... So, Sunday during the Ohio State-Indiana basketball game, some Hoosier fans stopped by and took umbrage with the fact that Corey had called Kelvin Sampson “dirty” in his game preview. Turns out he was right. Wonder how they’re feeling today as news breaks that Indiana basketball is about to get dialed up for “major violations”.

... "probation" but not during Sampson's one-year "blackout"). Also, he was the recipient of about 10 three way calls that are the crux of the problem. Again, the truth is bad enough. Even if everything Sampson says is true, he did a remarkably bad job impressing upon his staff the significance of the sanctions. Nevertheless, is it asking too much for the media to report the basic findings, which were established months ago? The Associated Press? ESPN's report is more troubling. Andy Katz reports that the NCAA has characterized the violations as major. Whether that means ...

Kelvin Sampson Doesn’t Give a Shit About the Rules
Published 2/13/2008 by C. Brahkowski at Brahsome - Care To Get Nice?
Kelvin Sampson loves making phone calls to recruits. He loves it. Unfortunately for Coach Sampson, this isn’t ‘Nam, this is recruiting, there are rules. And even though the NCAA’s infraction committee often seems more like a team of monkeys than a formidable opponent to cheating, ::coughReggieBushcough::, every once in a while they try to flex a little muscle. Like when a skier wants to return punts, or when a coach has an itchy trigger finger. What’s unfortunate in this case, is that IU’s basketball ...

Published 2/13/2008 by Signal to Noise at SPORTSbyBROOKS
ESPN’s Andy Katz is reporting that Indiana coach Kelvin Sampson may have lied about phone calls when the university self-reported violations, meaning further problems for the beleaguered coach.
