It would be hilarious if Cornell somehow pulled this off...all of the boosters would ask why they had to give Callipari 500k to pay Cousins and Wall among others when a bunch of white guys from the sticks can beat them.

This is the most polarizing matchup since...Kentucky/Texas Western. If Cornell wins, do we get a movie about it?

I'm not a fan of Shaughnessy, but the UK argument is bullshit. Sure, the Ivy League is representative of elitism and privilege, but you cannot succeed as a student-athlete at that level without putting in an incredible amount of work in the classroom and the gym. None of this was handed to them and they are undoubtedly an underdog regardless of the opportunities that they have.

On a side note, UK fans lose their right to complain about ANYTHING after selling their souls to bring in Calipari. There's about a 1% chance that if they win tonight it will actually mean anything because, in a couple of years, none of these wins will count.

The only racist organization that has abused blacks more than slavery is the NCAA Nazis.

Who makes billions of the great black football and basketball athletes and rigs the deal with Stern and Goodell of the Pros?

Please...Bobby Knight was right 25 years ago about the NCAA and followed every rule more than any coach and taught and made stiffer player rules.

The NCAA ASSCLOWNS goes after North Dakota for the best hockey uni on earth honoring the Sioux and then gies away a few nice floors.

The NCAA is a CABAL run by thieves.

They should pay Wall and Rose for packing the stands.

Not everybody is a stident athlete and where do these kids play if not for Division I NCAA?

The NCAA has different rules for baseball and hockey with the draft. Ever ask why?

MONEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
FALL 2011 WILL BE THE BEST EVER FOR BC SPORTS AT THE HEIGHTS!

They do pay them. Its called free tuition. The fact that they choose not to take advantage of that opportunity is up to them. At minimum its a free opportunity to audition for the NBA. If they don't like it Brandon Jennings showed there is another route by playing overseas for a year.
