Neither Athletic Director Dick Baddour nor Chancellor Holden Thorp would name names. Baddour said he couldn’t even say how many people were involved in giving improper benefits to players.
“It’s so varied I’m not prepared to speak off the cuff on that,” he said.
Asked whether it was safe to say that multiple agents are involved, he also hesitated and said he wasn’t sure how to answer.
“You kind of get wrapped up in who’s an agent, who’s not an agent, who was representing someone – was it a friend or whatever,” he said. “You should think about it in terms of agents, but you also have to think of it in terms of extra benefits and preferential treatment and all of that when you’re accumulating the dollars involved.”
