This is from a report on the trial recounting a meeting (filmed by the FBI) during which two of the defendants discussed the idea there "should" be more murders in their space, given that they have no recourse if a player takes money, but does not attend the school he agreed to attend. Sood is a cooperating witness who pleaded guilty.
"That meeting came a month before Sood slipped Bowen's father nearly $20,000 cash in a parking lot — a payment made in exchange for the young Bowen to go to Louisville and forgo the University of Oregon, a 'Nike school.'"
