So, here's the latest BS for you sad people to believe, actually or not:

Kentucky recruit Enes Kanter, a 6"11" power forward slated to be a part of the upcoming Wildcat team, reportedly received more than $100,000 in cash and benefits while he was playing for a professional team in Turkey over the last 3 years. Nedim Karakas, the GM for Fenerbahce Ulker, has told the New York Times that he has handed over banking and housing records to the NCAA, which is reviewing Kanter's amateur status. A spokeman and advisor to Kanter, Max Ergul, has not denied the accusation, but rather has equated it to being similar to a player who attended a prep school in the U.S., and received a scholarship and expenses.

Kanter's expenses seems to have included a $6,500/month salary during the previous year.


Of course, we can take this with a grain of salt. Not only is nothing proven yet, but as we all know, neither Kentucky nor John Calipari would ever, ever cheat. No, not ever ever.
