Sure glad the FBI is keeping us safe from scary college basketball coaches, but let’s the country’s largest criminal regime—Clinton Foundation—walk free.

Ever so often coaches and players get caught with money flowing for jerseys, shoes, etc. Too much money not for someone to jump on it.

Do a search on google for “bag man college football”. Makes the basketball folks look like amateurs.

“Ten people involved with the highest echelon of college basketball, including four assistant coaches...”

Assistant coaches? Highest echelon?

If we’re talking “highest echelon”, I’m waiting to hear names of head coaches, NCAA officials.

NYT has lost its sense of proportion. Four assistant coaches and a German shoemaker.

Hmmm. Only assistant coaches. I guess the schools need someone to throw under the bus.

It’s a good thing they weren’t selling uranium to the Russians for a kickback.

Looks like college sports has joined the NFL in the spotlight.

Just say 'no' to correctional sports.

You thought that college sports wasn't corrupt? A better question would be "Why today?"

Why is this breaking today. Who's narrative is it pushing? Who will benefit from this timing and news? Who benefits from Adidas's pain?

In short, the news isn't that this is going on. It is that the charges are being filed today, and who they are being charged against. Such things are so common in college sports that it should just be assumed.

“The United States attorney for the Southern District of New York said in a statement that since 2015 the F.B.I. and federal prosecutors have been investigating “the criminal influence of money on coaches and student-athletes who participate in intercollegiate basketball governed by the N.C.A.A.”

Maybe they shouldn’t be doing that, although I don’t really see the moral offense, but should the federal gummint be spending buckets and buckets of our money investigating the college basketball business?
