Dick Vitale, college basketball's biggest fan, is 'fed up' and wants the game cleaned up
Posted Nov 2, 2017
Dick Vitale might want to still be college basketball’s biggest cheerleader, but at age 78, he’s becoming one of its biggest cynics in the wake of an FBI investigation that has exposed the culture of corruption and backroom deal-making that has long been accepted as part of the recruiting landscape. “I’m fed up with this. “I love the game and care about it so much. It just frustrates me.”
