Did Steve Alford Cut Kobe Paras From UCLA Basketball to Keep Bryce on Scholarship?

The saga of Kobe Paras continues. A columnist from the Philippine Star has suggested Paras was cut so that Steve Alford could keep Bryce on scholarship.

While Kobe Paras has accepted a scholarship offer from Creighton, it seems that the buzz on what happened at UCLA just won’t go away.

The latest comes from an article on Philstar.com. For those who may not be familiar, Philstar.com is the website of the Philippine Star which is one of the leading English newspapers in the Philippines.
