Apropos to Coach G's success in securing transfers, here is a link to a highly recommended article in the online magazine Slate about the hypocrisy of the NCAA and its college football and basketball coaches when it comes to transfer rules: www.slate.com/articles/sports/sports_nut/2013/07/ncaa_transfer_rule_college_coaches_can_block_their_former_players_from_getting.htmlIt is astonishing that you have these self-rightous jackasses whining about what are, pretty draconian transfer rules and their push to make them even more punishing. Bo Ryan in particular comes off as a real first-class jerk. As a special bonus, the article contains a hot-link referencing the story about Martooni and O'Brien. Great read.

I love college hoops but I really wouldn't be opposed to every single D-1 athlete going on strike.

But they are getting paid! Nerlens Noel got a $40K education last year and all it cost him was like $5MM.

At least Nerlens Noel didn't end up with the Pelicans in New Orleans.

Agreed with Mr. Levin until he just couldn't help himself by getting political ala our friend Steve. Some people can't help themselves.
