Well that's your opinion and you are entitled to it. I honestly think that cheating in college is rampant (as far as payoffs and recruiting violations go). I have no inside knowledge or information, but that's just my opinion.

College sports to me is about mostly nothing more than money. Unfortunately the problem is the NCAA (who oversees it all while making the rules ), and I view them to be one of the most crooked organizations on the face of the earth.

Just because Cal is clean in the eyes of the NCAA doesn't mean he's clean. Marcus Camby and Derrick Rose would tell you otherwise.

Hell, Cam Newton and his dad are clean in the eyes of the NCAA. I'm not sure that's company I'd exactly want to keep.

How do you explain Butler being in back-to-back final fours? Their facilities suck and I can't imagine that Steven's is cheating.

All punishments/infractions are not the same. And we're talking about one black eye instead of two.

Plus UCONN won't have to vacate one, much less, two seasons.

Good luck Otis. The previous two teams that made the final four with Coach Cal got humiliated and were forced to vacate both tournament runs. For your sake, and the millions of annoying UK fans, I hope that doesn't repeat itself.
