Self was cheating before he got to Kansas.

I will lay this out for everyone.  Look at their recruiting success BEFORE they had anything to sell to recruits.  If they are recruiting above their heads, it isn't because they are "a hot young coach" or "energetic" and isn't because of the "NBA style" of game they coach.

These kids care about money or who can get them to the NBA or both.  If a coach doesn't have a track record of getting players exposure by winning and getting deep in the tournament and/or developing players, they will only get blue chip kids by paying them.  There may be a few RARE exceptions but they are RARE.

Calipari and Self didn't stop cheating when they got to their blue blood homes.  I believe coach K may have cheated early in his career but stopped once he had success.  I think he is cheating again because he is trying desperately to keep the squid from dominating college basketball.  Miller is dirty as hell.  Hot co-eds aren't the secret to his success.  Yeah, they help but it is all about money and the NBA in the end.

If it seems too good to hear true, it probably is.
