What the heck was University of Washington football coach Rick Neuheisel thinking when he participated in an NCAA men's basketball betting pool -- and won two years in a row -- in direct violation of NCAA rules?

Rick Neuheisel
"I'm just glad you guys didn't find out about that kegger I had with Eustachy."
A. "I was just trying to prove to UW boosters that I can win a championship of some kind."

B. "Honestly, who really considers a friendly little $20,000 pool 'gambling'?"

C. "At least they didn't find out the pool was sponsored by a University of Missouri fraternity and conducted at a Tallahassee strip club."

D. "I even had Roy Williams to curse on national TV in the pool. God, I'm good!"

E. "Everyone has their calling in life. Mine is flagrantly disregarding NCAA rules."

F. "You know, it's really time Pete Rose was admitted to the Hall."
