The curious case of Brian Bowen, the player at the center of Louisville’s basketball scandal
Posted Oct 1, 2017
According to federal documents, Adidas officials Jim Gatto, Merl Code, sports agent Christian Dawkins and financial adviser Munish Sood “conspired to illicitly funnel” approximately $100,000 from Adidas to the family of “Player-10” (Brian Bowen) in exchange for his commitment to Louisville. The payment would also ensure that “Player-10” would retain Dawkins and Sood as representatives and sign with Adidas once entering the NBA.
