Did any one else have a problem with Colin's last sentance...some were seen wearing adidas? The photo was from the '09 season as stated on their website, and there were a hodge podge of shoes nikes, adidas and others. This photo was probably taken preseason '09 as most websites are set up before even practicice is allowed, and most likely the kids came in in their own shoes. Just no need for that comment in my book. See photo below and judge for yourself... <img src="http://www.broward.edu/athletics/Supporting%20Content/23485_Men's%20Basketball%20Team%202009.jpg"> -- Duquesne Dukes Basketball Forum

In reply to: Abdul Rahman 's message, "If I read Colin D.'s article correctly it appears the compliance guy found out after the fact, and then only as a result of the student manager needing reimbursment for his out of pocket costs. It sure has been a rough couple of weeks off the court ( Shoe-gate, DS suspension, EE injury, Mott JC player recruitment situation, etc ... )" on Saturday, November 20, 08:03:39am

cLK, Colin said "Facebook page" which is diff than the school's website (NT) -- Alan, Saturday, November 20, 09:14:37am
- Alan, this was the only photo I saw. Have you seen the photo on Facebook, and is it different? I could not find the photo. (NT) -- CLK, Saturday, November 20, 09:22:54am
  - If this is the photo from his face book page it still proves nothing. Still a hodge poge of shoes nikes adidas and others. Still in my opinion no need for that comment. Let the facts come out. I chose to believe Ron's intentions were good. (NT) -- CLK, Saturday, November 20, 09:34:40am
    - $360.00!!!! You would risk NCAA violations for $360.00!!!! (NT) -- SKIDDYBALL, Saturday, November 20, 09:43:58am
    - Looks like Colin's article was either premature or incomplete. My only point of confusion is to wht the manager wouldve been let go--instead of RE saying "this is all just a simple misunderstanding". Think of it, the kid spent 360 of his 4000 earnings to pay for postage. Not chump change to a starving student. And too much to ask the student to eat. I expect Texas Tech to submit the same violation to the NCAA. Colin--pass this on to your Texas journalist brethren (NT) -- Alan, Saturday, November 20, 09:44:23am
      - Well, we are now on ESPN's BB web site for possible "secondary" violations. Nice job. (NT) -- SKIDDYBALL, Saturday, November 20, 10:14:30am
        I am getting a bad feeling. Why do I think going to the Consol arena might be the highlight of the season? (NT) -- Seen on Miltenberger St, Saturday, November 20, 10:32:21am
      - Oh yes, blame Colin.....yes, that is the right thing to do... he made all of this up on his own. (NT) -- DuLaw, Saturday, November 20, 10:58:40am
        You're a law student? Really? If that's how you read and process information, you wouldn't even make a good paralegal. Just sayin'. (NT) -- El Duque, Saturday, November 20, 12:42:56pm
    - Take a look at the photo on the P-G site today. Johnson and Talley have different shoes. Talley's shoes match the ones worn by the Robert Morris player. Just saying. (NT) -- El Duque, Saturday, November 20, 10:21:22am
      - The Broward coach is trying to do something good to help support our troops, and clearly Ron is not the only coach trying to help. DU may have violated some stupid rule, but to imply that the Broward coach is not being honest or is on the take is very poor. (NT) -- CLK, Saturday, November 20, 10:29:35am
        Since K-State and Texas Tech were also involved, my guess is ... -- El Duque, Saturday, November 20, 10:48:11am
    - I wonder if the NCAA allows its basketball players to wear Airborne tee shirtrs. I doubt that any one of these guys has earned his jump wings. (NT) -- Stevie, Sunday, November 21, 07:42:44pm
