Winning a championship unites the families and fans of that particular team. A championship is a goal for everybody, whether a conference championship or the NCAA championship. What will a coach and program do to win a championship? Basketball fans know all the hard work these players and coaches go through to fulfill this feeling. The question in today's day in age is how far will a coach and program go to win a championship? We as basketball fans have seen it all in these past couple years. Whether it’s Louisville having to vacate their 2013 National Championship for their controversial sex scandal, the recent reports from Yahoo Sports showing that around 30 current and former players got paid hundreds of thousands of dollars, or New York Times reporting “two coaches had been part of a scheme to funnel money from the university’s apparel partner, Adidas.” Coaches and programs are breaking NCAA rules and violations to the point where the FBI has gotten involved, and it is not a surprise when you hear about a program breaking rules.
