A report surfaced today that a high school coach whose player was involved with the investigation into Kelvin Sampson’s illegal phone calls has sent in his phone records to refute the charge. The phone records show that the call was made from the high school coaches phone and not an Indiana assistant (which would have made it illegal).
That knocks it down to 9 phone calls in question. Are you kidding me? The NCAA is off it’s rocker spending so much money to invesitgate this matter. That is why Jerry Tarkanian received $22.5 million dollars from the NCAA for their abusive investigations of him at UNLV.
Sampson has moved on to the NBA. The AD still has his job and Tom Crean is rebuilding from scratch. Let’s give it a rest and worry about something more important.
BROWN HIRES AGEL
Assistant Jessie Agel has been hired as the head coach at Brown. After Craig Robinson was hired at Oregon State (not sure why), his assistant was left to hand in the wind for close to three months. Finally, they did the right thing and hired a guy who has paid his dues. After a stellar run as an assistant at Vermont, he was bypassed for that job and landed on his feet at Brown.
Glad to see him get an opportunity. Go Bears!!
LAWSON ARRESTED FOR DUI
Ty Lawson was arrested for DUI and underage drinking in Chapel Hill over the weekend. Must have been partying with Tyler Hansbrough. I wonder who can jump the farthest out a window.
He was supposed to work out for the Denver Nuggets on Sunday. Obviously, he missed it. Lucky for him George Karl is an ex-UNC player so he probably knows a little bit about the partying going on in Chapel Hill. Do you think they will still take him with their 20th pick as was rumored? Why not, he is a perfect fit with Iverson and Anthony. Both on and off the court!
My only question is why didn’t he wait until after the draft?
