hahaha...the typical IU response so far

yes, IU did get Eric Gordon to decommit from Illinois (well..he forgot that part) and commit to Indiana in a very malicious manner by hiring close family friends to numerous positions within the program...congrats!

It appears the main reason Sampson was hired, despite his previous ethical shortcomings, was his potential to get Gordon.

Whether that was a good choice for IU is something that remains to be determined. It's looking bad right now.

Haha ok so I was just writing that impartially to stoker the fires, not to rub it in, but now I wish I had.

As for Sampson, I don't think many IU students/alumni have been happy with coaching choices starting with the Firing of Knight (maybe that's just me, who knows). Hopefully Sampson get's what's coming to him, but the University did it's own inquiry into all this and turned it over to the NCAA, I can't see them getting hit hard here.
