The three recruits who met with the NCAA provided information about how much money they were given by McGee at the parties to give to the dancers who stripped, the source close to the investigation said. “It’s a pathetic story,” the source said. “McGee gave the players a stack of dollar bills ranging from $200 to $500. Everybody in the room got the money—the recruits and the current members of the team. Not only that, but McGee himself had his own stack of dollar bills. If this guy’s spending $2,000 to $3,000 on a recruiting weekend, where’s this money coming from?”

On Thursday, a source told ESPN’s Dana O'Neil that Pitino—who has said he knew nothing about the parties—will be interviewed by the NCAA in April.
