March Madness has an entirely new meaning this year.

The annual NCAA Tournament begins in earnest Thursday with the sport under a cloud of suspicion and uncertainty. In fact, capital “M” March Madness now should refer solely to the accusations swirling around so many of the sport’s programs. The tournament, once reliably a feel-good story on the sport’s calendar, has been demoted to March madness and this year is more a glaring reminder of FBI investigations and ledger notations.

The good news is there is one group of people out there who can fix things. The fix can even be relatively quick.
