KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP) – A spokesman says the Tennessee athletics department is looking into whether a Volunteers basketball player received free use of a Knoxville bar to film a music video, which may be an NCAA violation.
Athletics spokesman Jimmy Stanton declined further comment about a report in The Knoxville News Sentinel that Renaldo Woolridge received exclusive access to a portion of New Amsterdam Bar and Grill free of charge early Sunday morning to film a video.
Tennessee is currently under NCAA investigation for recruiting violations.
The News Sentinel reported that the use of the space was provided to Woolridge for free in an effort to support him and Tennessee athletics. Representatives of New Amsterdam did not immediately return a call from The Associated Press on Monday.
