Pat Forde and Pete Thamel of Yahoo! Sports gave us a nice little Friday morning bombshell with their latest report on the FBI’s probe in college basketball. Brace yourself, but the Villanova Wildcats and three former players are mentioned in the report.
First up, former players Kyle Lowry, Antonio Pena and Maalik Wayns are listed as having taken loans from ASM (their agency).
An ASM balance sheet in the hands of federal investigators shows accounts through Dec. 31, 2015, with the subheading, “Loan to Players.” It listed several who were in high school or college as receiving four-figure and five-figure payments from ASM Sports.
