20 years ago sports crossed over into entertainment and is no longer news reporting. Today’s sportscasters do not know how to properly source hard news before they release it. Yahoo Sports scoops everyone with the paper note/email of Dawkins expenditures/payouts. Did ESPN feel pressure to go with something they heard about Sean Miller and AZ to one-up Yahoo Sports? It’s looking more and more like they only have a singular source and have not heard the wiretapped conversation or even seen a transcript.
If this proves out to be fake news, how terrible for the Miller family. If it proves out to be true, then like Rollo said, let Rome burn.

Multiple media outlets reported this (timeline error)...ESPN to my knowledge has yet to own the error (shocker).
What they have reported, however, is that while rushing to clear Miles Bridges to play this weekend in light of this news, MSU claims he never took money from Andy Miller. But they did find that his family was treated to a meal from a different agent and Bridges "resolved" that matter by paying $40 to a charity. Huh? Regardless of ESPN's sloppy reporting...where there's smoke there's usually fire.
