Today new federal charges were released for NC State and Kansas basketball as reported by CBSSports.com.
From YahooSports.com which also has a link to the report.
The documents also officially pull North Carolina State into the investigation. The feds charge that Gatto was involved in a scheme to pay a former North Carolina State player – star recruit Dennis Smith Jr., according to the timeline of events in the complaint – $40,000 in the fall of 2015 to sign with the Wolfpack. Smith had played for an Adidas-backed AAU program, and NC State is an Adidas-backed athletic program.
The indictment says that at least one unnamed NC State coach knew about the plan and was involved in the alleged payment.
I have a feeling there’s going to be plenty more concerning this story before it goes away. Louisville and Miami were also named in the report, but without new charges.
