    And you wonder where the thought that college athletes get special help came from...

    The NCAA today released the final (and only) exam given in the course "Coaching Principles and Strategies of Basketball" course taught by then assistant coach Jim Harrick, Jr. at the University of Georgia in 2001.

    20- In your opinion, who is the best Division 1 assistant coach in the country?
    a. Ron Prusa
    b. John Pelphrey
    c. Jim Harrick, Jr.
    d. Steve Wojciechowski

    And, no, I didn't make questions 19 and 20 up. (Though, I did successfully spell Krzyzewski without cheating)

    God, looking at that test, the bigger fraud would NOT be getting an A. For anyone with a passing knowledge of basketball, and the University of Georgia, the only tough question would be #11, and he even stacked that one. (The "How do the Grits taste Exam"?!??!) It's so bad you almost have to laugh...
