Deal with UNC's Ed Davis just Web hoax, agent says

Posted Feb 19, 2010
A sports agent in Chicago said Thursday he has talked to the family of UNC basketball star Ed Davis, but the 6-foot-10 sophomore's appearance on the agency's Internet clients list was a hoax. A crude biography of Davis showed up on PTA Sports Management's Web site Thursday morning, sending a ripple through Chapel Hill for a few hours until it was taken down. Signing with an agent would violate NCAA rules and make Davis ineligible to play for the Tar Heels again. (Greensboro News & Record)
