would get Bowen. We are an adidas school. Bowen is likely the “unnamed” player. I wonder if adidas was trying to swing it our way and we baled? Just something to think about – kid ends up in another adidas school.

    Of course, they would shut down our program for giving a kid a stick of gum. But hundreds of kids can sign up for fake classes…….also interesting the ties of the agent to UNX football.
