Do you even know what im talking about?

When Corey Maggette was a Duke Blue Devil he'd illegally recieved payments and had admitted to doing so.
How the NCAA could determine that Maggette didn't know he was taking money from Piggie is tough to understand, particularly when Maggette had long ago testified under oath that he, you know, took money from Piggie. Hilarious, right? But the key point is how the NCAA basically said Duke wasn't penalized because it did not know and should not have known that Maggette was ineligible. Meanwhile, Duke's 1999 Final Four banner still flies high.


In July 2005, KU released a report stating that they had violated an NCAA extra benefit rule during Williams' tenure. KU opted against self-imposing penalties.However, in 2006, the NCAA, after conducting its own investigation, decided to impose penalties. In reaching its decision, the NCAA noted that two boosters, one since 1988, had provided graduation gifts to outgoing basketball players with the knowledge of Williams. Gene Marsh, chair of the infractions committee, said there was no thought of now penalizing former KU coach Roy Williams for approving small cash gifts to graduating seniors.

Now tell me about Favorites?
