Dick Cady, the Pulitzer Prize-winning co-author of Breaking Cardinal Rules, says he believes the escort’s claims about the Louisville basketball program.
Cady says the book has been “thoroughly vetted” and he conducted numerous interviews with the escort and other witnesses.
Here is an excerpt from WDRB.com:
She brought along her journals that claim she was paid for providing escort services to U of L players, recruits and some of their fathers from 2010 to 2014.“Well, I read it to find out whether or not it was believable and whether or not it would be provable,” Cady said.
Cady says that he and a publisher met with Powell 40 to 50 times during a six-month period. From phone calls and text messages to receipts and pictures, Cady says they have the proof.
They interviewed dancers and tried to talk with players, recruits and coaches.
“We did our homework, we did our job, we gathered the facts and sought to find the truth,” he said. “And we believe that the book itself is pretty convincing.”
