Kentucky’s basketball recruiting scandal

The NCAA has announced that it’s opening an investigation into the Kentucky basketball program for serious recruiting violations. Specifically, they’re looking at improper gifts, including milk bones, rope tug toys and grooming sessions, that were part of the team’s recruitment of Fetch, the basketball-playing dog and a very good boy. Faced with these terrible allegations, Kentucky fans can’t help but wonder if Mr. Boots, the team’s basketball-playing pig, was also recruited unfairly. How devastating for them!

Bravo!
