Is there any doubt Duke is paying kids? If Aynton is getting 100k then am I supposed to assume Zion and Barrett are getting nothing? Please..
Grasping. Praying. Hoping.
Keeping my mouth shut till all is clear for KU. Arizona had to be bidding against someone and the only one else recruiting Ayton was KU. Of the 3 players mentioned so far in bidding wars were Bowen, Nassir Little, and Ayton. Arizona involved heavily in all 3.
Praying KU not involved but would be very surprised if they weren't.

You think Florida will be named in any of this? Haven’t seen their name yet.Joel Embiid was paid. It’s why he signed a shoe deal with Addidas as soon as he left KU. People at UF thought he was theirs.

I have seen 1 Duke game from start to finish in the last 2 years and that was the UF game. My interest in Duke is incredibly low. You just can’t convince me that Duke is getting these kids for free in a world where other guys are getting paid 100k.

I think he's saying he didn't end up at UF as expected, maybe because they weren't willing to play the money game? IDK.You think Florida will be named in any of this? Haven’t seen their name yet.

UK hasn't been landing top recruits since before the FBI probe began, so I feel comfortable. I bet Capel's butt is puckered though.
Because Duke started landing top recruits last year...UK hasn't been landing top recruits since before the FBI probe began, so I feel comfortable. I bet Capel's butt is puckered though.
I appreciate the following! Now we are on the same page.I doubt it. If something comes out with Duke blatantly buying players then fine. Until then I’ll sit back and read your Capel hot takes with as much seriousness as I read Cal takes.

I mean top recruits as in top 5 guys.... (and I was joking anyway).Because Duke started landing top recruits last year...
Lacking top 5 players. Bam doesn't bother me either. That sounds a hell of a lot more like a rogue agent trying to lock up clients than anything concerning pay-for-play college basketball. This is not the same as the Bowden/Ayton stuff, IMO.Wait? I thought y'all had the No. 1-2 recruiting class the past three years? And Bam!

At this rate wouldn't surprise me.
I heard that. Some people are getting ripped off, bad. L'ville playing 100K for Bowen? LOLZ.... Come hard or go home!As you can see, top 5 players aren't the only ones getting paid.

We are talking about 2 very different things though: One concerns agents paying players or doing them favors in hopes of retaining them as clients when they go pro. The other is blatant payment of players to steer them to certain colleges. Big time difference, at least in terms of NCAA ramifications.All of this info is coming out from just one agency. Other agencies are doing the same. Fun times
