Didn't he go round in circle's? Also, think he played with the boys from Liverpool.
Billy Preston 'car accident investigation'.... ?
- Thread starter AndreHoldingMyRearend
- Start date
Doug Compton's checkbook has to be smoking considering how many times he has to use it to bail Kansas out with recruits and the law.
Asked it before and I'll ask it again - why in the world would a top-10 kid choose to play in Lawrence unless there were shenanigans?
I LOL'd. I believe the issue now is how many games he'll miss based on the dollar value given.
"Dollar value given"? Are you suggesting a Kansas player received an impermissible benefit? Surely not.
Wasn’t Kelvin Sampson the president of coaches on rules or some position about ethics when he cheated at Indiana, I mean I know he was but can’t remember the title. The guys that get those spots sometimes try to shield how dirty they are. As for Kansas, the ncaa headquarters used to be located there and a likely reason they get special treatment despite ish loads of smoke always billowing from that school.

“Billy’s situation is going to sort itself out sooner rather than later,” Self told FanRag Sports on Tuesday.

Way to go out on limb Mr. Self.
Oh... and as far as more shady Kansas business goes:

There’s a chance blue-chip IMG Academy power forward Silvio De Sousa will be playing basketball at the University of Kansas in December.
De Sousa is ranked No. 25 in the Class of 2018 by Rivals.com.
“We are just trying to see NCAA-wise if he can make that move. He doesn’t want to get too excited about this because the NCAA might say we can’t do this. It’s an NCAA decision.”
“It’s not going to come down to the test, but more the core credits he has that transfer from back home,” Falmagne said. “The NCAA will have to look at all the credits he got. Is it something they will allow to transfer … see how many that is, see where he’s at.”

That's the thing tho it appears to have nothing to do with a car. No police reports have reported this single car accident. No official report of an accident at all. That's shady. At first Preston was missing games due to being late for class, but it appears that was something they couldn't use for an entire season so the story changed to him wrecking a car that was too nice. It clearly seems as if this has nothing to do with a car and something much bigger and as I previously stated earlier possibly fbi related.
Also I would not consider Kansas a hated rival at all. Kansas is not a team I ever find myself mad at or hateful of. Nor do any other UK fans I know 'hate' KU. I was just saying this story seems very shady and it's not getting any attention which is weird to me.
Over the past several years there appears to be more questions about KU players than at most other schools,on the reverse side there seem to be fewer straight answers to these questions.There is always some grey area that Self is "looking into" or "sorting out" or he is "creating information". It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out that something out of the ordinary is always going on there,but evidently it does take someone smarter than anyone at the NCAA
Me too it is tough to wade thru all their bull$h!^ but the fact that they aren't here says something.
Like someone said if he doesn't play pretty quickly in the 2nd semester then he probably won't play at all.
If Kansas had a Jerry Tipton, that program would rarely have a season when it's not under NCAA probation.
Their compliance department is headed by David Reed. If you aren’t familiar, he is the one that was overseeing compliance at Miami when the whole Nevin Shapiro fiasco went down. He skirted right before shit hit the fan and Miami got hammered and went to KU.
About Preston and the car. The car is a complete farce. I have said it many times, first it was missing class/rules violations, then the car, then he didn’t travel with the team because mommy was in Kansas. Kansas fans have Self’s balls so far down their throat and believe everything he says. I can’t believe they still think that it takes this long to find out how a car was paid for. What’s funny is Self knows how dumb they are and doesn’t even have to come up with creative excuses.

