NCAA has charges of misdeeds on them….."},"content":{"rendered":"
The KANSAS JAYHAWKS and their head coach BILL SELF have been alleged to have committed three level one violations with notice of a lack of institutional control. If proven true, Coach Self could be suspended for one or more seasons and the program could suffer punishments of one-to-five year postseason bans and restrictions on scholarships and recruiting. The KU program is in deep do do sports fans.<\/span><\/h6>\n

The investigation by the NCAA will be ongoing and the charges found true or not by the summer of 2020. Kansas administration has indicated that they will cooperate fully with the investigation. It is also known that the charges will be fought by KU and the Jayhawks basketball program will not go down without a fight.<\/span><\/h6>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/h6>\n
From CBS Sports: Kansas\u2019 alleged violations in basketball stem from the FBI\u2019s recent investigation into the sport related to corruption and bribery. The probe roped in Kansas when T.J. Gassnola, a former Adidas consultant, testified about his involvement in funneling money to the mother of former KU basketball player Billy Preston and to the guardian of current KU basketball player Silvio De Sousa. Last week, reports surfaced indicating an NOA \u2014 with major rules violations allegations \u2014 was likely imminent for the program.\u00a0<\/span><\/h6>\n

This evening, the Jayhawk administration began their defense with a statement from Kansas\u2019 Office of Public Affairs. In part, it reads as follows: <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

It is already clear from an initial review that the University will fiercely dispute in detail much of what has been presented.<\/span><\/p>\n

First and foremost, the University emphasizes that it emphatically rejects the assertion that Adidas and Adidas employees and associates were boosters and agents of the University (as defined by NCAA legislation) during the period of the alleged violations and therefore acting on the University\u2019s behalf when they engaged in alleged violations of NCAA bylaws.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

As for the allegations regarding Head Men\u2019s Basketball Coach Bill Self, voluminous evidence demonstrates uncontestably that he did, in fact, promote an atmosphere of compliance and fully monitor his staff. The University firmly and fully supports Coach Self and his staff. [\u2026]<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

The University strongly disagrees with the assertion that it \u201clacks of institutional control.\u201d In fact, the University believes that the record will demonstrate just the opposite. [\u2026]<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

We understand this is a unique moment in collegiate athletics, and we recognize the NCAA finds itself in a challenging position. But we don\u2019t believe these allegations are the most appropriate way to address long-standing challenges in college basketball.<\/em><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

<\/h6>\n
<\/h6>\n
Bill Self\u2019s response:\u00a0 <\/span>\u201cEvery student-athlete who has ever played for me and their families know we follow the rules.\u00a0 <\/span>These allegations are serious and damaging to the university and to myself, and I hate that KU has to go through this process. With our staff\u2019s full cooperation, these allegations will be addressed within NCAA procedures and with urgency and resolve. I will strenuously defend myself and the program, but I will respect the process and will not speak to the details of the case.\u201d<\/span><\/h6>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n
One must ask, did Kansas win all those Big Twelve titles in men\u2019s basketball breaking the rules of the NCAA?\u00a0 What part did Bill Self have in the alleged violations and did he fail to monitor HIS<\/em> program?\u00a0 And finally, is the Kansas men\u2019s basketball program dirty?\u00a0 Time will tell.<\/span><\/h6>\n
