Baylor under investigation by the NCAA

here's my take. Baylor discovered Perea in Colombia. They recommended he attend high school in the states. They weren't "smart" enough to place him I guess. Indiana weaseled their way in there with Perea. They got someone close to this Adams guy on staff at Indiana to help IU have the inroads to Perea.

Who knows the full context of the text. But I'm guessing Morefield was upset that the rug was being pulled out from underneath him. It looks bad on the surface. But seems to me like Indiana orchestrated/set this up to try and eliminate Baylor from consideration. I'm sure the Indiana sources leaked this to the media. Looks genius on the surface- have to admit.

I don't know the answer to this perhaps someone does. If a kid from overseas comes to the states and has to have a legal guardian (in this case the AAU coach who wants to steer him to Indiana)... what happens when the kid turns 18? Doesn't his mom still have to sign the LOI?

He would probably get a school visa just like everyone else who goes to school from an international country.

What is Baylor going to do about all the other violations that exist (they exist everywhere) when the NCAA starts looking at things? Given the severity of the last set of sanctions, I would be very nervous if I were a Baylor fan. Fortunately, I am not so I can just sit back and watch the show.

My guess is the NCAA totally screws Baylor. It just isn't fair to Duke, KU, Kentucky, Michigan State, North Carolina and other well established programs for Baylor to compete. The very nerve of it practically demands some form of sanctions. I would look for a complete lack of due process followed by an arbitrary and capricious decision that penalizes Baylor.
