I’m a Purdue alum, heartbreaking game, and I still want to buy this Guy guy something for his wedding now.

While I definitely don’t agree with any of the rule, I can see why the compliance person at the school freaked out: A normal college student doesn’t have 102k Twitter followers and tweeting out your registry there certainly feels like he was trying to capitalize off fans sending gifts. However, #DeathtotheNCAA
Been there
Would have saved Pete Carroll quite the hassle if he could have just given Reggie Bush a house as a wedding gift.
It’s dumb, but I can see why the compliance officer might worry. I mean, once Calipari hears about this, I wouldn’t be surprised if half his players got “engaged” and all his “uncles” and “cousins” start getting him “wedding presents” off his “registry.” I bet lots of coaches are kicking themselves for not thinking of…
Isn’t giving recruits “the beyond” what got Louisville in trouble?
“Absolutely not. In fact, our curriculum is specifically designed so they don’t even accidentally read about it in books.”
Guy is still permitted to receive any bed and bath items on the registry, but the NCAA did rule the Beyond part impermissible.
Virginia really had Guy over a crate & barrel
Goddamn, are these kids even allowed to look at money before they go pro???
This guy Guy needs to take advantage of this and list “food”, “clothes”, and “shelter” on their registry.

i didn’t think the podcast name was that bad, but what really threw me off was every march madness article only reading “virginia is the antithesis of everything good in the observable universe and should be nuked from orbit” 100 consecutive times. their hateful conduct is pretty disappointing TBH
As a Saluki grad, I root for Matt Painter when it comes this time of year, but I guess if he had to lose, Tony Bennett seems like a good choice, especially considering what happened last year. Hope he gets y’all to the Final Four eventually, though.
It happens. That was such an iconic game, it feels like it should have been Final Four. And then with us all getting older and all, it’s hard to remember everything. I was too young for that game to cut me through the heart, but I really enjoyed the “revenge” UK got six years later. Still my favorite basketball game…
If there’s one thing I associate with Deadspin, it’s their constant Virginia hate. Why I can’t get enough of the TonyBennettSucksCast that they air every week.
You guys must be absolutely heartbroken that UVA finally reached their potential. Thoughts and prayers.
This isn’t to take away from how great Zion is, because he is unbelievable.
Sorry, man. I can only assume it involves some late 1800s Reconstruction deal with Satan and the Duke family. Coach K had to become a blood initiate.
