So a little while back, my alma mater got in to trouble for creating 'Rocks for Jocks' classes for members of the basketball team. One of the classes was Basketball 101.

A) Three

B) Two

C) Four

D) One

Hopefully on purpose, though I guess if they thought it was a trick question then anything is possible.
