Good thing they didn't start cheating until just AFTER they won the title - how fortunate!

time for Jimmy B to hang it up. I'm not sure what else he has to prove up there; who needs redemption at this point?

Agreed. I suspect this will be the catalyst.

This gives credence to something that I have often posted through the years here. A comment made to me by Greg Shemitz when he used to publish Big East Briefs.

He noted in his opinion that that the dirtiest program in the east and one off the worst in the country was Syracuse. It took many years but what he said has come to pass.

Next up North Carolina.

Absolutely - you have related this story from time to time - and I have heard it from independent sources as well.

Honestly, it took a very long time to catch up with him. My over-under for when Calamari has to vacate his KY championships is ten years.

Not a great situation for Head Coach in waiting Hopkins. He should have left for greener pastures when he had the chance.
