NEW YORK (AP) -The New York Times is reporting that the NCAA is looking into the academic history and recruitment of former Kentucky star Eric Bledsoe.
The report posted on the Times’ website late Friday says the NCAA has sent investigators to several places in Alabama to ask about Bledsoe, who declared for the NBA draft after one season with the Wildcats. Bledsoe graduated from A.H. Parker High School in Birmingham.
The Times said most of the questions center on Bledsoe’s academic history, payments made for an apartment shared by him and his mother, and whether his high school coach demanded money from schools that were recruiting him.
The NCAA does not discuss ongoing investigations, and Bledsoe and Kentucky coach John Calipari were unavailable to comment.
