NCAA Scandal Tournament

Every wonder who the most corrupt college basketball programs are? Every wonder which one was/is the worst of them all? Well, so did Bob Cook of Flak Magazine, so he picked the top 32 and made a tournament out of it.

The champion? Kentucky barely edged out UCLA largely due to a longstanding tradition of cheating that has bridged several different coaches. Congratulations you crazy Wildcats!

The ACC is well-represented with Maryland, NC State and Clemson in the brackets. If you're like me, you're thinking "Clemson?" According to Cook, coach Tates Locke paid players in the 70s and then wrote a book about it. First I've heard of it. I guess they didn't pay very well.

It's a fun read with a lot of links to information about various scandals.
