Time to Clean house at Little John

Just heard we had a staffer on tape talking about illegal benefits to players. Everyone in the Men's Basketball dept needs to be fired. Right Now.

Illegal benefits are nothing new to college basketball. Talking about it is one thing, actually offering them is something totally different.

I just heard that somebody at your place of work got caught [INSERT ILLEGAL ACTIVITY HERE].
Everyone needs to be fired (including YOU).
How about it, still sound like a good idea?
You might want to think it over.

Yes I agree something needs to change in basketball we need to remember most of us are at best armchair quarterback and coach and we need to not be vocal to the point we cause embarrassment on our forums when even recruits read them. Most of us are disappointed, but support not tear down our integrity as a fan base. We sound like coots and others when we fire off at the mouth like that. The Ad has done fairly well so let the process play out while being a positive influence on the forums.

So if this had been a graduate assistant on the football team, you think every football coach should be fired. Okay.

Okay. If our quarterbacks coach had done this, all football coaches should be fired. That is his premise. I disagree with it.

The assumption would be that no one else knew about it and it was a bad apple that went rogue. You know, sort of how our fans should be viewing the basketball situation, but aren't.

Actually this incident could turn out to be a good thing for football and basketball. As long as nothing else is discovered it will be an indication of how clean our program is but there was just one rogue coach.
He was cheating with the illegal contact.
He was considering more cheating with potentially looking for money.
He lost the trust of his boss with the above and his efforts to hide it.
He lost the trust of the fans when he did all of the above and topped it off with insinuating that football did the same with no real evidence.
Honestly with what I've seen it reinforces the idea that we don't cheat. If football had an open check book for kids then basketball would too. Obviously basketball didn't because he over compensated when trying to hide the illegal contact from Brad. If Brad was to ever get a green light to buy a player it would have been Zion. An all time elite kid 30 minutes down the road. But he didn't.
