That is how long these assistants can go to prison for! They are going to implicate anyone they can to save their own asses! Head coaches and athletic directors are going to go down. Addidas claims to know nothing? Then fire the CEO for fiscal mismanagement since there is a huge hole in that companies financial bucket! Lots of paper trails to follow! Ten schools is just the beginning!

There are about 150 athletic directors holding their breath right now.

I don't think there are that many money making programs in the country.

I've paid a great deal of attention to recruiting and have about 30-40 schools that I feel have participated in some shady recruiting. And none of the seven so far surprised me.

Do tell? Any Big 10 schools on that list?

Well, considering I think the ENTIRE SEC is cheating...the Big Ten doesn't come in too bad on my list. My opinion, Minnesota, Illinois is well on it's way to cheating, or was until yesterday, and MAYBE Maryland.

Since the FBI will have forensic investigators going over Addidas and Nikes books, will football be pulled in? I believe so!

Jay Bilas was on Mike&Mike this morning, and he's a lawyer as well as an analyst. He said those numbers are extremely inflated. He said they could possibly get ten years max per count, but that was highly unlikely, as the Justice Dept will plead most of this out, not being a huge priority vs bigger crimes. He said it was doubtful any of those coaches would do more then a year or two but its still fdederal prison, and of course their careers are over.

Indiana's coach now is the brother of the Arizona coach, correct? Not saying that he is guilty by association but if I were an FBI agent it might be worth a look.

This is an incredible opportunity for clean programs to start landing talent and making inroads to recruiting areas that they have been shut out of. SC and Arizona, e.g., dominated California. UCLA will benefit if clean. Big Ten teams might start to get the top players out of Chicago instead of Kansas, Memphis, Lville etc.

Great opportunity but must move quickly.

Paying players is barely a drop in adidas bucket
