Auburn is sponsored by Under Armour. Are they involved too?
I read somewhere that Auburn was UA for football, but Adidas for basketball.

So how deep down the rabbit hole will the FBI and NCAA actually go?
Big news expected out of Louisville tomorrow morning. Likely Pitino firing (or worse).

...Also, MDMH, if you're reading this, enjoy it. I can't imagine that other than your wedding day and the impending birth of your child that there could be a much sweeter feeling as a UK fan.
The Auburn connection is pretty interesting. Despite not having a great basketball tradition, once Pearl arrived, they started bringing in top recruits a level above where they had been before. Pearl already had a pretty shady history before arriving.
edited to add that Person was brought in by Pearl when he was hired.
I kinda wonder why Rick needed to pay for 5 stars when he built great, final four caliber teams of 4 star players. Was it the stress of competing in the ACC?
Now we know how Auburn signed those players. Pearl has already had a "show cause" order from the NCAA. If Person rolls on him at all, Pearl's career is over. Too bad!
Assuming Wake doesn't get dragged into this, I should be happy to hear this, but I can't help but thinking - doesn't the FBI have better things to do

"Acting U.S. Attorney Joon Kim said the FBI and prosecutors set out to investigate the "dark underbelly of college basketball" and found a pay-to-play culture flourishing in some corners of the NCAA."
I can see why the NCAA would care but is this really something that the FBI needs to be targeting?
