1978–79_Boston_College_basketball_point-shaving_scandal#cite_note-2–7-3

I chose this article because of my interest and sports and how gambling has had its effects on the different sports. I want to know about the craziest things that happened in sports involving gambling. The article tells us about the set up, the doing of the scandal , the uncovering of the scandal and the aftermath of it.

Evaluate the article
- Article is clear in the start and gives a nice intro to the topic, but could've did a better job explaining what point shaving is.

- Article keeps a clear unbiased throughout and states all facts and no opinions.

- The links and citations in the article all support the topic of the article and match it.

- All facts weren't supported with neutral, factual sources.

- The content is up to date as it matches even articles now that are written about this topic.

- I think the article could've included some of the info from the 30 for 30 documentary about the scandal.

- The talk page on this article isn't very active.

- Overall the articles gives a great overview of what happened and helps the reader understand it.
