There are no squeaky clean major college programs. Unfortunately, this isn't a surprise. Just some are better at hiding it than others.

Ten years ago Duke was recruiting a player who went on to play in the NBA. A Duke grad happened to get this recruits mother a high paying job. The player coincidentally enough just so happened to sign at Duke. Sure, the player wasn't *directly* paid, but it doesn't take an FBI employee to know what's going on.

Duke isn't the only one.

This also happens at major college football programs

Starting to get excited thinking about our upset chances and how big of a story it would be if we win - Louisville will be top 10 still, we are their first DI/real game, we play Lafayette two days before, they will be reeling with at least one ineligible star freshmen, possibly entirely new coaching staff, distractions with the investigation, etc.

Just looked up flight and hotel... only problem is that it is 3 days before wife's bday.

As long as you aren't planning to hang out with Jollay, decent odds you can avoid turning the trip into a three-day bender and missing your wife's birthday.

Better have a backup plan ready just in case.

Also reduces chances of bringing home a nasty bug from the Ville.

We are Louisville's third home game, not counting their red-white scrimmages. Does anybody know if their games against Kentucky Wesleyan and Bellamine are scrimmages or real games? With the sanctions, I wouldn't be surprised if there was additional press there, just to see how they are doing. This can only help us with exposure.

We are their season-opener -- if they can still field a team by then.

If we win, would you consider that the biggest regular season win in school history? Sure, beating UVA or Mississippi State was good, but Louisville is *traditionally* on another level.
If we win there will always be an asterisk on the victory. They will never give us credit if we face a decimated team.
