College hoops fans: If you thought your school was completely clean, the fact that DEPAUL offered $200,000 to a recruit and didn't get him should be eye opening.
BREAKING: Former University of Louisville head coach says DePaul offered to pay a five-star basketball recruit $200,000 to play for the Blue Demons in 2017. This story is developing and will be updated.

@670TheScore @Bernstein_McK .. and less we forget, in 2005 DePaul was a year removed from playing UConn in the 2nd round of the NCAA Tournament AND joining the Big East. They could have had their pick of head coaches - and they hired goofy Jerry Wainwright because he was from Berwyn.
@670TheScore @Bernstein_McK Does DePaul even acknowledge the fact Purnell literally took them for 10 million dollars? He told friends he was taking the job because it was his 'retirement package' - and from day one he coached like he was already retired. Blaming his failures on All-State Arena is absurd.
DePaul athletic director Jean Lenti Ponsetto had some clueless comments to the Tribune, and that really got @Bernstein_McK going.

Why can’t DePaul do what Loyola did?
That was how I started an interesting 45-minute interview with DePaul AD Jean Lenti Ponsetto on the state of the basketball program. Column https://t.co/Di8DDyaZyf
Reading the Q&A in the Tribune with Jean Lenti Ponsetto, I wonder if she's arrogant, tone deaf, stupid or all of the above. She bagged on Loyola for playing in a lesser conference, praised past coaches and trashed the talent of former players.
