Hasn't made a payment since taking the NCAA job in 2010: http://www.cbssports.com/collegebasketball/eye-on-college... Setting a really fine example there. We will get by. We will get by. We will get by. We will survive.

Personal integrity, however, is not, when you are the face of an organization like the NC 2A.
