Some would say there's not enough money in the world....

 

We have/had our own little scandal when we regrettably brought on a Calipari disciple.  I still don't think that NCAA investigation is wrapped up, maybe it has.  I'm not even sure what it was about.  All I know if people 'round these parts were upset that we couldn't even cheat well.

FBI wiretaps intercepted telephone conversations between Arizona coach Sean Miller and Christian Dawkins, a key figure in the FBI's investigation into college basketball corruption, in which Miller discussed paying $100,000 to ensure star freshman DeAndre Ayton signed with the Wildcats, sources familiar with the government's evidence told ESPN.

If Sean Miller is found to have violated NCAA rules, not only would he lose his job, but, per his contract, he’d have to pay Arizona up to $300,000 in damages related to the case

The fbi has exposed college basketballs biggest not so secret dark side in that coaches and school have been paying players for decades and the NCAA has done nothing about it. This will go to college football next and will probably be the end of the non revenue sports once schools start paying players as a school employee.

Lol I would even suggest that we might have gone overboard to make it really safe to say that possibly no one related to the mens basketball team is getting paid.

Paying players won't stop this, greed is greed.  The are plenty of rich people that do questionable things just to get more money.
