Louisville....again
https://www.nhregister.com/news/article/...225070.php

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — A former University of Louisville basketball assistant has pleaded guilty to a federal charge of attempted extortion and will avoid prison time.

Dino Gaudio was dismissed from the team along with another assistant in March after the Cardinals missed the NCAA tournament. During a meeting with coaches, Gaudio threatened to go to the media with alleged NCAA violations by the team, according federal prosecutors.


He pleaded guilty on Friday to a charge of interstate communication with intent to extort, which carries a maximum penalty of two years in prison, according to the U.S. Attorney's office in Louisville. Gaudio agreed to a plea deal that will include probation and a fine.

Gaudio, 64, threatened to expose alleged violations by the team “in its production of recruiting videos for prospective student-athletes and in the use of its graduate assistants in practices,” according to a charging document filed in May. He asked for 17 months of salary or a $425,000 lump sum payment, according to the U.S. Attorney.

Gaudio will be sentenced on Aug. 27.

He had been the head coach at Wake Forest University from 2007-10. He then spent eight years as an ESPN analyst before joining Louisville in 2018. Gaudio also previously led Army and Loyola-Maryland and worked with Louisville coach Chris Mack at Wake Forest.

When it comes to allegations of cheating, UNC fans should probably leave that topic alone.

Well aren't you the pot.
You might want to tone that rhetoric down a bit, lest you want to drag up all of the steroid use, multiple rapes, and other assaults on females that marked Beamer's rise to prominence.
Druckenmiller was the tip of the iceberg.

Key words in bold above.

Let's see if there's really anything to this before condemning the school.

Because right now, all I see is a fired assistant coach 1 year away from retirement trying to take advantage of the most profitable basketball program in the country who is vulnerable to the minor allegations he made. In any other circumstance, the school would laugh that guy out of the room. Given the perilous situation U of L has with the NCAA, they did the right thing, and went straight to authorities.

Louisville... hiring a guy from... Xavier.

That's like hiring Willie Nelson to run your cannabis store.

It’s college basketball and cheating is rampant. Louisville is one of the most egregious offenders and has been for decades. Nothing new here.

You're going to jeopardize your Magna *** Laude in African American Studies from UNC Chapel Hill if you keep talking like that.

Why, didn't they already drop it in the mail?

I got mine at a VT@UNC football game. They broke my window and left it on the seat.
