While UNC, well you know! Thanks for the link. And to Seeking 6 for the breaking news. Ray Meyer. Grew up watching his teams on WGN in Chicago. One of the most genuine and nicest guys to ever coach the college game. Must have been one reason he was able to coach Depaul for ....... 42 years ! Unthinkable in this day and age. Especially, when there have been discussions on this very great board about Coach Miller. After just two years. Also, Joey Meyer was a good kid. Just could not live up to the reputation set down by his father. Even then, Joey lasted like 13 years at Depaul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So hard to tell anyone under the age of say 35 how good of a program Depaul was back in the day. Besides IU they were always who I cheered for growing up. Vacating wins? They’ve had wins to vacate?

DePaul was a fun team to watch with Aguirre and Cummings and them losing their first game in the 81 tournament helped open the IU bracket that year. Actually there NostraScottus, they had byes in '81...DePaul lost in the 2nd round. And fwiw the Demons were pretty dang good with Dave Corzine.

You know more than I do about them, geez that Chicago talent used to fuel them. Local kids wanted to play for the local school. What in the hell happened?

That could be big news. Saw that too, potentially pretty big news. I know Pitino still denies being involved, mainly through his mouthpiece Dick Vitale, but if it really a booster backing all of this, then I highly doubt Pitino didn't have some knowledge. He might not have known any of the details, in a 'the less coach knows the better' type of thing, but he would have had to know there was stuff going on.

In order to get infractions, a coach does not have to know that a booster (Mark Adam's) bought stickers years before he coached at IU. A booster paying for hookers? No way does that fall under the NCAA's policy that a HC is now responsible for every thing that goes on in his program. Even if he does not know. Being facetious here. Different strokes for different folks should be the NCAA's saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
