Title: Auburn Assistant Basketball Coach Caught Up in College Admissions Scandal Post by: Marshal Dillon on March 11, 2019, 10:52:04 PM Well, this is an interesting take about bribery & why it's used. Read article.
Quote Allen testified that former Penn assistant, and current first-year Auburn assistant Ira Bowman knew of the scheme, and was subsequently brought into it after Allen was fired by Penn in 2015. According to Law360.com, after being fired, Allen set up a separate account where Phillip Esformes would wire money, and Allen also gave Bowman a debit card to access the account. https://www.al.com/auburnbasketball/2019/03/report-auburn-basketball-assistant-ira-bowman-allegedly-tied-to-federal-bribery-trial.html (https://www.al.com/auburnbasketball/2019/03/report-auburn-basketball-assistant-ira-bowman-allegedly-tied-to-federal-bribery-trial.html) :popcorn2: Title: Re: Another Auburn Assistant Basketball Coach in Trouble?

Title: Re:Auburn Assistant Basketball Coach Caught Up in College Admissions Scandal Post by: Marshal Dillon on March 12, 2019, 03:16:48 PM Huge scandal with 50 persons indicted including 33 parents.
Quote Actresses Felicity Huffman and Lori Loughlin were among more than four dozen people charged in a nationwide college admissions cheating scandal that involved wealthy individuals paying up to $6.5 million to place their children into elite universities, according to court records revealed Tuesday. The alleged scam -- which placed students into top colleges such as Yale, Georgetown, Stanford, University of Southern California, UCLA and the University of Texas -- was run by William Rick Singer, from California, who helped parents get their children's college admission through bribes, court documents unsealed in Boston showed. Officials have been investigating the case, named "Operation Varsity Blues," for more than a year https://www.foxnews.com/us/college-entrance-exam-cheating (https://www.foxnews.com/us/college-entrance-exam-cheating) :popcorn2: Title: Re: Auburn Assistant Basketball Coach Caught Up in College Admissions Scandal Post by: Marshal Dillon on March 12, 2019, 03:20:35 PM The sailing coach at Stanford, womens soccer coach at Yale, and so on.

Title: Re: Auburn Assistant Basketball Coach Caught Up in College Admissions Scandal Post by: Hannibal Lecter, MD on March 14, 2019, 07:29:08 AM So I suppose you guys know that one of the folks involved was the "College Admissions Prep" guru at IMG Academy. He was taking tests for students @ $10k a pop. IMG has put a lot of kids in the SEC the last few years, including many highly ranked recruits at Alabama.
There are at least 3 players on the team last year from IMG, including Dylan Moses (only his last season or two after transferring from University Lab in Baton Rouge). Two more coming in this year - our 5-star OT Evan Neal and 5-star RB Trey Sanders. Keep your fingers crossed!!!
