((HT: WFAA-TV))
OSG Sports chronicled the fallout of a massive recruiting scandal involving the Dallas Independent School District. It went further than that with the catalyst being the death of a basketball player who was beaten to death by a housemate. The two students were positioned to live in a house that was not in the school district of either player. A DISD investigation confirmed the forging of eligibility documents to hide the fact that the students were only living in the house without their parents to play basketball...
And nothing else...which is a huge no-no around the world...
It ended with 15 coaches, administrators, and DISD front office personnel being fired- or, at least, the HQ thought it was over...
In one of the dumbest moves on record, the brother of two of the fired went after the WFAA-TV reporter, Brett Causey, who filed the investigation stories via Twitter. The brother is the two fired is now one of the fired by the DISD.
Here's the fallout after the threat...
Interesting note: WFAA-TV did an investigation of Snoop Johnson and his high school program back in 2012 that was along the same lines. Johnson, of course, denied the allegations.
