I.e. much like Memphis they had to cheat to get there. They legit went in 1994 and 1999. From 2008-2013 a five year period during Tubby Smith's coaching tenor they went to the dance three times. Guess what, no cheating and their most successful period.

And 100% accurate is irrelevant without context.

It may be true that I punched a guy in the face. That makes me look like a violent thug.

Then you find out the guy I punched in the face was beating up your grandma, now I'm a good guy.

It's all about context.

2009
2010

2012
2013

That's 6 years. He won 1 NCAA tournament game in 6 years. You also failed to address his not finishing above .500 in conf play since 2007 or not making the sweet 16 since 2005. But there's no "context" you can spin there.

As far as NCAA violations, I said before that vacating wins is silly. Everyone knows who played in the F4. But I will sit back and just lol at Frank Haith. He's gotten busted at 2 schools and yet to make a sweet 16. Cheats and still sucks.

Memphis' biggest sin in 2008 was not being named North Carolina. Until the NCAA starts dealing consistently with all programs, the vacated season thing will continue to be a joke.
