Indiana President McRobbie has announced an internal investigation into the allegations submitted by the NCAA last week. The NCAA has deemed five violations by Coach Kelvin Sampson to be “major.” Now Indiana is doing another investigation. What a joke? You can smell this dog and pony show from 10 miles away. All Indiana is doing is trying to find out how to cover their backside if they fire Coach Sampson. Talk about hypocrisy. But then again it is always about money.
I am not defending Coach Sampson if he is guilty of the charges, however, let’s be serious. Making a couple extra phone calls is not like giving a kid cash or some other type of extra benefit. Every program in the country has broken rules. Some have been reported. While others go untraceable.
As far as I am concerned, let him coach out the year and then let the chips fall where they may. This is the same school that got rid of Bob Knight because they didn’t want to put up with his boorish behavior and more importantly, he was no longer winning championships.
In the end just follow the money trail.
