It was one of the biggest sports scandals of the year - Rutgers basketball coach Mike Rice being fired for physically and verbally abusing his college players in practice, all caught on videotape. Now, for the first time since the firestorm erupted six months ago, the coach himself sits down with Robin Roberts in his first broadcast interview about his anger and its costs, his regrets, and his hopes for redemption. "I won't be perfect moving forward, but I've changed," Rice told Roberts. "Having that taken away, your dream job...and having it done in such a visible way...and hurting the people closest to me...it changes a person." The interview airs on "20/20� on FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 8 (10:00 - 11:00 p.m., ET) on the ABC Television Network.

Also: It's a brazen example of a doctor behaving badly that came to a head recently, and it was all caught on camera at Starbucks. Dr. Alvin Yee, a local Southern California physician who started to supplement his income by writing prescriptions for powerful painkillers out of a California Starbucks. Yee would meet patients at the popular coffeehouse at night for a fee as high as $600 cash and would write prescriptions for everything from Oxycontin to Adderall. It wasn't long before the Feds were tipped off to his questionable practice and began an eight-month sting investigation. In his first network interview since being caught, Yee defends his actions. Deborah Roberts' report also includes the unbelievable surveillance video.
