Rick Neuheisel has admitted that he was part of a March Madness pool. That's usually not a problem, unless you're an NCAA football coach, you're betting college basketball games, and the NCAA is on the warpath to stop gambling at the college level.

I've never liked Neuheisel. He was a weasel at Colorado, and the probation proves that. His "personal probation" was a first for the NCAA -- and quite smart. Unfortunately, Skippy didn't get the message, and I truly doubt that he would have even if they'd used a clue by 4 to the head. He's a good ol' boy, and he'll do what his drinkin' friends do. Good luck in the NFL, Skippy. By the way, they'll let you do brackets as an NFL assistant, but I suggest you do all you can to learn how to be a good coach, not a handicapper of the first round of the NCAA tournament.
