The South Florida men’s basketball program is under NCAA investigation for possible academic fraud issues, multiple sources told ESPN.
Assistant coach Oliver Antigua, the brother of head coach Orlando Antigua, has not been allowed to go out on the road recruiting this month, multiple sources told ESPN.
Orlando Antigua took over in 2014 after spending the previous six seasons under John Calipari — one at Memphis and five at Kentucky.
Oliver Antigua was previously an assistant for one season at Seton Hall before he was hired to join the USF staff in 2014. He spent more than a decade as the head coach at St. Raymond High in the Bronx.

If the NCAA is investigating South Florida for academic fraud, maybe they can also penalize them for not being located in South Florida.
