U of L is looking into allegations of a former basketball staffer paying for prostitutes for U of L basketball players and recruits.
In an upcoming book, “The Breaking Cardinal Rules: Basketball and the Escort Queen” Katina Powell says she provided women for former staffer Andre McGee over a span of four years. Powell, a Louisville resident wrote the book with the aid of Indianapolis Star columnist Dick Cady.
Allegedly, Powell has hand written pages with bookings for McGee and players while also text messages from McGee.
The University of Louisville released a statement saying that the University first learned of the allegations when the Indianapolis Business Journal contacted the University’s sports information department seeking comment in late August.
