Blossomgame reportedly accepted money while in school

Former Clemson basketball standout Jaron Blossomgame reportedly took money from an outside source while still in school, according to a story from Yahoo Sports earlier this morning.

According to the article, Blossomgame was sent $1,100 by the mobile payment vendor Venmo.

Yahoo released the documents as part of its story Friday morning along with records and spreadsheets that federal agents uncovered on former NBA agent Andy Miller, who is at the center of the FBI probe that saw several coaches arrested last summer.

Last week, it was reported that eight of the 16 teams that the NCAA Selection Committee released as its top seeds at the time were involved in some way in the investigation. Clemson head basketball coach Brad Brownell was asked if Clemson was involved in the investigation.

In response to the question Brownell said, “I have not heard from anybody” in regards to the investigation.

The Clemson Insider was told by Assistant Athletic Director for Communications, Joe Galbraith, that Clemson is aware of the alleged charges of Blossomgame accepting money and it will release a statement later this morning on the incident.
