I'm glad to see the hard penalty.

At least they were investagated... couple years ago here in Illinois, a team won the Class A State Championship. During the postgame interviews, the coach basically admitted to recruiting a player....... Oops!

It was Hales Franciscan, 2003. The IHSA still has them listed as champs, but has taken their picture off of the March Madness site. Coach London inserted foot into mouth in his excitement at winning with his 'recruited' squad.
