Lance Thomas purchased five pieces of custom diamond jewelry worth $97,800 on Dec. 21, 2009 while in the middle of his senior season at Duke. Thomas is being sued be a New York firm for failing to pay the balance of his bill.

Documents included with the suit indicate Thomas made a $30,000 down payment and received $67,800 in credit from the firm, the balance that remains unpaid.

Thomas started 39 games during the 09-10 season, which saw Duke go on to win the national championship.

Thomas played last season for the New Orleans Hornets.

A Duke spokesman said the university knows about the lawsuit and is looking into it.

''We have been made aware of a lawsuit filed by a jeweler against former men's basketball player Lance Thomas and we are currently looking into the matter,'' said Jon Jackson, the school's associate athletic director for media relations.

Why would this vacate their championship?

If he took out a legit loan on future-earnings, who cares?

Yup. They got away without having to forfeit their 99 final four appearance with Corey Maggette's ineligible ass.
