The John Calipari Mud-Slinging Continues

Marc Schlabach is reporting that former Memphis Tiger Robert Dozier cheated on the SAT exam. Schlabach, a Georgia grad, says UGA denied Dozier admission after he scored a 720 on his second attempt — 540 points lower than his earlier score — suggesting a “stand in” initially took the test for Dozier. He ended up at Memphis, where he helped lead the Tigers to the 2008 Final Four. If the NCAA Committee on Infractions finds that John Calipari, or a member of his former staff, played a role in these standardized test infractions, harsh penalties will certainly follow.

    If Cal was involved in this garbage I really hope they take a bite out of his ass. of course, I doubt that will happen now that he’s college hoops’ Golden Boy recruiter and has a team in Kentucky that looks like a McDonald’s All American squad.

    Robert Dozier didn’t earn the right to represent the University of Memphis in athletic events. It is what it is. John Calipari didn’t deserve to represent UM as well if he was aware of all of this. And he was.

    Ghetto University every thing is under the table in Memphis but while they’re at it maybe they need to take a look at The University of………………………

    Look, there’s only one U of M. That’s Michigan. Everyone else should be called by their name, appropriately.

    Wow…looks like the BIG GUNS are after coach Cal. They’re locked and loaded for an ol’ fashion shoot-out. It’s gonna be a thriller.

    Wait a minute…kids are cheating on their SATs to get basketball scholarships and the school coaching staffs are helping them???

    Come on, get off your soapbox. This happens every single year at pretty much every major D-I sports program. Either make an example out of Calipari or stop wasting time with these indignant dog and pony shows.

    Get rid of the damn age minimum. It’s your fault if you inaccuartely assess a kids talent and get a Leon Smith, instead of Josh Smith. Adopt gymnastic or tennis rules and let them play. To quote the great thinker Kwame Brown “I’m old enough to die fighting for my country, but not responsible enough to sign a million dollar contract.”
