Could this lawsuit answer the questions the NCAA needs to punish USC?
IMO, this gives it the limelight necessary for significant punishment to come down...where before, it was just getting passed over in the news...
But it still wouldn't surprise me if USC wiggles out of any sanctions...
The suit filed by Lloyd Lake on Tuesday in Superior Court claims Bush and his family received $291,600 in cash, living arrangements and other benefits between November 2004 and January 2006.
"We tried for over a year to resolve this amicably and Bush and his attorney didn't want to reach any resolution," said Lake's attorney, Brian E. Watkins. "They wanted the truth to come out. Now it's out."
Watkins said NCAA investigators are scheduled to meet with Lake on Friday in San Diego.
"We will answer their questions and provide them with documents and other evidence," Watkins said. "The lawsuit's out there. It spells it out. We've been putting the NCAA off for quite a while. We're going to agree to cooperate."
The suit comes nearly two years after allegations first surfaced and has prompted the NCAA and Pac-10 to launch their own investigation.
