Stephen L. Hill Jr., a partner in the Kansas City office of the law firm Dentons, is quick to say that he doesn’t have the same knowledge Kansas Athletics does regarding the recent federal court case into college basketball corruption.
He can, however, give some insight into how a similar situation was handled by another blue-blood program — while perhaps giving a potential road map into how KU might proceed with Silvio De Sousa.
Hill, while serving as a U.S. Attorney in the late 1990s, prosecuted the Myron Piggie case, which also dealt with under-the-table payments made to college basketball players.
