I heard yesterday that UKy has had level 3 NCAA violations. Guys getting paid from a hospital and not working. They didn’t say whether it was football or basketball.

How in the world does a program like UK get caught doing this? A no-show job--especially if they can be labelled as Remote or Hybrid--is one of the easiest things to get away with.

But more to the point, how does the NCAA think they've got any jurisdiction over this? Gritty's right, all the hospital has to do is frame it as NIL.

It would be nothing to have a nice color pamphlet out the same day with the new hospital slogan -"Wildcats Care" - showing the players in scrubs and with stethoscopes around their necks. NIL all the time.

Those highlights remind me that, for all his faults and reversion to mediocrity, what a good x & o coach Weber was. LOT of good passes and decisions in those plays. Some good defense there too.

It’s hard to imagine any hospital system being flush with money right now. Contrary to popular belief, hospital systems across the country are still reeling from the impact of treating COVID patients (especially rural hospitals). Thanks to our wonderful health care system and insurance companies tightening the screws on reimbursement, hospitals really only make money on elective surgeries, which were all but canceled during COVID peaks. Not to mention the nursing shortage and many knock-on effects from that too. Just not a great look for the hospital either here, from a publicity standpoint.

I have a question about that new practice facility. In the pictures that I've seen of the gym area there doesn't seem to be any place for spectators. In the 'old' gym there was a balcony for spectators and there were typically a couple times during the year when we could get in to watch practice. Does that 'old' gym still exist or is it gone? Is there space in the 'new' gym to watch from?

Appears to be above and behind the picture taken by Goodman. This is a pic from a model of what the final product will look like.
