South Florida denies investigation

On Friday, we talked about the Fanhouse report that South Florida was being investigated by the NCAA for violations regarding a Terrelle Woody, a video and conditioning assistant that joined the staff as part of a package deal to land Gus Gilchrist.

Among other things, Woody is accused in the report of bringing Gilchrist to Game 4 of the NBA Finals in Orlando, of sitting in on open gym sessions, and of illegally running the players through workouts.

Well, Gilchrist's parents denying the accusations that their son went to Game 4 of the Finals. They have documentation showing that he not only flew home on the day in question, but that he went to doctor's appointment the next day.

South Florida has also released a statement saying that they have no record of the NCAA's probe into the basketball team.

The NCAA does not confirm or deny any investigations, but they do alert the school when it is under investigation.

More on this as news becomes available.
