Is Wikipedia the LCC reference guide? I think you Card fans should accept it and move on.

May I ask what you are talking about? I posted a new development, this lawsuit, for discussion. It seems interesting to me. I have already posted my thoughts on it, that it seems frivolous. If you like you may do the same? The link was for those of whom are unaware of the law.

Lighten up. You may as well laugh while the house of cards....

Cheers

It's probably the school's counsel that is scared silly over this and doesn't want him to talk.

Just say two words...No Comment...also if the legal team is "scared" why send two players while your "Leader" is absent...

I think it's quite normal to send a couple players (correct me if wrong).

They may be required to send someone, so sending the captains sounds reasonable. And since the senior captains are both recent transfers, they can talk fairly freely about what they haven't seen (instead of "no comment").

As for Pitino saying the NCAA wont let him talk, I would like to know how Roy Williams was able to talk after the academic scandal. Not saying it didn't happen, just wondering what the difference is.

I'm not familiar with unc case enough to know if there were criminal investigations going on at the same time which could lead to one or multiple arrests. That's one thing that may or may not be different. If Powell is found to have been pimping her 15 yr old daughter, she could be facing up to life in prison.

UPDATE 11/09/2015
wdrb.com/story/30473256/defamation-new-plaintiffs-join-lawsuit-against-katina-powell-alleging-their-reputations-were-damaged

Seems the Ladies mentioned in Katina Powell's book say it's False allegations about Them, and that No Sex was involved at all, as well as No recruits were involved , now are suing Katina Powell for defamation of character as well as a loss of value of Their degrees .This story is coming unglued rapidly.

There seems to be strong denial by the women as they join the lawsuit against Powell. They're calling it a "fraudulent and deceitful scam," & that they never gave their "consent or permission to use their name, stage name, alias, photo, image, and/or likeness for this false, outrageous, horrendous, atrocious and heinous sex scandal." I don't think they are denying sex but they are denying that they were paid for it?.

http://www.cardchronicle.com/2015/11/9/9...in-lawsuit

Eight new plaintiffs have joined student Kyle Hornback in her suit against Powell, who gained notoriety when her book, "Breaking Cardinal Rules: Basketball and the Escort Queen," was published weeks ago. In her book, Powell, 42, has claims that she hosted 22 stripping and sex parties from 2010 to 2014 inside Billy Minardi Hall, the on-campus dorm for athletes. Powell has said that former Louisville graduate assistant Andre McGee arranged the parties and paid her $10,000 for supplying dancers.

On Oct. 22, Hornback filed a lawsuit against both Powell and her publisher, IBJ Book Publishing, LLC., claiming that the book damaged the value of a University of Louisville degree. Hornback claimed that Powell's "malicious, willful, wanton, and outrageous" actions have limited Hornback's ability to find a job after graduation and pay back student loans.

...

The suit has also been expanded to include Dick Cady, Powell's co-author, as a defendant.

Nash, Richardson, Burnley, Martin and Bolden say that Powell, Cady and IBJ Book Publishing wrongfully label them as prostitutes -- a claim the five of them refute.

"In the book, during interviews with the media, and appearances on various talk shows, Defendants impute and accuse these women of engaged in prostitution with recruits and students of the University of Louisville," the lawsuit states. "These allegations are absolutely false. These Plaintiffs never gave any consent or permission to use their name, stage name, alias, photo, image, and/or likeness for this false, outrageous, horrendous, atrocious and heinous sex scandal."

Calling the allegations a "fraudulent and deceitful scam," the suit blasts Cady and IBJ Book Publishing for their failure to, "perform or engage in any due diligence to determine whether Powell's allegations were true or false."

As far as the NCAA goes, I don't think it matters a whole lot whether they were paid. Since they're not contesting the other claims made by Powell, then sex/strippers were still "provided" by representatives of the school, and it happened on campus.

That in and of itself however, is NOT necessarily an impermissible benefit per the NCAA rules.

The old standby lack of institutional control

Let's wait for the truth to come out. With at least 4 active investigations going on at both the local and federal levels in addition to the NCAA, I think it is fair to say that the truth will emerge.

Having been blasted on OTL, GMA, gotlieb, CBS Sports, The View, local channels, on radio galor both local and national, I'm turning the other cheek.

We will take responsibility for whatever we did wrong and make it right 10000x over.

All I'm saying is, let's get the truth and we haven't got it yet.

No, hiring strippers wouldn't automatically be an NCAA impermissible benefit. Recruit entertainment is allowable, provided it doesn't exceed a certain amount pretty recruit, and is a type of entertainment "available and affordable by the regular student body".

There's a very good chance, once the math is done, that those parties (even with strippers) didn't exceed the standard.

Well said & I 100% agree. IBG has recently turned evidence in to a grand jury & by reports the investigation could potentially be completed in January. That's probably wishful thinking though.

Hang in their Louisville. When it's not your school involved, people always fail to see just how grueling the whole media concentrating on everything period is. It's especially irritating to have that go on for months and months with your school contently being ripped, the people you had come to respect being blamed constantly (sometimes justly, sometimes not, but rarely while giving a full picture) and then knowing afterward you are going to hear opposing fanbases saying you "got off easy." The one thing to be thankful for is this broke in the fall rather than the spring or the commentators who have nothing else to talk about would have been on this story 10x more.

I agree with the sentiment.

But this isn't an individual we're talking about. So the standard "innocent until proven guilty" shouldn't be a requirement.

The facts will come out in time. But the facts that have come out so far (i.e. the other women involved not denying their actions, only denying that they were paid) are pretty damning.
