During a luncheon at the Downtown Tip-Off Club in North Little Rock, Ark., on Monday, legendary UNLV basketball coach Jerry Tarkanian called the NCAA "the crookedest organization in our society."

Tarkanian was swarmed by NCAA investigations through his career and he sued the organization in 1992, with a settlement of $2.5 million being reached in 1998.
