SMU men's basketball coach Larry Brown is facing a "lack of coach control" charge, sources said. The SMU men's basketball program is also facing an academic misconduct charge related to coursework by former guard Keith Frazier.

This is the third time the Hall of Famer has had his program face major NCAA charges. After previous infractions at UCLA and Kansas, both of those programs were hit with major sanctions.

Sources told Yahoo Sports that SMU had a multi-day hearing with the NCAA Committee on Infractions in late June. The first day focused on the golf allegations. The second day focused on men's basketball.

The guy didn't give a shite before, he certainly wasn't going to at 74.

For the entirety of Brown's career, he's either been good enough to coach in the pros or too old to give a shite about anything on the face of the earth. Given the exhaustive code by which the NCAA requires its members to comply, there is no reason to expect a coach to fit that description to come anywhere close to complying with NCAA regulations.

Larry Brown. John Calipari. Butch Davis. Jim Harbaugh. Bobby Petrino. Nick Saban. Steve Spurrier. Avery Johnson. Mike Krzyzewski. Tom Izzo. Rick Pitino. Eric Musselman. Tim Floyd.

There's no reason to expect any of these men to be clean. Not only that, but think of all the coaches who aren't good enough to be in the pros but still think that they are. They're probably even more cavalier about NCAA regs. The NCAA has written literally thousands of rules that they haven't the means to enforce.

I'm just saying it's harder to follow the NCAA's rules than to say, graduate from Southern University.
