LOS ANGELES -- A former associate of NBA star O.J. Mayo says that Southern California basketball coach Tim Floyd paid a man who helped get Mayo to play for the Trojans, Yahoo! Sports reported on Tuesday.
Louis Johnson, the former associate of Mayo's, told the Web site that Rodney Guillory told him that Floyd had given Guillory "a grand." Johnson said he was able to view $100 bills inside an envelope Guillory had.
This of course is a MAJOR violation and will probably put USC under suspension and his job. It is one thing for a booster to give money, a car, a job to a player, but for a head coach to give money away to a player is probably the biggest no no you can possibly do. Figuring the NCAA is already breathing down the USC football programs necks, it is sure to be onto the basketball team now. Looks like that Arizona job didn't look to bad after all.
