A newspaper report says the University of Kentucky will concede to the National Collegiate Athletic Assn. that someone in its basketball program sent a package with $1,000 inside to the father of recruit Chris Mills last year.
But the story in the Lexington Herald-Leader’s Sunday editions said the university’s investigation could not determine if then-assistant coach Dwane Casey placed the money inside. Casey denied sending the money and the Millses denied receiving it.
Kentucky officials will meet with NCAA enforcement staff members Saturday for a hearing on 18 allegations of wrongdoing lodged against the basketball program.
