He not only cheated, but told a bold face lie to the NCAA (when they had a picture of the recruit at his HOUSE).
On top of that, he snitched on Illinois. He made a high school player think he would give him a scholarship if he helped catch Illinois offering the kids teammate special benefits. Of course, he did never came through with a scholarship. He used the kid (a high schooler).
Illinois was not found guilty on that charge. When the NCAA dug around enough they did get some minor penalties.
One of the slimiest in this profession, but very charismatic and a good coach Xs and Os guy.
I wish him (and Auburn, the biggest cheaters in the SEC) nothing but the worst.
