Ban for Louisville basketball team
Louisville has announced a post- season ban for its men’s basketball team amid ongoing investigations into a sex scandal in which an escort alleged that a former staffer paid her and other dancers to strip and have sex with recruits and players. University president James Ramsey said Friday at a news conference that an athletic department investigation has revealed that some violations did occur. Ramsey said the ban is for the NCAA Tournament and the Atlantic Coast Conference tournament. Athletic director Tom Jurich and coach Rick Pitino also attended the news conference.
