The three defendants in the college basketball corruption trial were all found guilty of defrauding schools.
The trial, the first of three that are scheduled to involve corruption in college basketball, centered around an Adidas executive (Jim Gatto), an Adidas employee (Merl Code) and a potential agent (Christian Dawkins) funneling money to the families of basketball recruits.

The government claimed the three men defrauded the schools, their business partners, by paying players against the wishes of the school and rendering them ineligible.
