From Sam Mellinger:
Will KU coach Bill Self have courage to make change in wake of Adidas trial revelations?
...Change can happen.... Nobody is better positioned for this than Self, a Hall of Fame inductee and national champion who’s already made tens of millions and can make even more in the NBA whenever he chooses.... The NCAA’s arrogant and delusional rules have always incentivized those involved to color outside the lines. This is not a new phenomenon.... This has always been college basketball’s ugly and inconvenient truth....the FBI has been convinced to spend time and resources prosecuting actions that benefit the situation’s closest stand-ins for victims, who are criminalized only by rules that have never been sensible or fair to anyone but those who create them....Self knows this is his sport’s reality, and so do North Carolina’s Roy Williams and Duke’s Mike Krzyzewski....The rules are not broken by merely the few — and the rules that aren’t broken are seemingly few....This system needs an overhaul...That change can start now, and Self or anyone else with major-program power can be the catalyst.
