For those that don't have the time to follow the link, here's a key
excerpt.
On the increasing perception that teams can't contend at an elite level
without bordering on cheating:
"I totally disagree. I respect [that] opinion, but I totally disagree. I
believe you can win with ethics, you can win with doing things the right
way. Nobody's perfect though, so let's not cast stones at glass houses.
... At the end of the day, it's about developing young people that are
17 to 23 years old. When they do make mistakes, I agree you've got to
teach them and help them through it, but we all should be held
accountable for the mistakes we make. ... At the end of the day, the
ones that get talked about most are the big issues."
