GOT EM: Kansas Will Never Recover From Having To Take Down A Final Four Banner Thanks To The FBI's Joke Of An Investigation Into College Hoops
There's never been a bigger waste of time than the FBI's investigation into college basketball. The whole thing started with assistant coaches getting arrested, the FBI claiming they had college basketball's playbook and would change the sport forever. Well, here we are and uh Pitino got fired from Louisville? That was more a million other reasons. Oh, Oklahoma State got banned from the NCAA Tournament for a year because the NCAA is a joke. And then there's this from today.
Kansas has to take down their 2018 Final Four banner. Oh no! How will they ever survive?
The only thing that's more pointless than this investigation is taking down banners. We all saw the games. We all saw what happened. You don't just reverse that. Except 2013 Louisville. That banner should be down because Trey Burke did not commit a foul and that changed the game more than strippers in dorms or corruption charges. That one makes sense and you won't hear me yelling for Louisville to put the banner back up.
Remember it took 6 years for the IARP to come out with this ruling. Six years! No one is in college for six years outside of dudes now who were able to use the COVID free year. Good for the NCAA to lay out the hammer and take away wins that people will for sure talk about nonstop. I mean, how will a program like Kansas ever come back from a banner being down? Impossible!
I still can't believe people went to jail over this whole thing. Then you had the lead agent blow the case by getting drunk in Vegas, which actually sums up everything in the NCAA and this case as perfect as possible.
Nothing like a 6-year investigation for a banner to come down. Glad we have the NCAA to keep us safe in these trying times. I mean, hell, it's not like players can make money these days. I'd hate to see the outcry over that when we have banners to worry about.
