"What happened to my rollover minutes?"So, Sunday during the Ohio State-Indiana basketball game, some Hoosier fans stopped by and took umbrage with the fact that Corey had called Kelvin Sampson "dirty" in his game preview.
Turns out Corey was right.
Wonder how they're feeling today as news breaks that Indiana basketball is about to get dialed up for "major violations".
Quoteth the WWL:
This new information that helped result in a major violations tag could put the season of Indiana (No. 12 ESPN/USA Today, No. 13 AP) under a cloud of uncertainty and the career of Sampson as well.
I'm not huge into schadenfreude.. actually, what am I saying -- I love it and this joy in the sorrow of others at its finest.
Plus, at the very least, 11W is now covered on the libel front. And that's a good thing because our legal defense fund has been spent towards the annual March Madness Vegas trip we'll be hitting up next month.

577 illegal phone calls? Holy smokes...that's a ton of time on the phone. No wonder he's upset about his rollover minutes.
wutev, u think that 577 illegal phone calls is "cheating"? OMG Well wut about O'Brien blah blah blah blah try to deflect attention away from serial cheater of a coach blah blah blah insert reference to how great Indiana basketball is and how us Ohioans don't know what it's like blah blah blah another extraneous O'Brien reference.
LOL i'm jus here on a blog of another website to defend my coach because, apparently, I have nothing more productive to do LOL
wutev, I meant to say blog another rival team at the end. my mistake.
My brain hurts
Just a reminder to anyone making reference to Jim O'Bcheater. When it was discovered he loaned the money to a potential recruit, he was promptly fired and OSU put themselves on a post-season ban for a year. I think any Buckeye fan will curse his name, since we had to remove the 1999 Final Four banner and his last season they were 13-16.
Therefore, I don't think any type of comparison is valid, unless of course Indiana fires Sampson.
Exactly Corey. And please put a disclaimer beside anything that IUNUMBA1LOL posts, I tried to read it but had to quit because I started bleeding out of my ears.
Gawd, I get irritated with people who use the internet to explore the lower limits of language and grammar. Show some pride, for Pete's sake.
I completely understand why Indiana chose to part ways with Bobby Knight, so my opposition to Sampson has nothing to do with any allegiance to the former regime. No one, though - even Knight's harshest critics - can accuse him of running a dirty program, circumventing NCAA rules, or failing to graduate his players.
Indiana was languishing as an also-ran in the Big T(elev)en, and chose to go after a coach they thought could deliver good athletes and lots of wins. But why you elect to sully your good name with a coach who is incapable of playing by the most basic of rules is beyond me. You can win and adhere to the code of conduct.
And folks around the Big T(elev)en say OSU fans care about nothing more than winning? Geez.
Indiana fan is already calling for Bobby Knight's return.
http://www.insidethehall.com/ has pretty good coverage and reactions of fans right before they jump off the Sampson bandwagon.
Who's in bigger jeopardy? Whose fan base is more disgusted with them?
Indiana's Sampson or Kentucky's Gillespie?
Sampson. UK will blame everything on Tubby for the next 5 years.
