NCAA Violation

Does this have to do with booker?

It was money.. Booster gave Yoyo cash to pass along to the players in Bahamas.

Yo-Yo had to know better. He just thought he could get away with it and it cost him his job.

Maybe we can chalk up the poor performance in the first half against Washington to news that yo yo was fired.

Here is the story from DOK:

Where there's smoke there's fire.

We agree on that I bet this isn't the last we hear of this incident. Not good.

Very unlikely this is a first offense.

Hope the OU booster is banned for life.

This is what a connected poster on another site reported:

It was reported by a walk-on player and compliance checked into it. The players in question gave back the money and he was fired. It was all self reported immediately. This is the second time this has happened. It happened in Europe as well. They were two weeks out of probation for goodness sake. It's been on the DL for a while but people kept asking around what happened to him and the smoke started turning into fire so they had to release the info.

Yo Yo is an idiot and hope he realizes the damage this could cause OU.

Good grief. What an idiot.

 

[okcsooner83]

If Yo Yo was involved the first time in Europe, why wasn't he fired then?

Good question

I'm really surprised Yo-Yo was a part of something like this, disappointing to say the least.

Gonna hear the words "Lack of Institutional Control" being thrown around if this was really a 2nd occurrence.

 

[MercedeSooner]

You are a douchebag Jozef - this is the last thing our program needs.

Not to excuse it, but couldn't this be as simple as a booster giving a kid some extra spending money at an out of country event. Same goes for the Europe incident. I guess the real concern is that it's happening back in country as well. I doubt it goes beyond Yo Yo though. These guys have been doing this together for a long time. Kruger wouldn't stand for it.
