Default PAC 10 investigating Bush family

link

[ QUOTE ]
At issue is the San Diego-area home's connection with businessman Michael Michaels, who reportedly attempted to steer Bush toward signing with San Diego agent David Caravantes, and sought to handle Bush's marketing with a new firm he had founded.

State records showed construction was completed on the home in early 2005 and Michaels purchased it for $757,500 in late March, the website reported.

Neighbors told Yahoo that Bush's mother Denise Griffin, stepfather LaMar Griffin and brother Jovan Griffin moved into the home shortly after that.

NCAA rules prohibit student-athletes and their families from receiving extra benefits from agents or their representatives.

Bush eventually signed with a different agent and marketing firm.

Anyone know what kind of penalties could come if they are proven guilty?

USC will probably go on some sort of weak probabtion for a couple years. An isolated incident by a player won't end up hurting them that much. Doesn't sound like he was connected with the school.

Wonder if the fact he didn't sign has something to do with the info getting "leaked"

How did this not raise red flags immediatly after they moved in? There is no way that family is rich enough to afford a $750,000 home.

He didn't actually gave them the house, they were just living there.
