There was a lot of potentially bad news in Yahoo’s Friday story about the FBI investigation into corruption in college basketball and a number of prominent names mentioned. In the ACC, some in pretty trivial amounts, we saw Brice Johnson, Tony Bradley, Brendan Haywood, Malcolm Brogdon, Jaron Blossomgame and Wendell Carter (see the main page for more on Carter).
Not trivial: Dennis Smith, who is listed with nearly $43,000 next to his name.
Note too that all of this is uncorroborated. Nothing has been publicly verified yet. Even still, it’s startling.
More startling: former NC State assistant Sean Miller, now at Arizona, was allegedly recorded discussing a $100,000 payment to star big man DeAndre Ayton.
