Princeton down 47-43 at the half.
Creighton to the Elite 8 for the first time in school history 86-75. Just like I said !

Princeton covered, Creighton altered their game plan at half, adjusted to monopolize what Princeton was giving them, Princeton just didn’t the athletes to change

Creighton is a smart team, good coach, although I don’t know how they’ll match up with the football teams they would have to face going forward, depends on the referees. The Big East has probably been the second best conference all year

Players have been receiving illegal benefits forever. It's just a reality. (If you ever watched the ESPN 30 For 30 on college football in the '80's it was wild for what boosters were offering kids.) It's forever a cat and mouse game between the schools, boosters and the NCAA as to what they can get away with.

N.I.L. is at least attempting to bring it above ground.

Sure there were “benefits,” but some schools were exorbitant in their “benefits,” and the NCAA was ruled by school chancellors/presidents, largely from State schools, who turned a blind eye to a lot of which was going on. I know in basketball it was usually the private school who were the ones “caught” and penalized

NIL’s, manipulation of NIL, opportunity cost is far greater than merits “bringing it above ground”

They've tried the unionization route and its gone nowhere. If you google, there are good articles breaking down why it didn't, and won't, happen. So with that off the table you have to deal with what's in front of you. The Ed O'Bannon ruling was a game changer. Right now it's the wild wild west with the N.I.L. because its so new and people are trying to figure what's acceptable and what's not. Hopefully something will be put in place soon offering more guidance.

Unionization didn’t work, and it was only attempted minimally, because the efforts weren’t aimed at full unionization but rather an altered model, besides, last thing the schools, NCAA’s, would want is athletes organized, so it never had a chance

Your as naive as Mick Cronin, there isn’t going to be guidance, the last thing the schools profiting off of NIL, which not ironically were the same ones from enriching themselves from prior “benefits,” are going to return to oversight

Gonzaga still has UCLA's number.

Creighton started hitting shots and Princton started missing but yes, adjustments favored the Blue Jays.

Now they get San Diego State who are a legit team favored -2.5. Should be a good game to watch.

Cars, money, trailer park homes, jobs you didn't have to show up for etc. It was the wild wild west. Almost everyone was doing it yet they decided to fvck SMU the hardest. That program has never really recovered which is why you'll never see a penalty that harsh again.

I was an Oklahoma fan back then and I loved how the cops had to go to the football dorm to make the players stop firing Uzis out the windows.

Remember when they sent Mike Kryschevski (I know the spelling is wrong) got sent to please with the university presidents after they slashed scholarships due to this mess ? (they hit basketball and football) He got laughed out of the room.
