On Tuesday in Manhattan, the cross examination of Brian Bowen Jr. will take place. He's implicated several college basketball programs and said that Louisville, Creighton, Arizona, Texas and others were bidding for the services of his talented son, Brian Jr.
$100,000? $150,000? $50,000?
What Bowen Sr. couldn't recall last week under oath was what, if anything, he'd gain financially if his son attended the University of Oregon. The defense's cross examination will likely revisit that subject on Tuesday in a United States District Courtroom. The NCAA basketball corruption trial has opened some spirited discussion nationally about amateurism, influence, and there are a lot of people asking important questions.
