Baylor cheating? At basketball? Say it ain't so...

    didn't Perry Jones serve a suspension just this year for "receiving inappropriate benefits"?

    His mother was loaned money from his AAU coach that she repaid. If you read the article of them losing their house and moving from hotel to hotel you can see he wasn't paid by Baylor.

    Also in the artlcle it mentions that two other Big 12 programs offered him money and one his parents a job in the city of the school. I wish he'd name names.

    I live in Waco and the espn sports radio station has been talking about it most of the day! According to the moderators and the people that are calling in it is the University of Texas's fault for Baylor being investigated in the first place! It is hard to listen to all of this being turned against Texas. They talked about how Texas doesn't like to lose to Baylor and it was only a matter of time before Texas would call out the dogs on them. They always have to blame someone instead of admit that a violation did occur!

    On Smoaky's show?

    Did you listen to Jason King say nothing more would come of this as well?

  • Fire away on any other questions, just keep it civil and I'll answer if I know.

    I have a real job and other responsibilities, but I've answered. No extra e.

    I don't follow. Do you have another job in addition to being a mod for the Baylor site? Or is overseeing a site with 100 fans and defending Scott Drew until you are blue in the face this "real job" you speak of?

    Brian when the athletic department slogan is "Doing it with integrity" you should be beyond reproach..............Drew is not even close. Multiple people from all over the country have told Starr and the AD at Baylor Drew is dirty. But they do nothing..................the technology is there to make sure university issued phones are not used to make calls or text messages when they are not allowed. The technology also tracks the number of calls to recruits..............the Baylor administration chooses to look the other way.

    This was a 29 month investigation, and this stuff is really minor and would likely be found at any school with an athletic department if given over two years to find something.

    This is the defense of all schools that get caught cheating.

    HA! Cocaine's a helluva drug.

    If Thayer Evans had written this instead of King I'd have blown it off. Our board knew for some time about the violations, just not the total calls.

    Also, the team was one short this year and the women were 2 short. Most knew something wasn't right when the bench wasn't full.

    Still no money trail or WWW in the Baylor fold.

    Wow! You buy all of this b.s. without question. Do you really think that $ came from the AAU coach?

    If it did, does that mean that Marcus Smart will be in trouble since his rent is cheaper since Forte's dad owns the house they rent?

    Now that he's in college his parents are no longer struggling after all these years of not having $ and you think that means Baylor isn't paying?

    While his parents were struggling big time, you honestly think they turned down $ and jobs from other Big 12 schools to attend Baylor because........? Tradition? Haha. Location? Haha. The education? Nope, he's leaving early so education isn't a factor. Baptist affiliation? Right.

    You need to take the highlighter yellow tinted glasses off and see that you have a DIRTY men's basketball program. No one says this because the men are winning. They say this b/c it's true.

    As a fellow Baptist it bugs me to no end that Drew says one thing and then acts as unethically as he does. And you and your school should demand more from your coaches, not blindly follow them and act like others are jealous. Your schools flash in the pan doesn't bother me in the least. I want other Big 12 teams to be good.

    If you have proof. Offer it up and I'll take it directly to Judge Starr. Not joking.

    Thanks for answering my questions. Actually, I knew you wouldn't because then you'd realize how dumb you sound.

    What type of proof do you need? If you need proof that he's unethical look no further than this report.

  • so, being charitable, it was only 400 illegal contacts to recruits.

    ...just another peccadillo.

    if I were a BU fan/alumnus, I certainly wouldn't be so confident that my program could make it through
    several years of probation without running afoul of the NCAA again.
