After one of its basketball coaches was caught up in nationwide scandal involving influence and money on NCAA coaches and athletes, the University of Arizona has initiated an independent review and hired outside counsel.
UA President Robert Robbins said in a statement that it has retained the law firm of Steptoe & Johnson to conduct the internal review.
Another law firm was retained to help the university with the Department of Justice's investigation and potential NCAA violations in the wake of assistant coach Emanuel Richardson's arrest.
Richardson and nine others were arrested last week.
Richardson is accused of accepting $20,000 in bribes and using some of the money to influence at least one unidentified recruit to play at Arizona.
Robbins also said head coach Sean Miller has not been accused of any misconduct in the case.
