Gotta say I was surprised to see Duke and Notre Dame among the programs listed, and I guess a few others. Sadly, most didn't surprise me at all.

I would personally be surprised if a single team in the Power 6 conferences is NOT named. If anyone doesn't get named, it likely just means they got lucky and didn't get caught.

Going to be fascinating to see how this plays out heading into March. Sounds like many of the named players will not play starting tonight. The question is will their teams be banned from postseason play (or have wins this season vacated thereby keeping them out) or will only impacted players be banned? If the latter, how does it impact seeding?

Vegas just pulled all futures betting on NCAA Basketball down because of all the uncertainty.

NCAA $hoe Scandal

I don't see the NCAA taking any action that quickly (e.g., banning teams from this year's tournament), as it seems to be taking the approach of first allowing the FBI investigation to proceed to its conclusion.

That said, many schools will likely err on the side of caution and bench implicated players to avoid the risk of having wins vacated.

Shaq's son just decommitted from U of Arizon due to the Shoe Scandal. He is going to UCLA instead:

Hard to believe, but this scandal is still unfolding. There is a bribery trial going on right now that involved Brian Bowen, who was a big time recruit to Louisville, along with a financial planner who admits to facilitating the cash payment(s):
