Duke is investigating if Nike paid Zion’s mother
- Thread starter tru123dt
- Start date
I’m quite certain it will be an exhaustive investigation...
Kansas agreed to hand over the family farm and he turned it down for a better deal? Hmmm.......
Real Life shoe company payouts are making Blue Chips the movie look like a Disney tale.
Avenatti is sleeze.
That said, shoe company payouts are finally being exposed. This feels like the tip of the iceberg as when the Steroid Era in MLB baseball was finally exposed.

The NCAA wont touch coach K.
Duke Investigator: "Now see here son, there's some people in the media saying some bad things, are they true?"
Person being interrogated: "No sir"
Duke Investigator: "Well all right then."
The investigation is going to be like the parole hearing in Raising Arizona.

Yea and look how bad of shape UofL is in after all that! Left in shambles! The NCAA is a joke
The NCAA is a flawed,failed and favoritism system. UNC can use bogus classes to keep players eligible. Kansas,UK,Zona,Duke can all blatantly cheat and NCAA looks the other way. Let some small college,SMU,or some college even self-report and they throw the hammer at them. The NCAA is a farce. Alas,the NCAA integrity for college student-athlete is dead. Should have been a Shakespeare quote.Like ostriches, the NCAA sticks its' head in the sand when they don't want to hammer one of their money making programs. Like Congress, they are a circus. Enjoy the peanuts and popcorn.
Gee, I can't imagine what everyone is going on about. The FBI investigated, arrested 10 people, implicated 11 schools and promised they were not done. But, that was two years ago and there have not been any more arrests, so I guess the whole corruption problem was those 10 guys. Right?

I’ll be shocked if anything happens to Duke. I really think all the blue bloods cheat. Zion supposedly turned down the offer at Kansas and went to Duke for free? Coach K is the face of college basketball. Should be called Coach T. He is Teflon coated and nothing will stick. As iu and Purdue fans this makes it an uneven playing field. I hope they all get nailed but that’s why we have fairy tales I guess.
Whats interesting is Zion was a lock to UK with Clemson a second. All of a sudden his JR year Duke gets some love. The night he picked Duke. People were shocked. Its said in Zions JR year is when Nike paid his mom. Im not saying UK cant and hasnt looked into doing what it takes to land a kid. I just dont think they can. Way to many haters waiting to catch UK and Cal. Still getting good solid players. Just not the Aytons, Willamsons and Barretts. Funny how these guys all associated with Nike and getting paid. UK would never get out bid. Plus one of Nikes biggest schools. Just think Cal and UK know. Every journalist and the entire Ncaa compliance section. Watch and wait to pounce. Im from Memphis. I have a few personal stories of Cal and his doing what they had to do to stay competitive. I know what he is capable of. Just think since at UK. First. Just dosent have to cheat to get good players. Second. Just cant. In this day and time. With social media and greed at a all time high. Add in being the most watched school and coach in the country. No way he lasts ten years had he played in those dark areas.would of came out.
Lol, not really. If you think Dook is gonna actually do anything...well, you know the old cliches.
Duke does not need to cheat to get good players as well but they do. UK is dirtier than mud.
Shocked that it may have happened or shocked they are "investigating "?
I don't believe they're done with UofL. They still have the shoe money to deal with.
Here is their modest house in Durham, they had to move into something that had meager living conditions for his family.
No but magically they are all always academically eligible at a very tough school. Lol.
I hear what you're saying, but the Blue Bloods won't win every year they
take some years off. Then a Villanova come into the show, this year it's
Virginia Cavs.
Doesn't the two tiered justice system bother you? I call it injustice. If Bruce Pearl can be thrust out of Tenn for not disclosing what went on at Tenn and IU can get into big trouble for phone calls then what does it say about how the NCAA does business?
Corey Maggette (Duke 98) played in the much earlier AAU camp as UCLA
Jaron Rush. Both were coached by Myron Piggie Morton a well known college
player runner of Kansas City. He was convicted and sentenced heavily. Maggette only had to stayed at Duke for a year and then go into the league.
Sadly Rush's career didn't end as well as Maggette. An investigation was shown Magggette received 2K from Piggie for college assignment and Duke was unaware in Piggie's pay for player scheme.

Maybe go look at Duke and the type of players they missed on before a certain coach came back. That coach was fired for paying players. You do the research. While your at it. Look at how many top recruits UK has gotten in ten years. Then add in at least ten family, friends, coaches per kid. Lets say ten per kid. And nothing. Thats a lot of people to keep quiet. Hell Crean met a kid just hours after contact rule. It was on every web site before the next day. UK is as clwan as they come. They gave to be. Our own in state journalists would love to make a career off bringing down down Cal n UK. Cracks me up. All these fans bases that said Cal and UK would get caught chwating. Ten years later. UL, IU and others are suffering. Cal n UK doing ok. Zion was set to go to the biggest Nike school in the country. All of a sudden Duke hits the lottery. Hmmm did uk get out bid. Or was it UK was not playing that game but Duke was. And yes. Duke has needed to cheat to get releavant again.
Does someone want to translate this authentic frontier gibberish...?
Such a long winded post to simply say Duke cheats better than Kentucky now...
It did but there is nothing I can do about it. So I dont even get mad anymore. One lesson is never self report period.
