Jon Beason Appears To Be Pretty Involved in the U of M Scandle

Also among the revelations were damning details of Shapiro’s co-ownership of a sports agency – Axcess Sports & Entertainment – for nearly his entire tenure as a Hurricanes booster. The same agency that signed two first-round picks from Miami, Vince Wilfork and Jon Beason, and recruited dozens of others while Shapiro was allegedly providing cash and benefits to players. In interviews with federal prosecutors, Shapiro said many of those same players were also being funneled cash and benefits by his partner at Axcess, then-NFL agent and current UFL commissioner Michael Huyghue. Shapiro said he also made payments on behalf of Axcess, including a $50,000 lump sum to Wilfork, as a recruiting tool for the agency.

Mainly looks bad on U of M. I am to the point where I don't care what my pro teams players did in college.

Beason was actually just collecting royalties on behalf of the 7th floor crew.

Considering nearly every major team in the last decade has come under NCAA Investigations... I really don't see the big deal anymore. It almost seems normal like horsecollar tackles used to be.

There's investigations and then there's this. Paying for prostitution, abortion and bounties on opposing QB's?

Yeah.

Some of Beasons biggest fans here trashed our QBs character and morality over the Auburn accusations this offseason, wonder if theyre.gonna do the same to #52 now? Then again hes not a QB so probably not.
