Sort of OT: Adidas Guilty in Pay-For-Play Scheme

Link Here

A jury on Wednesday convicted the three defendants accused of pay-for-play schemes to influence high-profile basketball recruits to attend Kansas, Louisville and NC State.

Gatto, Code and Dawkins were accused of felony charges of wire fraud and conspiracy to commit wire fraud by paying money from Adidas to the families of recruits to ensure they signed with Adidas-sponsored schools, and then with the sneaker company and certain financial planners and agents once they turned pro.

Bad look for ACC as four of its schools involved in embarassing behavior recently: Louisvlle & NC State now, UNC's class fraud scandel and UVA losing to a 16th seed.
