Schools identified by Yahoo! as having players who possibly violated NCAA rules include Duke, North Carolina, Texas, Kentucky, Michigan State, USC and Kansas. At least 25 players are linked to impermissible benefits, including Michigan State's Miles Bridges, Alabama's Collin Sexton and Duke's Wendell Carter.

At least six players were identified in the documents as receiving payments exceeding $10,000. They include Dallas Mavericks point guard Dennis Smith Jr., who received $73,500 in loans from ASM before he played for NC State; Brooklyn Nets shooting guard Isaiah Whitehead, who received more than $37,000 around the time he was a freshman at Seton Hall; and 2017 No. 1 NBA draft pick Markelle Fultz, who received $10,000.

Other teams with current or former players who allegedly received payments were South Carolina, Louisville, Utah, Xavier, Wichita State, Clemson and Alabama. Other players named include former LSU guard Tim Quarterman, former Maryland center Diamond Stone and former Kentucky center Edrice "Bam" Adebayo.

I doubt they do anything until after the tournament. This happened with the Cam Newton scandal the whole entire season when he played. 

  1. Make harsh penalties/bans for these schools. No more slap on the wrists 
  2. Get rid of the AAU and 7-on-7 culture. Just makes it much easier and pressing for schools to cheat. I hate how those teams outweigh their own high school teams anymore

Would not surprise me to see Steve Kerr, offered the job, after the NBA season is done. This is the UofA flagship program. 

With the new football coach hire, it may start to turn more towards football, down here.

 

GBR!!!

 

Why in the world Steve Kerr even think about going back to college even if Arizona is his alma mater? He is coach of the best team in the NBA.
