The Associated Press asked 84 top universities with major basketball programs as well as six top conferences about their response to a federal corruption scandal that has overshadowed college hoops as the season gets ready to begin.
Of 64 schools that responded, 28 said the probe prompted their own internal reviews. So did the Pac-12 conference, which formed a task force to dive into the culture and issues of recruiting. Another 36 schools and the Big East Conference said they were not specifically responding to the federal probe, though many of the “no” responses came with the caveat that the school’s athletic department is always reviewing its compliance.
Here’s a full list of how each school and conference responded to the question: “Are you reviewing your own basketball program – internally or with a consultant – as a response to the federal probe?”
