Re: The recent hiring by UK of a head men’s basketball coach whose former program now stands alleged of major NCAA violations.

Now you, Dr. Todd, as president of one of the most penalized schools in NCAA history, have hired a coach who may soon have Final Four trips from two different schools “vacated” due to rules infractions on his watch.
