I’ve read that it’s 2 of the 3:
Purifoy
Heron
Wiley

Almost certain Wiley is one of them. Those are the only possible NBA players on the team.

I've been wondering the same thing. Do they really have any NBA talent?

Gotta be two of these three.

No players took money. Most of the money was a bribe to the assistant coach. The parents of two players received a total of $18,500 for their sons to leave Auburn early.

They will be ruled ineligible, suspended for a certain number of games and then go pro.

Using the parents as a scapegoat again.

Wiley was clearly discussed by Person on a telephone call with the fbi witness.

Player 1 met with the fbi witness when AU was on a road trip to NY and allegedly had a step father. This, Player 1 can't be Wiley. Probably Heron, but maybe Purifoy.

Player 2 is likely Heron, Purifoy, or Wiley simply because they are the only ones that were discussed as potential NBA players at the time.

Leave early? I think it's just to steer them to those agents when they leave early or not.

Add another zero and that's a real familiar figure.

Sounds like you didn't read the indictments, but still have opinions on what they said.

Allegedly received money. Considering Person lied to the families about the credentials of the agent, it is entirely possible he lied to the agent about providing the families $ in return for future services when they were drafted. I think it is probable that Person kept the 90k himself or at least as likely as him paying a split of 18k to the two families.

Wiley's Father and Person are first cousins, so I do not think he would be working thru the Mother. Most are doubting Wiley was involved now.

The point is Wiley would have demanded a lot more money based on his talent and his father (former Pro Player) would have known the system and would have dealt with the agent directly. The other two were long shot draftees and would have fit the money profile.
