During his time as a crime boss, Franzese was involved on many incidents of "fixing" NCAA games. After being indicted on numerous counts of "mafia" crimes, Franzese now spends his time lecturing NFL, MLB, NCAA and many more alliances about the insides of game fixing and much more.He has been featured on many shows such as Jim Rome is Burning. This will be an extremely interesting lecture that I believe is free. Check him out and then walk over to the USF -Florida baseball game.http://www.michaelfranzese.com/main/gambling.aspx

At the conference (National Association for Campus Activities) each speaker has roughly 20 minutes to give a portion of their presentation to entice programming boards to bring them to campus, but certainly the snippet I saw would make me want to come to his full presentation.
