Shoe company payments to families of Bagley and Josh Jackson.

If Duke wins the National Title will they take down the banner and fire Coach K if it's proven he was paid?

Well they could take down the banner hypothetically, but no coach would be fired imo if a kid is paid by a shoe company. Unless that coach facilitated the transaction. Which there’s no evidence of here. At least that’s come out yet.

Title seems pretty spot on to me, unless you can explain how Bagley's parents went from a foreclosed 44,000 house to a 3/4 of a million home.

Any team that consistently gets multiple five star players a year has guys who were getting kickbacks to funnel them to specific programs. Period.

Besides Duke & UNCheats there's not another basketball program in the country that the NCAA would allow Marvin Bagley to play at.

Was Kanter’s academic transcript ever in question?

Nope - but Bledsoe’s was.

From the article

■ Bledsoe got an A in Algebra 3 in night school sessions as a senior at Parker High before then taking Algebra 2 the following semester.

■ Bledsoe had a 1.75 grade-point average in core classes at Hayes High before attaining a 3.0 core GPA at Parker.

■ Bledsoe's grades in core classes at Hayes included only one better than a C: a B in a summer-school English class. At Parker, he had an A or B in seven of 10 core classes.

■ Bledsoe got a D in biology at Hayes, then got an A in the equivalent class at Parker by taking a Brigham Young University Independent Studies Course offered online.

And Kentucky's response to those question the admissions process of Bledsoe to the University of Kentucky?

From the article

"Eric Bledsoe was part of our normal institutional process, the NCAA's normal eligibility cycle and a more extensive secondary review by the NCAA Eligibility Center, as well," he said in the statement. "We maintain our reliance on the high school, university and NCAA Eligibility Center for initial eligibility and will continue to do so."

"Eric Bledsoe was part of our normal institutional process" - really? He wasn't admitted as a special qualifier that schools like IU or Duke have for kids with questionable academic backgrounds - UK used the NCAA to determine he'd be able to play.

But then you say this:

Besides Duke & UNCheats there's not another basketball program in the country that the NCAA would allow Marvin Bagley to play at.

He's a UK fan that called Duke and UNC cheaters. Talk about lack of awareness, it's like Charles Manson calling OJ Simpson a murderer.

Let's point and laugh at him..

Enes Kanter went to UK but never played because he couldn't become eligible.
