A combination of things.
1) Boeheim's pull at SU.
2) Nancy Cantor, chancellor and president, has let a lot of players who have gotten in trouble off the field/court play in their respective sports. She has nointegrity and is going to be investigated for something she did last year which probably would have ended her tenure at the university.
3) The DA will be up for re-election soon. He was the one who filed the charges against Devendorf but without giving a reason dropped them. Syracuse is a verysmall city (I wouldn't even call it a city) and with the way that the town views the players and SU Athletics there was no way that he would get a secondterm had Devendorf been convicted. Additionally, his son is a student at the school and it would have been pure hell for him.

Kareem could say all he want but the day before he was supposed to sign with St. john's UCLA flew him and his family out and paid off theirmortgage.Originally Posted by PhilBalla09
first time reading that
Wooden didn't buy recruits, all the claims came when the recruit was already enrolled (what players dont get stuff from boosters now a days?)....Gilbert didn't get involved w/ ucla until Alcindor was a junior and if yall read his book he was St. John's bound. Coach left and he then went to UCLA because of Jackie Robinson.
He won his first national title w/ the tallest player being 6'5.

I think it's more of the Program or Athletic Director, not necessarily the coach. The coach can recruit some thugs and $+%.. but it's gotta be able tofly with the schools policies.

Has Calipari actually done anything wrong? He flat out admitted in an interview last week that he doesnt care if players only stay one year. Ifhe thinks they are ready for the NBA after one year, he'll tell them to go. Its obviously not about school at Memphis. Thats why he can get recruits likehe does and his freelance offense supposedly lets players showcase themselves for NBA scouts. Cal could probably care less if they went to class or not. Thats what makes this guy shady, IMO.Originally Posted by Uter Zorker

There was a report about graduation rates for this years tournament teams, and its absolutely pathetic. Only 7 teams have 100% graduation rates. Thatspathetic.

You can't blame Cal for the NCAA and NBA agreement/setup/whatever about the 1 year removed from high school rule can you? really? Its his fault huh? Nocoach can make a player graduate or stay in college regardless of any 1/2/3 year rules, its up to the student (supposedly an adult
quote from CBS article
[font=Arial, Helvetica]"My players are doing it off the court, too," Calipari said. "After May, when four of my seniorsgraduate, it will mean that 18 of the 22 seniors I've had will have graduated. Of course, no one wants to hear it."
