"Joe B told me to go and switch the style up; and if they hate, then let 'em hate, and watch the titles pile up." Well, we can't act like we didn't see this one coming. We've known all week that CBSSports.com would released its "Who is perceived by college coaches to be the biggest cheater" exclusive from a poll of coaches, and here it is, looking just like we expected. Our very own John Vincent Calipari is the biggest cheater in college basketball, as voted on by his peers and fellow coaches. Scott Drew is a close second: John Calipari (Kentucky): 36 percent Scott Drew (Baylor): 34 percent Ben Howland (UCLA): 12 percent Jim Calhoun (Connecticut): 7 percent Tom Crean (Indiana): 3 percent Dave Rice (UNLV): 3 percent One coach said, "Cal probably doesn't have to cheat now as much as he used to, but he's still the standard. The rest of us can't even deal in his league. He's the best." Another said, "They all [expletive] cheat. Every high-level coach cheats." Big Blue Nation says, "Haters gonna hate."
