DOJ claim: Adidas exec Gatto conspired w/coaches at Adidas-sponsored schools to pay HS players to go to their schools & sign w/adidas in NBA.

Per Rumble in the Garden:
Brad Augustine mention? The 1Family AAU director? Nassir Little's AAU?

Federal law-enforcement officials are expected to arrest at least a half-dozen people and unseal charges Tuesday as part of a wide-ranging investigation into alleged bribery and kickback schemes at several of the country’s top-tier college basketball programs, people familiar with the matter said.

Investigators have been looking at whether coaches at these schools have been paid by outside entities—such as financial advisers, agents, and apparel companies—in exchange for pressuring players to associate with those entities, people familiar with the investigation said. Executives at at least one apparel company are expected to be among those arrested, a person familiar with the matter said.

The investigation is being led by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Manhattan U.S. Attorney’s office.

Broadly, the investigation has shed light on the highly competitive recruiting pipeline that brings elite high-school basketball players through Division I college programs and into the professional leagues, and the role played by assistant coaches in that process, the people said.

Corruption scheme? I can't wait to see some details on this. FBI is not some local operation. Sounds like some rocks are being overturned in the NCAA basketball world. I want to see what snakes come crawling out.

Jim Gatto, one of the Adidas' head basketball honchos, being arrested is huge news. Could mean some big names in college are about to drop.

Expect a lot of Fed pressure on assistants to take this up the ladder. All about turning folks.
 
There should be huge sanctions/penalties imposed on those schools involved, but the NCAA is as corrupt as any governing body so slaps on the wrist are more likely!!!

Cleveland St. will get the brunt of it.
 
As long as we’re good it’s whatever. Still waiting on the shoe to drop on LSU and UNC.

In fact this could benefit us if some recruits re-opens their commitments.

The worst part is players will continue to play, schools will be rewarded and it will take years to sort out. By the time its over they will have banned a few guys and several more will be retired. Players will be happily in the NBA.

Hey, this reminds me, what ever happened to the North Carolina no show to classes scandal? Any penalties? Where does that stand?? :whistle:

National Champs and a shared Amex Black for the crew running the NCAA to use in Monaco on one of their fleet of private jets (not an exaggeration even the Monaco part).
 
D: Rawle Alkins anyone

Are you suggesting that it wasn't for the love of the desert or the dislike of the mean streets of Jamaica Estates that helped get these players away from us?? :eek:hmy: I can't believe it. :lol:
