In his attempt to become eligible this season at Arizona, sophomore linebacker Santino Marchiol levied major accusations of misconduct against his former school, Texas A&M.
Marchiol and his attorney alleged to USA Today that the Aggies’ new coaching staff gave him money to host recruits on unofficial visits, exceeded NCAA rules during voluntary offseason workouts and forced him to run on an injured ankle.
The allegations against new Texas A&M coach Jimbo Fisher and his staff likely would constitute NCAA violations. The misdeeds detailed by Marchiol all occurred after UA coach Kevin Sumlin and his staff left College Station.
