I've followed Rose for some time as he was a Chicago guy and it was huge local news here downstate (I'm in UI's back yard) when he opted to leave state to go to Memphis.

This story has been brewing for a few months but it's pretty stunning to see a big time program get hit with major penalties. And of course, this will be Calipari's second vacated final four appearance.

Weird off-season in college basketball. The Pitino drama and now this.
