Tipoff is just over one month away (Nov. 10).  Please keep the recent corruption scandal discussion in the other thread (unless talking about how it impacts the team's fortunes on the court).  

 

Looks like Duke goes into another season as the preseason #1 since they have Marvin Bagley III, who is going to be a beast.  Other good teams look like Michigan State, Kansas, Kentucky, Miami, Florida and West Virginia, although WVU's second best player is out for the first half of the season.

Sports section bleeding into the front page by way of another corruption scandal:

The University Of Louisville has placed men's head basketball coach Rick Pitino on unpaid administrative leave, with his employment to be reviewed. The school's interim president, Gregory Postel, called it "a dark day" for the university.

 

The move comes after Pitino's program was implicated in a wide-ranging federal fraud investigation that was unveiled on Tuesday. The FBI says it caught coaches, Adidas employees and players in a network of bribes.

 

Postel said Louisville athletic director Tom Jurich is being placed on paid administrative leave.

Don't understand why people want liangelo suspended for the year!

Yes, he and the boys shoplifted from 3 stores. What they did was bad. But they should be suspended three or four games. A year seemsharsh.

 

WVU's 2nd best player got suspended half the year b/c he got a 1.9 GPA, not a 2.0.  Those dumb****s stole **** in a dictatorship country.  One of them has a brother with $6 million.  They should get a year just to ****ing meditate on how dumb they are.
