Weekend Hot Clicks: TCU Put on Probation After Light Bulb Scandal

I can’t possibly introduce the TCU “scandal” better than Mac Engel of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram:

“The question has often been asked: How many football players does it take to screw in a light bulb? And TCU bravely sought to find the exact answer through its own athletic department. What we learned is that not just football players can do the job. Men’s and women’s basketball players are required to help to complete the arduous task.

"The answer is 33.”

The NCAA put TCU on probation late last week after an investigation into student-athletes’ on-campus jobs.
