The head of the sports agency representing O. J. Mayo denied any illegal activity involving the former USC star, a day after ESPN reported Bill Duffy Associates gave cash to an event promoter who provided gifts.
“We are in contact with the NCAA and the Pac-10 and are working with both in a cooperative investigation to review these new allegations,” USC said in a statement issued later in the day.
Mayo, who sat courtside for Game 4 of the Boston- Cleveland second-round NBA playoff series, said he was hoping to get more information about the situation when he returned to school. Mayo has declared for the NBA Draft.
“I don’t think it’s good just because I’m really focused on the job, really wanting to do well on my workouts and my preparation, but at the same time it’s kind of a road block, another obstacle,” Mayo told The Associated Press. “I just want to get to the bottom of it and just find out what’s really going on.”
