SAN DIEGO (AP) — University of San Diego President Mary E. Lyons says she and the school’s trustees have “unwavering support” for men’s basketball coach Bill Grier and athletic director Ky Snyder as the FBI investigates a bribery case.
Two former players and a former assistant coach are charged in the case with running a sports betting business to fix games.
Lyons, Grier and Snyder spoke for the first time since federal authorities announced Monday that Brandon Johnson, the school’s all-time leading scorer, former coach T.J. Brown and former player Brandon Dowdy were among 10 people charged.
Lyons and Snyder say they’ve been told the NCAA won’t look into the case until the FBI finishes its investigation.
Grier says he wasn’t suspicious that anything was going on.
