Does that mean you can be sold? ;)
Just go for the gusto. Sell yourself to Mike and become a second class relic.

No I want them to feel every bit of anguish they are feeling. And not just basket ball... LACK OF INSTITUTIONAL CONTROL should mean sanctions in all sports if the NCAA has any sense of integrity

The attached article from Sports Illustrated is more critical of a particular institution than anything I have read in my life. That should provide them plenty of anguish. Despite my earlier post, I can't say that this is something that is not deserved. You reap what you sow.
Re: The Other Shoe Dropped
The idiots over on tiggger poopings are arguing they have already "paid the price" for their football sins... Last year at5-6 in a Covid year they "self imposed" a bowl ban.. Give me a break.. And all they want to talk about is the $$$ changing hands... Seem to have forgot the Title IX violations and the rapes etc... errrr aledged rapes....that were ignored

It is possible they kept Wade on for that very reason. When the perverbial “this day” finally came, the ouster of Wade will make all the news, esp. on eve of tournament. Meanwhile that makes three head coaches now gone so they could lead the media and others to remain distracted and not dig deeper and punish the past further by scapegoating those not there anymore so the future teams rebound faster and maybe even unscathed.

Those Alice Shoe guys can try to wish this away all they want, and that is fine.
The Title IX mess will rip the scab right off. Won't hurt the players much, but the institution and individuals within the department will be bloodied.

Need to stay away from this mess, someone is going to be left holding the bag. 21 teams in so far, 7 others said no.
Meanwhile at USM...
"In the meantime, we USM fans learned via Twitter Saturday that we were retaining men's coach Jay Ladner, who was 7-26 (1-17)- and two of the wins were against non-NCAA teams. Today we learned that he was given an extension sometime in the course of his contract, and he has a fully-guaranteed buyout of $650,000 and two seasons left. His record at USM is 24-65 (10-43) and his overall record at USM and SLU is 100-153. So here comes an easy out for your hoops teams next year, SBC".

Usm fans are not happy about it either. They have to save money for the sbc move. They at least have a excuse as to not buying out a coach.

It’s the “sometimes in the course of his contract” that’s an issue with fans I’m sure.

Can you do that under the rules, no. Not in any sport.
I’ve heard Alice shoe fans make the argument that Wade paying players is legal now. No it’s not.
I'm serious, I don't understand what the "portal" is....really I don't. The player goes into the portal and gets money from a school that buy's him...right?/wrong? How does this work. Didn't Coach watchacallem just leave here and buy most of the best players? I'm confused. Who gets the money from these portal deals is it the player or the school that's already paying the player to go to school amongst other things? What happens with the scholarship money the player has been paid?

At its core the portal has nothing to do with money and predates this money for your face stuff.
