Late last month, the half brother of highly regarded Texas men’s basketball recruit Mohamed Bamba posted a rambling, profane, 22-minute video to Facebook that accused Bamba of accepting illicit money, trips and other benefits from an adviser named Greer Love.
“Long story short, we let some guy into our family named Greer Love,” Ibrahim Johnson said in the video, which now appears to have been deleted. “This guy, Greer Love, he’s the vice president at Huron Capital Group, which is some financial group in Detroit. He’s a financial adviser, basically. He was Mo’s teacher back in the fourth grade or whatever, but long story short, now he’s Mo’s pimp. Mo’s his, basically.”
Johnson went on to say he had reported his brother to the NCAA, promising that Bamba would be ineligible to play for Shaka Smart at Texas this season. But on Tuesday, the NCAA issued a short statement in which it said Bamba and Love did nothing wrong.
