Quoted from the document linked above:

"Mike Miller, the well known and enormously successful basketball coach at City, was accused by his assistant, Howard Taylor, of fraud and other offenses. In a long and detailed statement, Howard alleged, among a number of charges, that fake grades had been issued to student athletes and that work claimed for payment was never done. General Counsel (Camille Goulet was away) noted that a report was due to them next week. There was no response from the Board once this was made clear."
