That spare show after Swain...One and Done...is squawking about a cheating allegation...Texas player under Barnes...they cited an article from "The Chronicle"...searched online and found nothing. Anybody else have anything? :dunno:
Seriously though...
Are these allegations bad enough for the NCAA to get involved, and if so, are they bad enough for Barnes to get hit with a show cause?
Says a player was cheating on a test and the instructor that saw it ended up passing him anyway. The article doesn't say that she was forced to pass him or that he wasn't disciplined. Maybe he was flunked on that test but was still able to do satisfactorily overall. News organizations will run with this newsletter article if there's some kind of conspiracy or possible fraud.
One player who was supposedly seen cheating on a test (and who soon after that left the university) is far from academic fraud. If there is any chance that the school or basketball program was doing anything improper as well then there will be a huge media chit storm starting today. So far it's just a story by a writer for a higher education newsletter... not exactly the Woodward and Bernstein in the Washington Post. Yet.
