UNC's Blake took 'gifts' from agent
Posted Oct 5, 2010
Lawyers for former North Carolina associate head coach John Blake said Monday that agent Gary Wichard provided "gifts" to Blake to pay for Blake's son's private school tuition while Blake was coaching at North Carolina. William Beaver, Blake's Orlando-based lawyer, said in a teleconference call that Wichard gave Blake money for the tuition once in 2008 and twice more in 2009.
