I’m not that worried about it. Not from Dukes standpoint.
If i read correctly he’s an agent. You can meet with an agent, there is nothing illegal about that. If we are talking about a meal, i mean, again from Dukes standpoint what can be done there? Nothing. But that is getting into the weeds. Basically the NCAA would have to go through do their own research and figure it out. Again, i wouldn’t be too worried about it, we normally do our due diligence but is there really any way to stop this type of thing?If he paid for a meal what can actually be done? And who exactly is the guy?
You are correct timo! Hopefully the compliance department is up to date on everything.He didn’t even say if he had a meal or not. They just list a bunch of players and said these players and or their families may have met with or had a meal with (not necessarily paid by) this person. From our standpoint there is zero here, zero.
Now if your school has a kid listed here and there are thousands of dollars attached to it- that would be a concern because it means your school didn’t do their due diligence.
And as said before it isnt illegal to meet with an agent.
Stole this from the main board:Why are you guys so sure it was JUST plane tickets and meals? I honestly don’t know, the yahoo article said met with and had meals with the agent. Also even if it was just that, won’t that still make Carter ineligible?
Yahoo still exists?
Yea. At least there is no mention of any of our players receiving huge amounts of loans like some of the players listed on there.If he paid for a meal what can actually be done? And who exactly is the guy?
don't think it's a huge deal, but i think the issue comes with carter still playing ... the safe approach would be to sit him until it's investigated, but how long does an investigation last? since he's a OAD does he just go ahead and call it a year?
This is just from one agency. Other agents were doing similiar stuff. Then there’s the shoe money. It’s going to get messy.Yea. At least there is no mention of any of our players receiving huge amounts of loans like some of the players listed on there.
You know Yahoo owns Rivals, right?Yahoo still exists?
It said Bridges family, not Bridges himself btw.Doesn't say the agent paid for the meal like it did with Bridges. It just listed players/family Dawkins had meals with.
Why would agents even keep records like this? Morons.
The NCAA and the schools themselves make so much cash off these guys. I get that you have to have strict rules to maintain amatuerism, but meals? When I was a Federal employee we had clear rules about impermissible benefits to protect our responsibilities to the taxpayer, but we could receive up to a 25 dollar meal and accept small gifts. We were certainly allowed to accept a plane ticket or a waiver for the cost of a meeting to go speak about our research. Once at the meeting, we were not allowed to get massages, personal favors or free casino money. There were common sense rules for that kind of stuff. The NCAA is so messed up. The whole system is a farce.That's what I'm thinking. We have tips of people wanting to shoot schools up but we spend years in this crap. It's a joke and who cares about a meal really
If that’s all Duke is involved in this mess I’m good, because it isn’t illegal to have a meal bought for you. NC State, UK, should be very worried. Seems like some of their players took the most money.$106 lunch.... How is this even of concern? What if Carter's mom gave this agent cash and he pockets it and put the entire meal on his bill.
I mean there's so many variables here, doesn't seem like anything that will have any legs.
This seems like a colossal waste of taxpayer money though.
I saw that. Can’t fix stupid. You’re going to see some gross over reactions on every board, ours included.Haha go look over at THR. They are literally too dumb to notice that Carter and Bradley are accused of essentially the same thing. They lump Carter in with DSJ and Bam
It could only cost them if the money was not paid back in a timely fashion.If Tony Bradley and Wendell Carter were meeting with an agent and got a paid meal I really don’t see how that costs either school wins.
We finally agree on somethingIf Tony Bradley and Wendell Carter were meeting with an agent and got a paid meal I really don’t see how that costs either school wins.