Bill Self's Greatest Hits:
It appears there was some progress regarding Cheick Diallo’s eligibility case on Monday.
“The only thing I know is our athletic director was contacted (by NCAA) today that they are working on it,” KU coach Bill Self said after the Jayhawks’ 123-72 first-round Maui Invitational win over Chaminade in Lahaina Civic Center. “That’s all I know concerning that situation,” he added
Kansas coach Bill Self on Saturday expressed frustration over the ongoing NCAA investigation of suspended freshman Cliff Alexander and stressed the need for all parties — Kansas, the NCAA and Alexander's family — to "get on the same page" in order to expedite the process.
"The bottom line is that I just wish everyone would get together and talk it out," Self said outside the team's locker room following a 75-73 loss at Oklahoma. "If there is a problem, deal with the problem. But don't run from it."
Bill Self commented today on the eligibility status of freshman point guard Josh Selby. Here is what he said in full:Josh's status for competition hasn't changed. While he has met NCAA academic requirements to be on aid, practice and compete this year, we continue to work with the NCAA as we review his amateur status. We will not play Josh in games until that process is complete and a decision is rendered
Bill Self says Billy Preston eligibility issues unlike any he’s had with KU basketball
Coach hopeful situation will conclude in ‘relatively near future

I'd assume because no one "knew" he was driving the car before the wreck.
If a booster (or an agent) gives you a late-model luxury/sports car, it's probably important to not broadcast that to the general public.
Now it's a matter of how (or if) Kansas can cover their ass for their latest blatant cheating. Really, whether they can come up with some plausible deniability that will allow Preston to play, or whether they'll have to sacrifice him (ala Cliff Alexander) while proclaiming ignorance/innocence.
And the NCAA will apparently continue to look the other way and say "no problem here".

Yes it does,you would probably find a UL like situation,the Cards got away with stuff for years before Ms Powell brought it all down .KU is likely in the same boat.
The thing that is puzzling to me is that everyone seems to buy/accept the flimsy explanations that Self keeps putting out.Preston's situation is just the latest example of Self and KU dancing around an issue,telling 2 or 3 different stories,none of which tell anyone the actual reason Preston isn't playing.Last year it was kicking the car,hitting the female,the bong,the rape in the basketball dorm.Prior to that it was the Alexander "loan" that came to light after he had played how many games
Self isn't even good or believable at explaining the issues,he is worse than Pitino yet the NCAA and the media seem to buy it year after year after year.
Rape?? I thought it came out that it was someone not at all involved with the KU program, or was there another incident?
The basketball players were the only people at the dorm since school was on Winter Break. It was at least 1 player, probably more. No one talked. The Victim was wasted & she wasn't positive on the penetrator(s) when the penis lineup was presented. At least that's what I heard.
What "came out" as the story KU wanted to come out not the real story.Anyone paying attention can see this, some just ignore it and business as usual continues at KU
On De Sousa, 'our ability to either speak French or Portuguese in a way that we have received additional information to basically help him has been somewhat limited'. What? They don;t have anyone on that campus that can speak French or Portuguese? That doesn't make any sense.

Dude, you're way too obvious. The sad part is you've been a member here since 2003. So you've been trolling a competitor's board for 15 years. Let that sink in the next time you take a look in the mirror. Good lord man, get a life. Truly pathetic.
All this speculation about Preston and suspicion of current and past rules violations at KU is pretty ironic coming from fans of a school with Calipari as head coach. Of the two programs, only one has a head coach who led programs at multiple schools that were investigated and sanctioned by the NCAA. LOL
What a dismal life you must lead. Come to another team's board and dig up a thread that is at least 25 to 30 pages deep
As far as I remember only one player on the floor did not graduate high school in the 2008 championship game lol.
Derrick Rose graduated high school
maybe do a little digging and see who had proven falsified transcripts. NCAA plays a little game called hypocrisy.
Any chance it is due to eligibility concerns over his time at Advanced Prep International, the same school Terrance Ferguson and Trevon Duval played at. Ferguson was ruled ineligible and most said Duval would never play either until he signed with Duke. Maybe the NCAA never cleared him.
And of the two programs, only one was sanctioned for “Lack of Institutional Control” and had their basketball team placed on probation by the NCAA within just the last 10 years or so. Here’s a hint, it wasn’t Kentucky.
The NCAA didn't have to clear him Rat Face called them and said it would be ok !
Face it, it's the Jailhawks continually having character issues, not Kentucky. You know it, we know it. Self keeps recruiting questionable kids and that's obvious.
Maybe if Self would tell your fans what is going on instead of lying to you, we wouldn’t have to speculate.
Take your bullshit and go talk shit to the mid major that drops your dirty team in the second round.
