Corruption at the University of Miami: An Abridged Mahābhārata

Anyone really setting out to chronicle the endless history of filthy athletics at the University of Miami would have to use as their model the 200,000 verse Indian epic. But given modern journalism’s space constraints, the task instead is to summarize as briefly as possible the long venerable ages of trashiness that are UM.

UD thinks Jerry Iannelli does a respectable job in this New Times piece, written in anticipation of an FBI indictment against UM’s basketball program.

  1. Jay Smith Says:

    Funny that Sports Illustrated chastised Miami for admitting a football player with a 200 SAT verbal. Dean Smith saw to the admission of a basketball player with a 200 SAT. One of his teammates, a true high achiever, scored a 280. But at least he stayed eligible long enough to win some championships. It’s the Carolina Way.
