Former Arizona assistant Emmanuel “Book” Richardson was caught on federal wiretap telling aspiring agent Christian Dawkins that Wildcats head coach Sean Miller was paying star freshman Deandre Ayton $10,000 per month while he was enrolled there.
Here is an excerpt from ESPN:
While talking about Ayton, Richardson told Dawkins, “Sean’s got to get the [expletive] out of the way and let us work.” “We’ll see how Sean plays it out,” Dawkins said. “You know what he bought per month?” Richardson asked. “What he do?” Dawkins asked. “I told you — 10,” Richardson replied.
