Texas found no evidence to substantiate allegations made by Brian Bowen Sr.

On Thursday, the college basketball corruption trail featuring former agent Christian Dawkins and Adidas employees Jim Gattor and Merl Code featured an allegation made by Brian Bowen Sr., the father of former top recruit Brian “Tugs” Bowen II, that former Texas Longhorns assistant Mike Morrell offered to “help with housing” for Bowen Sr.

The allegation was arguably the least bombastic claim made by Bowen Sr. during the trail — Arizona supposedly offered $50,000, Oklahoma State supposedly offered $150,000 and $8,000 for a car, and Creighton supposedly offered $100,000 and a “good job” — but could have violated NCAA rules.
