Blaylock is worthless. Horribly overrated. Stinson will be decent in the NBA, because that's his game. Too bad he's a bitch and his NBA teammates will probably kill him before the All-Star break.

read the story. I post the link to the actual story. And NO, not every school uses them, in fact, few do.

And yes, a ton of schools use scheduling services. And the 125K for the three teams in the tournament is right in line for lower mid major teams... about 40-45K per team. The money ISU paid for those match-ups is no different than any team pays to bring in pre-season opponents. This story will fade away, or in the least ISU will be cleared. Quote me on it. |

And though few teams nationwide use outside help to schedule games, D1 Scheduling has turned a business without a market into a profit of at least $150,000 since August 2004. "I can't imagine an athletics director would want a third party doing the scheduling," said the NABC's Haney.

Did D1 rip off the small schools? Sure. Is it illegal or in violation of rules? No. And schools use scheduling services. I don't care what the guy in the article says. Anyone that follows college sports closely understands that. |

you have to learn to read. if they are sending players along from LACC for that profit - i.e. the schools are taking a lower school fee to do these guarntee games - then they are essentially PAYING for players. I understand the glass is half full stuff, but come on. Oh, barry bonds never took steroids either.

In my 50 years of watching college sports I've never heard of a scheduling service. What, one school's AD can't call another schools AD? Very suspicous to me.

Can ADs exchange phone calls? Sure they can (actually coaches normally do that work, then get approval from the AD). But it's often easier to go through an agent that has a list of teams, and can match dates and wants. I was being hyperbolic when I said every team uses them, but a lot of teams do. Local media has already torn this story to shreds. This is not going to stick to ISU. |

ISU didn't do anything wrong and these allegations won't stick.
But this, combined with the disappointing season and the departures of Stinson and Blaylock WILL end up costing Morgan his job. |
