UM Hurricanes athletic director discusses Adidas trial: ‘It’s good to have it behind us’

More than a year after an FBI sting led to the arrest of 10 college basketball assistant coaches and apparel company executives, the Miami Hurricanes finally can feel comfortable their connection to the investigation is in the past.

Miami was one of the schools listed — although not by name — in the initial FBI complaint last year and was mentioned several times throughout the ensuing trial last month. The Hurricanes were ultimately redacted from the indictment during one of the final days of the trial, which led to guilty verdicts for Adidas executives James Gatto and Merl Code, and agent Christian Dawkins.
