Says that DePaul and Creighton will be implicated, also will talk about recruitment of Isiah Whitehead during the trial.

Not only has DePaul provided zero value to the conference, but now they are implicated in a major college hoops scandal. :roll:

I'm assuming this is because we recruited Bowen for a long time, considering how his recruiting unfolded, I'd be shocked if we did anything wrong.

Any press is good press...and in top notch company. Perhaps we will get lucky and nab a top recruit
now that they know we're dirty. :o

"Implicated" !?? Irishdawg learned a new word. :roll:

What Wetzel said was:
During jury selection in college hoops scandal, a list of schools that may come up during trial was listed to jurors.
Includes: Arizona, Louisville, NC State, Miami, LSU, Oregon, DePaul, Creighton, Texas, Oklahoma State, USC. *


Quite a difference in verbage than being "implicated" in a situation/crime/scenario. And as I said earlier: all press/PR is good press/PR. ;)

*underline is my edit.

Wow! DePaul is being accused of offering Bowen $200,000.

You gotta consider the source herotodus. The alleged DePaul tidbit was an email from Rick Pitino. :lol:

Looks like the list will get longer as Adidas is geared to throw everyone they dealt with under the bus. ;)

Brian Bowen Sr claimed in court that Creighton assistant coach Preston Murphy offered him $100k and a good job for his son to attend Creighton. Oh boy.
