Huh??? Adolph Rupp cheated? Where is your proof? For most of his coaching career he used players recruited from Kentucky high schools. Why would he need to cheat with them? No one accused Joe B. Hall or Rick Pitino of cheating whatsoever either while they coached at Kentucky. Sour grapes
There's some famous quote where Rupp said "as damn much as we are paying these players you'd think they could run the plays". Can't find it on google but come on man. They were right in the middle of that massive point shaving scandal in the 50s.
Joe B Hall is implicated on your very own history site and don't get me started on Eddie Sutton. He was our coach too.

Your link doesn't support anything you claim. Aside from the point shaving, which obviously Rupp would have done something about had he known, nothing is alleged against Rupp, Joe B. Hall or Pitino. I'll give you that Eddie Sutton cheated; that's why he was fired after 4 seasons.
