Schools identified by Yahoo! as having players who possibly violated NCAA rules include Duke, North Carolina, Texas, Kentucky, Michigan State, USC and Kansas. At least 25 players are linked to impermissible benefits, including Michigan State's Miles Bridges, Alabama's Collin Sexton and Duke's Wendell Carter.

At least six players were identified in the documents as receiving payments exceeding $10,000. They include Dallas Mavericks point guard Dennis Smith Jr., who received $73,500 in loans from ASM before he played for NC State; Brooklyn Nets shooting guard Isaiah Whitehead, who received more than $37,000 around the time he was a freshman at Seton Hall; and 2017 No. 1 NBA draft pick Markelle Fultz, who received $10,000.

Other teams with current or former players who allegedly received payments were South Carolina, Louisville, Utah, Xavier, Wichita State, Clemson and Alabama. Other players named include former LSU guard Tim Quarterman, former Maryland center Diamond Stone and former Kentucky center Edrice "Bam" Adebayo.

So, counting Louisville that makes 4 ACC schools (including all 3 from Triangle!) and non-ACC blue bloods Kentucky, Mich. St. and Kansas. It also includes SEC teams SC, Alabama and LSU.

BIG FISH!

How did they circumvent compliance? After all, if anyone, they should have known. Is there a compliance officer conference that Universities attend?

How would the school know that a player got money before they were even enrolled at the school? Do you really think that they would say yes if they point blank asked them?

Another question. If someone has the potential to make millions of dollars in a few years why would it be illegal for someone to make them a loan? I mean I know they want the contract to work as their agent when they turn pro and I know that the shoe company wants them to wear their shoes but is that an illegal quad pro quo? They don't have to sign with them or wear their shoes. They will easily be able to pay back the loans if they go pro. It would just be a business risk.
