Scandal Tracker...

There are lots of scandals going on in college basketball, and really only the big ones and the ones being ignored by NCAA and being swept under the rug by the schools are of interest.

We just can't talk scandal without starting with USC...
they've been one of the dirtiest programs for decades but always get a pass from NCAA.
But info about the massive freebies given to Reggie Bush and the corrupt way in which he (and his family) were allowed to live openly in mansions and expensive apartments and given upwards of $300,000 in extra benefits, should have sure been caught and penalized by NCAA, right?
Not quite -- for years NCAA pretended it did not exist...then when faced with numerous nationally published and well researched and proven articles by YahooSports, then NCAA finally and reluctantly said they'd look into it...
Well, that was more than 3 years ago -- and still nothing......
Then the whole thing was compounded when numerous people testified that OJ Mayo was also getting paid off and tons of freebies....and there were even eyewitnesses saying they saw money being given to coach Tim Floyd and the payoffs going to OJ.

Oh well...the NCAA says it has concluded its investigation, but still nothing...and even if they do act, they'll impose a laughably soft pseudo-penalty like the did at Indiana...but the scandal rolls on..........now Tim Floyd gets a new gig..
he gets hired at UTEP and announces he didn't cheat at USC and that he left there because they didn't support him...

It'll be interesting, but I am certain all these cheaters will get off either scott free or really easy!



Then we move to the ticket selling, corruption and scandal at Kansas that definitely seems to involve Bill Self -- or at least he had to know about it...
So far, NCAA is looking the other way but the feds aren't - they know this is crooked and people are raking in cash with illegal sales of tickets that don't belong to them and they are not paying taxes and they are defrauding the government!!
Kansas may get nailed by the feds...but the NCAA will ignore the whole thing and the corruption.....
Kansas has already gotten rid of one guy (Assistant AD and Chief Fund Raiser)and most of the evidence...they are already learning from IU and USC on how to hide the facts, get rid of a scapegoat and then avoid NCAA penalties.

Then there's scandal brewing at Wisconsin-Milwaukee..but everyone is silent!
Their AD has also been canned unceremoniously...and nobody's talking and everyone is running for cover. Look for this one to run deeper than everyone thinks......the whole thing just smells dirty...

Even their own fans expect much worse revelations and know a whole lot is being hidden...

well, that's all I have time for.......more scandals at a future time..this is way too many already......
Had any of this stuff happened at Bradley, there wouldn't have been enough runways at our airport to handle all the traffic of NCAA investigators plying to Peoria to dig and find smut to penalize BU for and for all the media people who would be labeling BU a renegade program!!!
