'Package deal' for Rashad Vaughn draws scrutiny
Posted Dec 18, 2013
Pete Kaffey was an assistant basketball coach at Cooper High School in April and also the self-described “mentor” to Rashad Vaughn, the team’s star and one of the nation’s top prep players. But Vaughn left for a prep school near Las Vegas in July — and Kaffey was not far behind in joining him. By October, Vaughn was a rising star at Findlay Prep, a program in Nevada known as a pipeline for potential NBA talent. Kaffey, meanwhile, emerged as a Findlay Prep assistant coach.
