WKU Lets Alleged Counterfeiting Hoopster Play
Problem: the NCAA doesn’t allow athletes to be paid, meaning that even though they are potentially making big time money for their schools, they aren’t seeing a dime of it. But Western Kentucky women’s basketball player Arnika Brown allegedly had a solution. Hint: it involved a really nice printer and a lot of ink.
Brown, the Sun Belt Conference Freshman of the Year last season, was indicted last week on 11 counts of forgery and five additional misdemeanor counts of “theft by deception” after police say she was caught trying to pass off the phony money at several local businesses. But fear not, Lady Hilltoppers fans - the BOWLING GREEN DAILY NEWS says that the school has determined that she can keep playing while she awaits trial.
Since when did Tom Osbourne start coaching women’s basketball?
