Kansas does, everybody does. Here's the article mentioned earlier with Cal and Drew 1st and 2nd. Self isn't even mentioned except in the part where it says everybody.

Here's another top 9 -- Self isn't on it. http://www.totalprosports.com/2012/04/03/9-dirty-college-basketball-coaches/#10
And before we get too high and mighty, let's not forget we've been busted six times. If you talk to other B1G fanbases we'd probably get mentioned more than just about anybody in basketball. Remember the old Lou Boudreau suitcase story. Whether it was true or not, I guarantee that every Indiana fan has believed it for 40 years. Which is why I would take most of what I read on a Mizzou message board about Kansas with a grain of salt.

Who says anything about being high and mighty?

I can guarantee you that Illinois has not been as dirty as Kansas or Kentucky, though, or we would have won a lot more.

After the unprecedented sanctions in 1990, Illinois has tried their best to stay clean. You'll notice that over the years almost every time we've lost a major recruit to a program like Kansas, Kentucky, or Memphis shady stuff has come out. Even when we lost Snider to Louisville on signing day, we found out later what a cesspool that program was.

well, you were the one who brought 'of all time' into it. I will agree that since 1990 we've had to be clean or we were in deep trouble. That was the sixth time in 23 years. I peruse other boards and I do notice that Weber and now Groce have always gotten high marks for running clean programs. The only time that I saw anyone even suggest we paid to get Tilmon were a few guys on a UNC board.
And speaking of all-time, even though I don't think Kansas is any worse than a lot of programs I would dearly love to know what they had to do to get Wilt Chamberlain to leave Philly and a verbal commit to Indiana to flip on the final day to Lawrence. Must have been awesome.
