Jahvon Quinerly, Hudson Catholic, One of the recruits who accepted money to go to Arizona

[anon_0k9zlfz6lz9oy]

The craziest part of this whole damn thing to me is that he only cost a measly $15,000. Like WHAT!!! Is that really the price for a 5* point guard because TRUST ME **** a wire, i'm showing up at the doorstep with a bag, that shit aint traceable.
$15k for a program changing player?!?! HELLLLLOOOOOOOO. UNREAL!

Peanuts! An unnamed B1G school in Michigan, but not in E Lansing, was offering more than that 30 years ago.

The "story" is that Lew Alcindor ended up at UCLA with Wooden for $125,000 - St. Johns (with Joe Lapchick) "only" offered $100,000. That was in 1967 dollars - or about that date.

The price offered (not by Auburn) - ON TAPE FOR GOODNESS SAKES - for Cam Newton was something like $250,000 or $300,000 - in the form of a loan to help build Cam Newton's father's church (he was a minister of some sorts, I think). Still cannot believe the NCAA did not rule Cam Newton ineligible after the fact, which would have meant Auburn vacating all its wins with him, its national championship with him, and Newton giving up his Heisman Trophy. Their reasoning was there was no evidence CAM NEWTON HIMSELF knew about the money offers. This despite the extremely crystal clear NCAA rules that state a player is ruled ineligible if he OR HIS FAMILY are even just OFFERED "benefits" that ordinary students would not be reasonably expected to receive - and the NCAA rules are actually specific that it does not matter if the student athlete knew or not, or whether the "benefits" were delivered - just offered.

Really, I'm in for 15k too

Was told by 3 different people Kyle Anderson's Dad got 100k from UCLA

Where is the report quinerly is one of the kids? It isn’t good to spread rumors on a kid that the facts aren’t aligned to. We know book was recruiting him but also were other assistants on their staff

I believe that. UCLA's cheating is deep. Those Wooden championships don't happen without some serious, serious grease.

 

[Plum Street]

It's a shame that rutgers spent it's money so unwisely over the years

JC to PAC 12 pipeline.

No wonder why RU hasn't been able to join the club.

GO RU

Where isnt the report is the better question. It's every where

 

[RU fanatic]

Didn’t see the whole indictment but read the portion on an Arizona best writers article about it which is wild.

The funny part about this whole story is that in some cases is there were actual checks used. Guys, there's a reason why it's called a bag man

If you connect the dots, it points to JQ. Remember, he was sure to announce for Villanova and Arizona came out of nowhere. I think the $15K may have been an additional request on top of what was originally offered (and taken).

Rutgers spends too much on buyouts for fired coaches and administrators to be able to afford paying players.

Nova has lost 3-4 guys at the wire in the last 2 years to both UA and Miami.

All were considered Nova leans.

And Duke, UNC, Kentucky, Kansas, 'Cuse, UConn aren't?

According to NJSIAA rules if this is true Quinerly will not be able to play high school ball this coming season. He also might not be able to play in the NBA for at least 2 years as at this time a player must finish at least one year of college and he might not even be able to play in college. This is such a huge mistake on his part as well as others.

Incorrect. A player must be 19 years old during the calendar year of the draft to be eligible. There is no stipulation that they "must finish at least one year of college".

I believe their HS class must have also graduated. Oh, and this applies to American kids and foreign kids who attend HS in the U.S.

Exactly! That's what we pay to prop up CVS each day for practice!

 

[knights1212]

jrh51, You are probably correct. I do know according to NJSIAA rules if an athlete accepts money they are considered no longer an amateur and will be ineligible. I coached high school for 40 years. I will be shocked if Quinerly can somehow get to play for any high school in New Jersey this coming season. I have no idea when his birthday is or how old he is.
