Time to investigate college athlete's wedding presents. Bet there gifts from alumni and boosters there, too. Start with Colin Klein.

Actually, we do. Ignorance is no excuse. If the story was different like Ben getting 100k from a booster to stay, we would be liable if we played him. Everyone would claim ignorance if it were allowed.


That said its weird here because KU didn't benefit. So I'm not seeing the problem here

Doyel covers it pretty well.

The thing I'm taking away from this is that it's a Mizzou/K-State Wet Dream. They have hoped/prayed/sacrificed their first born children in hopes that they'd see KU go down big time. This isn't it. The idea that KU would be complicit in some sort of Alex Jones' conspiracy to get a KU player to an agent is absolutely absurd. KU will be fine. EMAW fans can fap their hearts out (what's new?). Some things won't change. KU will out-recruit, out-play, and out-title every team in the conference in basketball. Bet.

[Mojo Jojo]

The biggest problems for KU is that Blackstock was using McLemore's tickets to games starting in February...KU should have been asking who is this guy and why are you giving him free tickets. Also Blackstock paying for Ben's birthday party/dinner is a big no-no.

Their biggest dream died after Arthur's case wasn't pursued by the NCAA.

[KC_Connection]

Yeah...don't care.

NCAA cleared Arthur before he ever showed up on campus. Whatever failures there were in that process point right back at the NCAA.

Obviously. Didn't stop Blair Jerkoff from running the story for two months and continually asking if KU would lose it's title. Such a foolish idiot.

If you want something bad enough, you can make it a reality in your own mind.

[BourbonMan]

As much as I hate KU...This is totally STUPID and BULLSHIT.
