Former Ute Kyle Kuzma linked to report he received cash while a student

SALT LAKE CITY — A new report released Friday links former Utah star Kyle Kuzma to an FBI investigation into the NCAA for improper benefits to student-athletes.

The report, which was published by Yahoo Sports, says Kuzma may have received at least $6,500 and up to $16,000 while enrolled in school, according to the documents provided by Yahoo. One document, a balance sheet for sports agency ASM Sports, lists a loan to Kuzma for $6,500 and $9,500 in December 2015. Another document shows a loan for the amount of $12,000 going to Kuzma, but with “not signed” and “collecting back July/August” as part of the expense report.
