Five former Louisville players and recruits have reportedly confirmed the book's allegations.
For weeks, former Louisville players have denied accusations made in the book, "Breaking Cardinal Rules: Basketball and the Escort Queen." But on Tuesday, John Barr and Jeff Goodman of ESPN published a report in which five former Louisville players and recruits confirmed Katina Powell's claims that she was paid by former Louisville staff member Andre McGee to provide strippers for recruits and players at private parties in Billy Minardi Hall.
"I knew they weren't college girls. It was crazy. It was like I was in a strip club," one former Louisville recruit told ESPN.
