Coaches Roundtable: How much do coaches really know?

Insider Men's College Basketball, SMU Mustangs, Connecticut Huskies, Vanderbilt Commodores, Evansville Purple Aces, Providence Friars, Indiana Hoosiers, Wichita State Shockers, Florida State Seminoles

Among the three of them, Seth Greenberg, Fran Fraschilla and Dan Dakich have more than 40 years of head-coaching experience at the Division I level. Each week, they get together to discuss the hottest topics in college basketball. 

1. SMU coach Larry Brown said he had nothing to do with an administrative assistant committing academic fraud for junior Keith Frazier, which resulted in a postseason ban for the Mustangs. Is it possible that Brown didn't know what was going on?

Dakich: You hire people for a reason, and I would imagine the person who did that was hired because Larry knew that he or she could get things done. When it comes to fraud and academics, you know what you choose to know. I don't buy any of it. When you're 3-for-3 (in schools committing NCAA violations) -- and we all have respect for coach Brown -- that's not a fluke. You know what you want to know.
