Louisville assistant allegedly paid madam to provide sex for players & recruits
The book alleges: “At the peak of the dormitory and off-campus entertainment more than $10,000 cash changed hands to Katina for supplying the women. This does not include the hundreds of one dollar bills thrown at the dancers at each party by McGee, the recruits and players. Nor does it include the money paid to the women who had sex with the recruits afterward. So frequent were the escapades that Katina would later say, especially after the Cardinals won the 2012-2013 NCAA championship: I felt like I was part of the recruitment team. A lot of them players went to Louisville because of me.”
The actions described in the book would appear to be both illegal and in violation of school and NCAA rules. If, as Powell alleges, players who were members of Louisville’s championship team received impermissible benefits that were provided by a staff member, the Cardinals’ title would seemingly be in jeopardy.

Could lead to vacating the 2012-2013 NCAA Championship if true. If only that ref had got that clean block right instead of calling a foul on Trey Burke...

If they vacate that win, do we get it??
October 2nd, 2015 at 6:45 PM ^
Yes, that's how it works.
October 2nd, 2015 at 6:46 PM ^
Thanks!

caused a little confusion for me.

I should have probably posted all my follow-ups in response to my first reply in retrospect.
October 2nd, 2015 at 7:07 PM ^
i was trying to be funny...
October 2nd, 2015 at 6:56 PM ^
You're probably right. That guy doesn't know what he's talking about, trust me.
October 2nd, 2015 at 7:02 PM ^
That other guy has been known to get it wrong from time to time.
October 2nd, 2015 at 6:52 PM ^
I don't want it.
If you didn't celebrate it back then, it's meaningless.

From the story apparently the benefits did indeed extend to players' fathers.

Auburn has their "Tigerettes" and Ole Miss is great at "flipping" recruits on one visit. I think providing ho-stesses for recruits is sorta expected, at least in the south. The only thing that surprises me about this story is that UL had to hire from outside instead of having ho-stesses who are affiliated with the school.
And I agree about being a recruit. If I was in that position, I would make sure I took my full compliment of "visits" to schools that had reputations for that kind of thing.

Innocent until proven guilty and all, but my dislike for the Louisville hoops program has now officially reached Duke levels.
