There are a lot of rumors around saying that Pat Forde is working on a major story about Kentucky and that's why he left ESPN because they wouldn't allow it to continue because of the damage that it could cause to a conference that has major connections with them. He then went to Yahoo who doesn't care about stuff like that.

It's believed that this will have as big or a bigger impact than the Reggie Bush yahoo story did on USC.

Let me guess, Calipari is a cheater. They will forfeit final four appearances. Calipari will move on to Indiana or Arizona or UCLA where the same thing will continue to happen.

Calipari will never be at Indiana.

That's sad. The bigger story here should be about ESPN once again potentially trying to silence a major story due to their connections with all of the major sports organizations. Why don't they just get rid of all of their journalists and just focus on live coverage and game analysis?

Mostly because they won't pay him $5M/yr. Otherwise, they would still hire him.

No, they would have hired him before the Sampson ordeal. But they won't hire a known cheater now.

I think that will be a major story once this hits.

I think ESPN and the SEC have a $2 billion dollar contract, and that includes a lot of basketball games. I almost can't blame them for not wanting to be in the business of exposing things like this.

I do find it amusing how many Texas commercials they now run on ESPNU. I wonder why they do that?
