Expect Oregon to get some sanctions from the new investigation on players and inappropriate benefits.

Well that depends on how you look at it, Oregon is recruiting some of the same people....
Norman Powell is one of those, along with Kori Babineaux, Ronnie Stevens.
Of course we can't forget....Austin Kuemper who committed to Oregon for next year....

I hope Calipari and Kentucky get severely punished. Every school he's coached at has an asterisk next to a few wins, or an entire season because he 'looked the other way' while recruiting.
UMass lost an entire season because Camby's info was bogus..
Memphis was stripped of every victory in its 38-win season because Rose was ineligible ..
and now it looks like Eric Bledsoe was ineligible all of last year and Kentucky will get stripped of it's 35 win season.
At some point the NCAA's have to see that the players are continually showing up with fraudulent transcripts, are not passing classes and are leaving early to turn pro, before things hit the fan. Calipari already lost one player for the '10' class because he was being paid .. and will most likely end up forfeiting wins from this year and/or next year too. As long as he continues to bring in top 5 classes the school will also look the other way ... the ncaa's need to step in and rip him a new one.

You forgot to add that Calipari keeps getting multi million dollar contracts too. Dude is a crook and some fanatics love the dude. He makes me barf. (Can we say barf here?) |

Expect Oregon to get some sanctions from the new investigation on players and inappropriate benefits. NCAA investigating Oregon basketball team * PUBLISHED 2 days and 11 hours ago * LAST UPDATED 2 days and 10 hours ago Sporting NewsSporting News The NCAA’s investigations into student-athletes receiving “extra benefits” have led to the Oregon Ducks’ basketball program, the Eugene Register-Guard reports. The eligibility of former members of the team from the past two seasons is under investigation, the university acknowledged in a statement. According to a release issued Tuesday night, the University of Oregon has conducted an internal investigation into the program, specifically the eligibility of former center Michael Dunigan and other players. The school reported the information to the Pacific-10 Conference on Aug. 2, according to the release, and the league sent the information to the NCAA. The statement did not specify how many players are involved in the inquiry and did not name any other players. The current Ducks squad will practice on Wednesday, the first day they are allowed to work out in the presence of coaches this fall. Coach Dana Altman did not comment on the investigation Tuesday. He told the Oregonian he spoke with Dunigan about a week and a half ago, when the coach "got an update on what he was thinking.'' A source told the Register-Guard that the UO believes there is no issue with the eligibility of the nine current scholarship players. "It doesn't affect us at all,'' he said. "We'll go with the players that we have.'' Dunigan is heading to Israel, planning to play there and in Europe for the next three years.

In my opinion, if a coach blatantly violates recruiting rules, they should be terminated without severance and banned from ever coaching at the NCAA level. That's the only way you keep them honest.
