Ulric Malagi was the one that got SMU in trouble. Busted at Texas A&M

Seth Davis @SethDavisHoops
Reading the affidavit quickly, Person is accused of taking bribe money to steer players to particular agents/financial advisors.

Bruce Pearl up to his old tricks...

Jonathan Givony @DraftExpress
Jim Gatto, one of the Adidas' head basketball honchos, being arrested is huge news. Could mean some big names in college are about to drop.

Saul Smith on the list?????? Asking for a friend

The better question is...why would anyone waste money on Auburn Basketball?

AAU system bout to be blown to kingdom come with this ****.

Tony Bland played under Jim Boeheim and Steve Fisher then coached under Steve Fisher.

Apple doesn't fall far. Can't really be surprised with that one...

Just wow! I hope this is the beginning of a huge sweep. College basketball recruiting is so dirty and corrupt and the ones who most often getting screwed are the young players.

Unnamed #6 school:

Names a "public research university in Kentucky with approximately 22,640 students."

Louisville enrollment: 22,640

Sounds an awful lot like Louisville will be one of the schools impacted. From this: https://www.justice.gov/usao-sdny/press-...1/download

On June 3, the alleged bribe scheme took place and "almost immediately" after, the player agreed to come to the university - (U of L)

I dunno if it was a typo, but i saw San Diego State mentioned in this somewhere.

Yup: Because of Tony Bland .. dunno if the allegations on him are during his time at SDSU or USC.

How many ECU players and coaches involved?

WOW.

Louisville has the dirtiest athletics program in college sports. This is the same school that just recently argued to the NCAA that buying hookers for players did not constitute a violation, because they were cheap!

They've got 2 absolute scumbags as HCs for their 2 major sports programs.

If the NCAA had a shred of integrity, UL would be massively hit with penalties and postseason bans. BUt they don't.
