Around SBN: VIDEO: The Daily Show Talks Jeremy Lin

Not this this should be any surprise to anyone not a blind Kentucky fan willing to sell their soul to the devil to win a championship, but Calipari's star recruit John Wall's status as an amateur is under investigation.

The main issue is that his AAU coach is a certified agent. But come on, where there is smoke there is fire. Wall will probably get cleared since it is in the SEC and NCAA's financial interest to have him on the court, but I guarantee you this isn't the last we've heard of a Calipari recruit's eligibility issues.

Wow

REALLY? Calipari? An Inelligible recruit? Shocking.

He's not the only one:

According to the Associated Press:

Slive says that there are “amateur issues” surrounding Wall and Mississippi State freshman Renardo Sidney.

Notice how it was never an issue when Sidney was South Central’s prized recruit?

I understand just$c* is making a big recruiting push for LeBron James

Athletic Director Mike Garrett, speaking on condition of anonymity, said that there were no “amateur issues” surrounding James: “He didn’t play college ball, so he’s eligible. Period. End of story.” Again speaking on condition of anonymity, Mr. Garrett also added that LeBron’s mom and dad have accepted jobs as teachers at the institution, meaning that Lil Romeo’s will get to keep his scholarship.

IF he wasn't ineligible before he stepped foot on campus

he most certainly will be after a few months under Calamari’s “care”
