No Evidence Found

Fresno State announced that an internal investigation has found no evidence of point-shaving by its basketball players. The report did concede that the university lacks the subpoena or investigatory powers of the federal government.

The FBI and a federal grand jury are investigating allegations that Bulldogs guards Dominick Young and Chris Herren shaved points at the behest of gamblers last season. Both have denied point-shaving, an illegal practice in which a player tries to keep a team’s winning margin below the point spread to benefit certain gamblers.
