"[If] and when he returns to college, Kelly would come with newly defined baggage thanks to the ongoing FBI investigation into college basketball revealed [in late September].
It has been almost 4½ years since Kelly was sanctioned by the NCAA after he had left for the Philadelphia Eagles. He was slapped with "failure to monitor" in the infamous Will Lyles affair. Even worse, Kelly was handed an 18-month show-cause penalty -- basically in abstentia -- after he went to the NFL.
Oregon was accused of paying $25,000 to Lyles, a shadowy 7-on-7 coach, in exchange for his guiding players to the Ducks. Lyles admitted as much.
That's basically evidence of the same third-party influence Adidas was accused of engaging in by the FBI by paying college basketball assistants to influence players to sign with the shoe giant.

The fallout, though, awaits. At best, Kelly might be a test case to how scared college administrators are of the FBI banging on their doors. At worst, guys like Kelly -- no matter how talented -- might have problems finding work as a new normal settles over compliance departments."
