A booster paid Camby while he was at UMASS and someone took Derrick Rose's SAT for him. Memphis should not have been penalized for what happened with Rose and the NCAA clearinghouse are the ones who should be a fault, not the university.

Coach Calipari knows what to say and when to say it. These are usually the slick guys who know how to bend things, but Cal has been given a bad rep for things he had no control over.

I usually agree with you, and I partially do this time.

However, I cannot make myself believe that Calipari has not done ANY wrong. I realize that the NCAA violations that were CAUGHT were things that Cal did not do.

Cal reminds me of a crime boss. He may not do the "hits" but he has to be the one ordering them. He may not give Camby money, but he may have told the recruiters and boosters to get him here by any means necessary and turned his back on it. He may not have taken the test for Rose, but he could have told people to get him to Memphis by any means necessary.

Calipari may not be covered in mud, but his hands have to be dirty.
