What's this?

Unsure your obsession with trying to "get" me...


But no, Roccaforte was exiled, but not in the same vein as the others. Roccaforte was exiled in the midst of the FBI probe into college basketball and Landers Nolley falling under the scrutiny of the NCAA for flagged test scores.

He was exiled because with the intense scrutiny it meant he wouldnt be able to operate in the same way on the recruiting trail as he was before. And should there be evidence of impropriety, Roccaforte would be an easy scapegoat. He went from the lead recruiter for VT to a non-recruiting position with ECU, before eventually being moved into a recruiting role. And now with the FBI heat off college basketball, its a good time to bring him back into the fold like old times.

I apologize to waste what undoubtedly took lots of your time to dig that one up. Maybe next time youll really nail me...
