These coaches need to be exposed for what they are. This is a sneaky, illigitimate way to run a program and get recruits funnelled to your school. Not to mention all the cash changing hands. Who knows where all the money went. I can't believe some of it didn't end up with some of the players involved.

Every one of these low-class coaches knew this operation was sleazy, but obviously they didn't care, and thought they would never be caught.

...Who knows where all the money went. ....

Didn't someone else post a story a few days ago about some D-I players snorting coke?
If the players have that kind of $$ to throw away, then maybe some of the $$ ended up in players' hands?

One of the schools intimately tied up in that scheduling scandal is Tennessee State, and their AD Teresa Phillips is not talking and not granting interviews.

But Teresa Phillips is not unknown to controversy.
She was discussed on this board a year ago or so when she became the first WOMAN to coach a D-I mens basketball team.
It happened when then head coach Nolan Richardson, Jr. resigned after he got into an argument with one of his assistants and went to his car, got his gun, and brought it into the school's arena. An assistant was elevated to interim head coach, but then he was suspended for a game after a bench-clearing brawl involving his team.
