THOUSANDS of dollars paid by Bill Self, Rick Barnes (Texas coach), Billy Gillespie (Texas A&M coach), etc DIRECTLY
to the AAU coaches and even relatives of the very players he is recruiting!!
BIG PAYMENTS of cash directly to Anthony Longstreet, Larry Butler, etc. No wonder it seems to be such a good living being a high school or AAU coach, because it obviously IS.
If this isn't crooked, then I have some land to sell you...
But of course the NCAA isn't the least bit interested....read on...
It's because there are technically no rules broken as long as there is no WRITTEN CONTRACT to deliver the players, even tho there may be a verbal contract to do so, and the track record of where the players end up is the SMOKING GUN!
The writers also cite examples of up to $50,000 paid to AAU coaches in the past!
One expert states, however:
"NCAA rules allow for this financial relationship between college coaches and those who coach their recruits in all sports. John Gerdy, author of multiple books dealing with sports ethics, said this relationship "stinks to high heaven."
"This does not break the letter of the law, but I certainly do believe it violates the spirit of the law," Gerdy said."
