wait...are you suggesting that the teams you list DON'T deserve these reputations??Some thing UNC doesn't care about academics even though they were cleared.
Duke is above the law and gets special treatment.
UK gets a bad rap for paying players.
KU well,
What's a stereotype about IU or any other team they don't deserve?
I know the “UK pays players” thing was big in Cal’s early days here. I guess just lack of anything credible not surfacing has been a big factor with that hypothesis running out of gas.
We’ve really got to hire someone for Quality Control.They just pay the wrong ones apparently.
I hear a lot about people being UConn fans every 5 years.
Any merit to this UConn fans? Not sure who to tag.
Who?Probably that Oregon basketball fans don't exist
Ha! Jokes on you; it was all consensual.Kentucky: sister rapers
This place is a “wasteland” like the Green Beret training camp is a wasteland. This place is not for casuals. It’s nothing here but the most-elite. It takes core strength to post here. It takes killers to last here . . . like:Just because most of us dont post in this wasteland
" I hear a lot " ? From where lol. Just because most of us dont post in this wasteland , doesnt mean
You are worth like 50 regular fans. Don't worry about it!Probably that Oregon basketball fans don't exist
You beat me by seconds to that comment you cock gobbler!There is a nasty stereotype that all male KU fans are hung like a horse. It's not untrue. But still. amirite @ExitFlagger
Texas tech fans look hugeThe worst stereotype I'm tired of dealing with is that Texas Tech fans all have foot long cocks. They are only 10 inches! So stop it!
Damn right! I love me some Korean!Texas tech fans look huge
In north korea
The lack of winning anything meaningful probably explains it. Cal and UK definitely pay player. They just pay the wrong ones apparently.
Or that no one gives a shit about paying players anymore and haven’t in quite awhileI know the “UK pays players” thing was big in Cal’s early days here. I guess just lack of anything credible not surfacing has been a big factor with that hypothesis running out of gas.

Kansas fans apparently love looking at cocks.
Who?
Right, because great athletes from disenfranchised backgrounds love to turn down money in so they can play for that awesome family atmosphere at UK.For a long time I had close contact with UK (1977-1985) because of my good friend Joe B. Hall. I helped when he was recruiting many good players. That was long ago before NIL because NIL (a U.S. Supreme Court ruling) allows college players to make money on their name, image and likeness.
I drove Joe B. to see Kenny Walker. I was with him during the complete recruitment. Kenny Walker went to Kentucky because it was UK, if I recall correctly he only had one more offer and that was from Georgia. Then a few years later Bob Knight wrote in his 'phantom' book (phantom because he did not write it) that UK paid Kenny Walker. I know quite well that that statement is a damned lie.
Kentucky does not need to pay players. Teams like Duke and Tennessee and Kansas and teams like those need to pay to compete with UK (Hell Duke and Kansas play home games in old relics). You go to UK and Rupp Arena is filled for the games. You go to UK and play away games in Mississippi, Florida, Tennessee, Mississippi St., LSU et.al. and that will probably be the only sell out of the year for those teams. They show up because it is Kentucky.
If you go to UK every game will be on TV (Mom and and Dad get to watch their son no matter when they live). It has been that way since the 1970's. I know because I have video of all of those games. No other team has had that.
So I don't need a UVA guy to tell me that UK is good because they pay their players. UK is good because of their following and the infrastructure of the program and its coverage.
As an aside, one year I was going to the AAU tourney with Joe B. and the biggest recruit of that year was Patrick Ewing. Joe B. told me that Ewing would not play division one basketball. I ask why and he said he got his transcript and he did not qualify. Shortly after that it was announced that Ewing was going to Georgetown. He graduated in 4 years. (Georgetown is a great school and they took Ewing, i.e. they cheated academically.)
Explain that to an old dumb UK guy you smart UVA man. And also explain why Sampson went to UVA? Money?
Bullshit. Plus I don't understand what your first sentence means as it was so butchered.Right, because great athletes from disenfranchised backgrounds love to turn down money in so they can play for that awesome family atmosphere at UK.
You’re as naive as Afamu.
UK has payed players, walker might have you just weren't privy, boosters do all kinds of things behind the schene. ALL schools have paid players, especially the good ones who matter.For a long time I had close contact with UK (1977-1985) because of my good friend Joe B. Hall.

The NCAA chooses who they go after. The NCAA are the cheaters.Not so much the fanbase, but Syracuse is labeled as a cheating program by some because the sanctions they were saddled with twice. Obviously other fanbases don’t dig into what the sanctions were actually for.
So that’s annoying.
Players have always received perks for a fact, but the fact also still remains that if UK has to cheat to be competitive then the schools without any following have to cheat more. But on the Kenny Walker recruitment I know exactly what was offered to him to attend UK.UK has payed players, walker might have you just weren't privy, boosters do all kinds of things behind the schene. ALL schools have paid players, especially the good ones who matter.
Well at least we've established that a lot, most and perhaps all were paid, why would it make sense that other teams had to cheat more to achieve less?Players have always received perks for a fact, but the fact also still remains that if UK has to cheat to be competitive then the schools without any following have to cheat more. But on the Kenny Walker recruitment I know exactly what was offered to him to attend UK.
But back to the Kenny Walker allegations made by Bob Knight were totally unfounded and I will guarantee that that year Bob Knight was tired of getting his ass kicked by Joe Hall and was wanting to get Kentucky on probation. If you can't beat them on the floor call them cheaters. Bob was good at passing judgements.
Probably that Oregon basketball fans don't exist

This is not true. We are only 99.7 % Mensa members.
