The University of Louisville is taking the next step in the NCAA case regarding allegations of strippers and prostitutes in the men’s basketball dorm.
Louisville will submit its response to the NCAA’s notice of allegations tomorrow.
Here are details from the Courier-Journal:
The University of Louisville has confirmed it plans to submit its response to the NCAA’s notice of allegations on Tuesday, its deadline to do so.
U of L does not plan to hold a press conference or send out a public release about the response, school officials said. Once it receives U of L’s response, the NCAA’s enforcement staff will have 60 days to review the institution’s arguments and counter again before the case goes before the NCAA’s Committee on Infractions at a later date, likely this spring.
The NCAA outlined four allegations in its notice in October, and U of L athletics director Tom Jurich and interim president Neville Pinto indicated the university planned to dispute the item saying coach Rick Pitino failed to monitor former director of basketball operations Andre McGee.
McGee, who the NCAA said refused to cooperate with the investigation, is accused of paying thousands of dollars and providing game tickets to women in exchange for them dancing for and having sex with U of L players and recruits.
