Maryland men’s basketball Coach Mark Turgeon on Friday denied having any contact with the sports agency that was alleged in a news report to have made more than $14,000 in illegal payments to former Terrapins center Diamond Stone.
The report by Yahoo Sports, which details discoveries made in the ongoing FBI investigation into corruption in college basketball, described Stone as receiving $14,303 in payments from the ASM Sports agency, which was run by former NBA agent Andy Miller and his associate, Christian Dawkins.
Turgeon was expected to meet the media on Friday afternoon, along with his team’s three seniors, ahead of Saturday’s regular season finale against Michigan in College Park.
