Tyronn Lue on NCAA Corruption Probe: I Wasn't Good Enough to Get Paid

Cleveland Cavaliers head coach Tyronn Lue had a self-deprecating answer ready when he was asked about the FBI's probe into corruption and bribery in college basketball.

"I wasn't good enough to get paid so it really didn't matter for me," Lue told reporters prior to Friday night's game against the Memphis Grizzlies, according to ESPN.com's Dave McMenamin.

The 23rd pick in the 1998 NBA draft, Lue spent three seasons playing for the Nebraska Cornhuskers before he bolted for the pros.

Lue's remarks came on the same day Yahoo Sports' Pete Thamel and Pat Forde reported federal documents show former NBA agent Andy Miller, his associate Christian Dawkins and ASM Sports funneled money to some of college basketball's biggest programs and most talented prospects in recent years.
